lol @ dupont overhaul

yeah buddy!

my 400B is sitting in a '74 duster with HDK. will check soon it looks like it's going to be a close call with the performer rpm. gotta get the hood painted and attached first.

have you met Bucky? google: bucky hess

the iron block will work fine. get one. then get urself a 572 stroker kit for it. call these guys they can get you the rotating assembly or help you piece one together if you want to buy your own parts. http://www.musclemotorsracing.com/engines/hemi-killer-krate.html they want 13k for a...

if you got an extra 3k get the hemidenny kit. gives you way more room, more options for engines (small block, big block B, big block RB, gen 3 hemis, gen 2 hemi), tighter steering, coil overs, very sturdy kit... also it replaces all your front end parts in one swoop. and drop about 50 pounds...

well one option i may have to go with is a 2" high air filter with one of those fancy filter tops according to the calc on their site, i need 400 cid X 6000 (max rpm) / 20,839 or 115 square inches for a 2" high X 14" diameter filter, the area is so that is 14 X 3.14 X 1.25 or = 55 sq...

i already got a performer rpm on my 400 B so if it dont fit i'm gonna use a shoehorn or get a 1 FOOT drop base or sawzall or whatever it takes lol

for the 6pak money you could go efi. 4bbl would be to save money. EFI are what many are going to nowadays, as the price has come down some. works better than carbs, easier to tune and better mpg. and more power. again 4bbl carb is by far the cheapest route. 6pak you will be buying lots of doodads

lots of people are going with the bolt on efi's now instead of carbs. tunes itself across all the ranges (self learning) so you end up with max hp at all rpm's. the bad: costs big $$$ and then you need upgraded fuel supply system as well. but yeah holley 950 or look into a pro systems 950 for...

my eddy rpm's for my 400 B were fine out of the box... the machine shop checked everything over. the only thing they did was slightly mill them to bring the comp up to 10:1 and make the intake match up better since they zero decked the block... but i was a lucky one.

http://bangshift.com/general-news/new-products/sema-2014-trick-flow-introduces-new-power-port-240-big-block-chrysler-cylinder-heads-new-option-wedge/ requires certain bore size, i dont think will work for 383's outflow the eddy victors, looks like it doesnt require offset rockers

what trans / converter do you have in there roc

HV is dangerous, you can run out of oil quickly at the pickup. If you keep the oil at the proper level, and have that 7qt pan it has advantages. for a street car, at 2000 rpm stuck in traffic on a 95 degree day, you will still have great oil pressure. it also allows you to run 10/30 or 10/40...

beware ebay stuff. some is ok some is trash. 50/50 chance. just get the kb's but first... before you get pistons i'd get the block over to a machine shop get it tanked / bores cleaned up /checked new gasket kit. felpro. you dont want a leaky pete have shop check cam / main / rod bearings...

true, bruce. but once he goes over to the big block dark side he will never go back.

i'd keep the polara together, get a 440 or 400 from a salvage yard and go after that instead get it all built up and plunk it in. i'd also see if a local machine shop will help you learn / help you port the heads. that way you avoid some mistakes plus they can help you clearance everything...

as a reference i got my results from the shop today they dynoed my budget 400 build. 2500 for eddy top end kit (comes with a cheap hyd cam & lifters .480 ex / .495 int 300 or so duration). kb240 pistons 10:1 i cheaped out didnt bother getting another cam. 750hp carb got 470hp i'll get the...

pricey but probably not in your budget... i posted this on another thread

if you got the money get a gen2 hemi. it can do 7 ,8 ,900 hp on pump gas. gonna cost you 18k-20k though, pan to carb(s) http://raybarton.com/parts/index.php/engines/street-series-hemi.html but to be honest, when you pay 5k for an aftermarket B or RB block, then your stroker kit 2k+, then all...

yes keep it. they are used in the "451 stroker" also if you google "440source stroker kits" you will find that they offer kits to make those blocks into stroker monsters lol they are generally a bit stronger than 440 blocks.

indy KB mopar performance indy you can buy the complete engine, all different configs, heads cranks etc

your 915's aint junk... not right for your build but to someone out there they are a treasure. there is probably someone with a 440 numbers car tryin to restore it and one of their heads is cracked, and they are lookin for you! you really should call IQ52 and discuss i bet he can hook you up...

this car is nastyyyyy you will have every granny within 5 miles callin in complaints on you guarantee it lol.

http://users.erols.com/srweiss/tablehdc.htm flow at .600 lift (cfm, unported heads) 906's 235 or so 516's 223 or so eddy rpms 275 or so stage Vi 324 or so brodix B1 362 or so those are all before porting. you can use whatever heads, but your results may vary if you are goin all out race...

if you are stroking it the kits come with rods/pistons/crank thus bob's answer that being said just 400 c.i. will put out a lot of power if you are building it right. if it's racing get 12:1 pistons run race gas get some good heads on there if it's street get 10:1, get heads if you can...

there are several types of headers that will fit without cutting fenderwells schumacher, tti, dougs, etc.

the whole point of you wanting the biggest stroke possible is to keep your rpms down? gen2 hemi factory stock redline was 7000 lol. just get urself a hemi crank and build from there :finga: get ur 8 bolt flange and dont look back 8000 rpms you could build that in ur backyard...
