Im heading out to the Chrysler Classic in Columbus Ohio next weekend with all the stuff Im not going to use.

This post is more or less a case of me trying to use up stuff I've had laying around for a long time but in the long run I think the best and most satisfactory outcome can be achieved by me taking all this stuff to a swap meet and cutting it loose and just buying what I need.

Thanks Tom, the logic wasn't lost on me, as a matter of fact the same thing was suggested by one of my friends who builds engines

Its actually going in a 1966 Belvedere 4 door and probably wont see a lot of performance use. I will probably just get rid of that cam and go with one of the smaller RV style cams. I know that the Mopar performance 430 lift cams made a ton of low end in motors with low compression so I might...

Just looking at the comp. ratio calculator and it came out to 8.175 with the 80 cc head and pistons .100 in the hole with .042 head gasket

I have a stock 440 short block thats been freshened up and balanced but it just has the cast low compression pistons, I dont have any heads that are done and was considering buying the 440 source stealth heads to use on it because they are closed chamber and everything would be brand new. I'm...

Best car I ever had was a 1963 Dart that was gutted and had a 340 and it ran 7.90 in the eighth mile and cost a grand total of $750

Yeah, thought about looking around for a dual plane, its already got an Edelbrock carb and I got some pretty valve covers. Just need a cheap set of headers and I'm done.

You talked me in to it, Ill just bolt it together and go.

I have a rebuilt 440 short block that I picked up from a friend and it's got the TRW flat top replacement Pistons that are like .060 in the hole. Does anyone know what compression these are? Trying to use up all my garage finds and I came up with a 440 Torker intake, a Speedpro hydraulic cam...

Right now I'm leaning towards just stick it in there and ride with stock heads and all. Long rams are a great suggestion, I've used them before but currently they cost more than I paid for this car. I think I will drop it in with some pretty valve covers and intake and call it a day. Just bought...

Yeah, I have some 452 castings that my buddy said they could mill the heck out of and they would work out fine. Probably go with them and stay low buck and just spend some money on the Hughs cam. Not familiar with the sidewinders so I guess I need to look them up.

I dug out my 516 heads and I think that by the time I replace everything I'm probably going to have $500 in them. Anybody have any experience with the 440 source aluminum heads? I might be better off just buying them

Up till about 6 months ago I had a stack of stock 440 cams and I'm with you guys, I would have used that too. Last year we sold our building where I had all my stuff for the last 20 years, 250,000 square foot, and I had to stuff everything into my 50x60 barn, my daughters 40x60 barn and my sons...

The gear ratio I will be running is probably 3.23 because I have a couple of those around. Right now it has the stock 14 inch tires and hub caps but I will be changing to some better looking wheels and tires probably around 275/60/15's in the back. I bought this car on a whim on my way to...

I picked up a 440 short block today from one of my buddies, 1966 block(67 model year) and forged crank and rods .030 with the old flat tops that were 100 in the hole. All rebuilt and balanced and waiting for me to add heads and cam and stick it in my Belvedere. My question is whats a good cam...

All the differences are internal, if you ever have seen an original Hemi A body you can see that there is no room in the engine compartment to accommodate anything larger. Some of the new hemi blocks have the ability to be bored out a lot larger than the originals allowing you to make a bunch...

You have obviously never driven a Viper, There aint nothing safe about them. Not only are they a lot lighter than an original Hemi car but they produce more rear wheel horsepower( my sons had 432 rwh on the dyno at the mopar nats) and they don't have anti lock brakes or traction control or any...

Same outside dimensions, only the bore and stroke are different. Actually a pretty easy swap. Why do a 528 when a 572 only cost a few more dollars?

Actually the years are 67 and older or 68 and newer,I found out while building a Hemi Dart about 19 years ago that the 1967 shock towers had to be moved back to accomodate a Hemi. The 68 and later are a smidge wider. You still cant get your hand between the valve cover and the fenderwell on 68...

The main question is whats your budget? The 360 is a relatively simple project with inexpensive(and easy to find) parts into a platform that was meant to use it. Where as the 440 swap consist of harder to find,more expensive parts which are going into a platform that was a handeling compromise...
