I have been checking my parts bin for the 440 I am rebuilding here and I have come up short on some part, here is a photo of what I am looking for. It is a distributor drive as well as 13 sump pan bolts and thee pushrods for an RB, note that the pushrods have a step in the thickness of it at one end. I also am short one rocker arm that turns to the left as you can see in the pic.
Oh and also, I found one broken main cap bolt as well in one of the main bearing caps, I will need one of those too.

Can anyone help with these bits? Also need the accelerator bracket that will fit a 68 440. Cheers.
 
I'll have a look at my stash. 6 months ago I had all of it but I bartered away a truckload of engine parts to my engine builder for the labor to rebuild the 383 from my vert.
You know those pushrods are obsolete with any sort of replacement lifter, so I've been told. I do have a bunch of those in a bucket of scrap metal....
I may have the linkage and the bolts if anything.
 
That is correct about the push rods.

I'll look through my pile of junk later today.
 
I have the pan bolts and the linkage brackets in the pics, none of which are a match for yours but if you see something you can substitute let me know.

Yeah none of those will work, they are later model units, the one with the pivot appears to be small block too. I have another guy who is sending pics tonight of his bracket, will let you know how i go. If anyone has a full set of later normal style pushrods I will be interested.
 
Let me know if you need the pan bolts.
 
I have an oil pump drive for you. I may have more.... Migraine headache today is making it tough to look through my box-o-junk.
 
I just thought of something, I will have a look at my spare 68 383 I have to see if it has the right accelerator bracket, if so I will cannibalize that. Also, the pan plates and sump pan bolts are organized, Big John has the distributor drive. So I am still looking for a full set of pushrods for a 440 and one left leaning rocker as per picture.
 
Got my end plates and pan bolts now, the distributor drive is organised too, so now all I need is a set of 440 pushrods plus one rocker arm. Anyone got this stuff laying about?
