    Sure Grip Project

    I recently acquired this 2.76 differential with the intention of swapping it out for the open unit in my NY. This weekend I built a holding jig and started to clean it up a little. I was hoping to just clean and paint, as it seems pretty solid and the backlash is tight. Also planning on...

    440 Rebuild & Upgrade

    I'm going to reserve some space here for the rebuild thread because the time is approaching. I was driving back from Christmas last week, cruising down the freeway at about 60, and all of a sudden the engine just cut out. After pulling over, cranking the engine revealed a different sound...

    440 Intake Project

    No matter how much I tuned it, it just wouldn't run right. It ran OK, got about 12mpg, had good power on the highway, but ran sluggish around town. Plugs always fouling with oil after a few 100 miles. Compression was perfect - each cyl. at 150 psi dead on. Replaced stem seals, but still oil. So...

Obviously there's a problem with the pickup design or lack of baffles in the pan. I've never experienced this with another vehicle. When the light comes on, I shift into neutral...

    440 Tune-up specs

    As I yet don't have a shop manual, and the sticker in the engine compartment is well worn and illegible, was wondering if anybody had tune-up specs for a standard 440 handy? 73 NY'er. I've got a rough idle - rebuilt the TQ carb, replaced the plugs, and now runs better. Next it's onto the...

    Carter Themoquad specs

    I am rebuilding the Themoquad carb on my '73 440 and the rebuild kit I got at Napa did not come with instructions or specs. Looking for specs mainly for float setting and other key things before I put this back together. I do not have a factory shop manual yet. If anybody has any specs handy or...
