    400 with a 440 transmission mix-n-match issue?

    When I bought this car at a local auction whoever had this car last was trying to do some sort of disc brake conversion, but it was a mess and lots of parts were either missing or didn't make sense. I think they were trying to adapt a bowtie set up, but there was half a SSBC kit with it. I was...

    400 with a 440 transmission mix-n-match issue?

    The axle bearings are all new. Had new ones installed along with eliminating the right hand thread lugs back when I put the 2.94 rear in. I had this done with the axles out of the car at a reputable shop, but didn't have the axles checked for any subtle bending. Looking in several resources...

    400 with a 440 transmission mix-n-match issue?

    Follow up for those playing along at home; Not a complete fix, but found an issue anyway. The rear drums weren't even for this car. Someone well before me installed a set of 11"x2" drums, shoes, backing plates, etc... And they must have had a difficult time getting those drums replaced for they...

    400 with a 440 transmission mix-n-match issue?

    Found something else that I've never seen before; The right rear drum was out of round. I wish I had video'd it. Clear visible and probably 1/4 or more warped. I ran the car with the drum off and the axle was spinning true, so I ordered up a new drum. I bought this car from my an auction and...

    400 with a 440 transmission mix-n-match issue?

    It's the original to the car (or at least it was in the car when I got it) and I had a local machine shop install new U-joints. I found no obvious damage or bends while it was out, but that doesn't mean it couldn't have gotten slightly bent. I'm going to plan on having an actual driveline shop...

    400 with a 440 transmission mix-n-match issue?

    I can now rule out the engine/transmission as part of the issue. It is definately speed related. Though I took the one bent rim out of the equation, I still have a vibration at 65mph or higher. It doesn't come through the steering, it's the whole car (I feel it in the floor boards, my seat, see...

    400 with a 440 transmission mix-n-match issue?

    Mid-week follow up. Thanks to all for the tips and info. Warmed up the engine and revved it up to 3000 rpm(ish) both in Neutral and with it up on jack stands. No vibrations in Neutral. While in Drive at idle I thought to make sure the rear tires were true (not bent). And low what did I see? One...

    400 with a 440 transmission mix-n-match issue?

    Of course, because I can be a cheap b#$tard, I have the original converter from the '66 Fury (it originally was a 383/auto car). Will it work? Or should I just pony up :eek: and buy new?

    That's where I thought this would go. My own fault for being cheap and trying to use parts laying around. Thank you Big_John

    1972 400CI motor

    Hey Big John or anyone else familiar with 400's... From what I can find the #3614230 was '71-72 only engine with a forged crank. This would then have a #3614371 harmonic balancer. Vs. #3698630 for '73-78 cast crank engines that use balancer #3614374. Could someone check my homework here before...

    WANTED '66 Fury dash Ashtray

    Looking for the ashtray for my '66 Fury VIP. As you can see by the attached picture I have the insert it attaches to. Does not matter if it isn't black, this car is going to be a daily driver and never a show car (I can rattle can it to match if needed). Thanks in advance.
