    well I will get some more pictures and tear the block down the rest of the way and get it cleaned to to a shop to be looked over. I was told $450 a head to go 1.74 and hardened seats. The aluminum heads look nice but thats at least double. I'll see I guess

    I pulled the 383 out of my 66 windsor

    there is a ridge, more on the low side and top than the sides so all of the above. some pins are tight too. the oil rings are sticking though. the timing chain was super sloppy. I'm glad I parked it

    I pulled the 383 out of my 66 windsor

    The rod caps have a fly cut grove in them and the bearings have holes notched in them I guess to spray oil on the piston pins? none of the bearings I see online have that notch

    I pulled the 383 out of my 66 windsor

    I pullled the cam and pistons tonight. some rod bearing look like they were up to something. Some pistons look good, some maybe not. Not sure if that can be salvaged or not.

    I could buy this for $8000 and pull the rebuilt 440 out of it and put it in my car. It might be cheaper

    the thing is if the shop buys it I pay double. I might as well tow the car away for scrap because I cant afford to rebuild a simple engine. nobody stocks anything in Canada and if they do, its 3 times what rock auto or somewheres half decent in the states would charge. Pistons Are about $800CAD...

    1966 383 516 heads what pistons?

    ok thanks. I just want to try to get the things he needs myself and save some money. I'll probably just get stock seals but the springs I would like to source myself. It sure isnt easy these days, every parts place in town does not sell internal engine parts, which just gives me shell shock and ptsd

    1966 383 516 heads what pistons?

    Looks like 1.74 valves and seats redo the heads is about $450CAD per head. What springs should I get for them? something that will handle up to .525 lift or so? Is it worth it to cut the heads for positive seals?

    Is this normal cam wear?

    I will use good oil I was using 15w diesel oil. but I keep hearing "after the cam breaks in you can run any oil you want" I'm not gonna test that. I realize its worn I was just curious about sabotage but if they all bag out like that, and I've had oil pressure drop on hard acceleration that is...

    1966 383 516 heads what pistons?

    I'm not gonna go forged because Id have to add weight to the crank to balance it. My cylinders are worn more on the top and bottom so I guess it will need to be bored out. I was hoping for a quick dingle hone and rings but its not looking like that will be enough with egg shaped holes. I was...
