    4 speed bellhousing

    Did my build over 7 years ago. Got numbers mixed up. I originally bought an 11 and it didn't fit well with the under chassi headers. The. Bought a 10.5. Got my 10's and 11's mixed up in previous post...corrected now.

    K Frame Question.

    You might not know until you start to mock up. All I know is I had a bunch of people say my 1970/6 stealing linkage will be fine, yet I had to swap the linkage out for 73 v8 linkage for it to work Phil

    4 speed bellhousing

    I used a stock 11.5 inch bell housing I believe on my 440 4 spd. I think it was 11.5 anyways. I know I used a stock 318 flywheel. Don't know about scatter shields. Think it could also depend on motor mounts or motor plate. I think you might be able to use a bigger bell with motor plate...

    Big Block Conversion, do it again?

    I would do big block again. and I don't understand why people complain so much on the build. Its not all that hard, just not a direct bolt in. minor modifications are needed. I have not and NEVER would do fender well headers. Take no offence, but fender wells look disgusting to me. 440 4...

    Starter for a 130 tooth flywheel need help!!

    I used a 10.5 with 130 tooth. Here is the build. http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=33454 I remember I bought the larger bell housing originally, but it didn't clear headers and torsion bars or something. ( I have full length under chassi headers.)

    Starter for a 130 tooth flywheel need help!!

    What size bell housing? That was my mistake when I was building my car. I bought the bigger bell and it wouldn't clear parts of the car...you are having a diff issue, but might have 130 fly in a larger bell.

    4 speed swap

    Yes it will work. Did it in my car. Can give link to build if you like. Bell housing you are limited if using motor mounts and mechanical clutch.

    Talk me into Fenderwell Headers

    Above is probably the best none opinionated advice. There have been many other comments that Seam fitting as well. If your putting a built BB in the car, your probably not going to tell the difference between the two headers when your driving it. If you need to shave every tenth of a second...

    440 header question

    it would be good to know the year of your car to. some parts work for some years and not others. I can't tell the year your car is but it looks like 71+. we may also need to know if you have motor mount or motor plate. My 1970 duster I had the castle nuts on the center link/tie rods hit...

    if it is motor mounts you need to buy new clutch linkage from brewers performance. you will also need the A833 4 spd. 10'5 inch flyweel/ clutch with 10.5 inch bell housing. get an A body 4spd though. your tranny cross member will work fine. if your engine is in the car with motor...

    So you want 2 go Big block...Read this first!

    Best place would be craigslist. Other than that look on here. You can buy a rebuild from brewers. there is another place you can buy a new one but i don't know the name. some things to consider with this is... If you are using motor mounts or motor plate. if your car has motor...

    I have the same exhaust. I am really happy with it. Best bang for your buck. I hate it when people say that the cheaper kits are crap, and then recomend you get it profesionally done for $1500+ Phil

    I thought it was the drivers side...oops, I'll have to look again. I will also have to look for the other pad. Thanks for your help guys. Sold the demon anyways. It wasn't for sale, but someone else has it that will do some good work to it. Phil

    BB Auto Tranny Question

    I think this is the same pad that is on my car, but not the motor home...bOn my car's 440 it is more to the center drivers side of the front of the engine, above the water pump. Same pad, you are talking about, or different? Phil

    BB Auto Tranny Question

    I took a closer look at the engine today, It does not have the flat area where you would see 440 stamped on it. I was wondering if anyone know how I can tell what the engine is? I know that it will say on the left side of the block, but I can't get under the motorhome right now. here is the...

    You couldn't be more wrong, My 1970 duster 440 4spd has schumacher mounts, and I used mechanical linkage. Motor mounts are not in the way at all. The Tranny Z bar plate is an inch or so back and down with the BB bell, so you need a different plate, and Z bar. Nothing that couldn't be made up...

    Is there a specific reason you are wanting a Hyd clutch? More acurate? My duster is a 440 4spd with underchassi headers. Mechanical clutch linkage bought through brewers. got my BB bell from a member here for about $100 if I remember correctly. Try putting a wanted add out in the parts...

    Was it out of a BIG motorhome? The one I have is Big. Also, How much did you have to alter the drive shaft? Length? I thought that with auto trannies you had to modifie the tranny mount. Guess I was wrong. This could be easier than i thought for the swap. I guess the exhaust...
