Seems like all the small stuff is keeping me from finishing this stroker. I have a 440 Source crank and a 440 Source harmonic balancer. My problem is that my main pulley to water pump pulley alignment is off about 3/8". Its the stock water pump. The balancer is on all the way (double checked)...

I have done a pretty good job keeping all of my parts together. I would say that I have cleaned up and reused as much as I can. This piece fell out a few months ago when I was dissembling and my "before" pictures are not helping me. Its a bronze bushing and either from the carb linkage or the...

I am getting close to finishing up my '68 300 440. It was a non-HP motor, but I am using HP manifolds. One picture that I did not take well enough when I took everything apart was the routing of the spark plug wires and brackets. I have most of the brackets sorted out, but I am wondering if the...

This is probably common knowledge here, but what is the deal with the PCV cap over the PCV valve. Before I broke down my engine, it only had the metal threaded PCV valve. No cap. It most have been lost before I got the car. I would like to find an OE cap, but I am wondering what the cap is for...

I must have threw out my old fuel pump last year when I tore my engine down. Does anyone know which fuel pump is correct on a '68 440? Was it one style for the HP and another for the standard engine? One of these?

Plugging along on my 440 stroker. The block was zero decked, different lifters, 440 source heads, and the valves were sunk, so a few variables have changed in the valve train since stock. I also would like to keep the stock rocker arms and am using the method in this video to get the rockers to...

I just put my stock oil pan on my 440 Source stroker motor. I used putty to get the pickup at about 1/4" above the pan bottom. No problems. The issue is that the edge of the pickup is right against the oil drain hole. It may make draining the oil a bit slower, but probably ok. It just seems odd...

I am finishing up my 440 stroker build and ready to put the head gaskets on. I am .030 over bore with Cometic 4.350 (.030 over) bore diameter gasket. I have a very slight overhang into the cylinder on the block and into the combustion chamber on the head. Very slight, like maybe .002". I have...

Does anyone have any recent communication with Modern Cylinder Head? I have been trying to reach them for a few weeks now and no response.

'68 300, 440 The rest of the motor is the usual turquoise, but this water pump is red. I am going to put it together as close to stock as I can. This motor would not have had a red WP from the factory, would it?

Thought that I might document my 440 build. Took a different tack to start. 1. Removed the front clip 2. Tore down most of the engine as it sat in the stub frame (this was nice, as I could stand inside the frame and work. It provided a nice heavy base to really put some muscle to some of the...

I have my '68 727 in the shop now for a rebuild. I have a 350hp 440. In the FSM they reference a regular torque converter and a HP version. I assume I have the regular. Does anyone know what the other one is and why I might want it. The FSM does not say much about it.
