    67' 300 side pipes, yay or nay

    Another nay from me. There´s no excuse to clutter up a C-body with side pipes there.

    Thinking about the valve train

    This case is closed. The engine did not have enough oil, so ensuring the oil level was the solution for this problem.:BangHead:

    Thinking about the valve train

    Not at all. The coil and manifold have inches of empty space between them, though it is not visible on that photo. @Big_John Yes, we are on the same page, though I explained it as lash instead of as slack. @CBODY67 The cam, valves etc. are stock for a 67 440 (T code, I assume), which has...

    Thinking about the valve train

    On the right side the rocker arms are able to move about .02`` along the longitudinal axis of the rocker shaft. This is heard only every now and then and the noise is caused only when the valve springs are slightly compressed. It stops by revving the engine. The FSM does not tell anything about...

    A noisy steering pump

    I feel myself a bit dumb now. After rechecking the PS fluid and adding some the continuous wheezing stopped.:BangHead: There is still something improper to it. The pump makes a hissing sound every now and then. Could that be a symptom of air in the system?

    A noisy steering pump

    The power steering pump makes a wheezing noise that starts after turning the steering wheel any bit to either direction. The noise is constant, so it makes no difference if the wheel is turned more off of the center position nor how far from the center it is. The pump itself is misaligned in...

    Edelbrock CH4B, Weiand Action+, Edelbrock Performer ... for RB Big Block - input sought

    @tallhair I really suggest that you won´t buy a manual choke. It´s a PITA when the weather is chilly and you try to warm up a cold engine.

    Engine conversion help!

    M-bodies offered it; Chrysler LeBaron, Dodge Diplomat... R-bodies(79-81 ``big`` Mopars); Plymouth Gran Fury, Dodge ST.Regis, Chrysler Newport and New Yorker. I think that at least 81 Dodge Mirada was available with it, so J-bodies. @Yeahrightgreer 1971 Chrysler Newport Royal had a 360 as...

    505 Build

    With my mathematically underpowered brain, I get over 511 out of that, because a 440 with bore .030 over stock is a 446.

    What will the compression ratio be? Something like 10.x:1 or even higher?
