    Did 440 4bbl 375 horse motors get 6 pack rods?

    I've rebuilt a few HP 440s in my time, and only one, a 1972 Polara CHP 440 4 bbl had 6bbl rods. I watched an old YouTube vid today from Nick's garage and he said that "most" '70 375 horsepower E body 4bbl 440s get 6bbl rods. What is your experience with B or E body factory 440's? Did 70 or 71...

    Indy "Big Go" drag race today

    2 of my favorite drivers won today, Ron Caps and Antron Brown. Ron is going into the countdown in first place On a separate note, if anyone is in Long Beach CA, the Lyons drag racing museum is really good, much better than the NHRA museum in Pomona.

I thought that paying extra ($133 vs $50) for a USA made pickup/sender would be the best option, it had a 5 year warranty and came with a new seal and lock ring. I installed the sway bar while the tank was...

    Hi all, I would like to know what MoPar you would go back in time to order? of course we would all order an E body HEMI 4 speed 'vert and pickle it, so I will assume that is #1 as an investment.

    Hi all, I have to install a new A/C controller that the buttons actuate. Does the dash need to be rotated down? Can the dash be removed without removing the windshield? I've done everything else on my cars, but never dropped a dash. I will also need a new heater core. I assume the heat-A/C box...
