68 383 HP with 906 heads. Picked this up and sold my other 383 because it appeared to be in better condition. Apparently it was in long term storage, a few years maybe, and was going to rebuild. Here goes: What's up with the white-ish valve color, on all of them? Why are the rods a rust color...

Original 383 car, 187 pan, not sure on the pick-up. What does it take to get the oil pan off? Or is it possible to swap out the gasket without completely removing the pan? The bolts above the k-member look near impossible to get. Not pulling the engine anytime soon.

Ticking started a few weeks ago. 383, aluminum heads, Schumacher headers. I changed the collector gaskets recently as one failed before this tick. I used a straight file on both sides and a little copper spray. No leaks at collector or heads, no signs of a leak on either side, no air flow felt...

71 383 HP with a stock 4 barrel intake, complete except no carb, 346 heads. Assumed 8.5:1 compression. Pulled valve covers and exhaust manifolds, looks clean, been sitting inside a friend's heated garage for years. Going in car with headers, dual exhaust, and a 4 speed, crank has correct...

Looking to buy a 383 from a friend, cast in 1970, appears to be a stock 4 barrel, crank drilled for 4 speed with correct early bushing. It s/b 8.5:1 compression. On the pad below the distributor is: G383, assembled in 1971, 383. Next is assembly date, don't recall what it was, I'm dumb and...

I don't see much if anything on-line on the dual quad efi, let alone on a tunnel ram, so I thought I'd put this out there and see what happens. Of course, I can add to it when I learn something new, if there is interest. I also have a question on my spark plugs at the bottom. 383, aluminum...

I pulled my plugs today to get a read on them and educate myself. It seems to give off a stronger than normal exhaust smell, not too bad, always has. New exhaust out the back, new trunk seal, etc. All the plugs have a light coating of oil on them, and I am perplexed. 383, rebuilt about 4 years...

I have a 67 Barracuda with the original 383, Schumacher headers and Accurate Exhaust. The engine mounts are the Poly-Locs from Schumacher, as well as the tranny mount, however you can get these same mounts from any vendor. Magnum Poly-Locs The passenger side mount becomes hot enough to soften...

67 Barracuda, original 383 car. I got a torque strap from Schumacher, but it cannot be used with the BB K frame. The driver side motor mount takes up the space where the strap would mount to the K frame, and I do not see a way to make this strap work. Has anyone put a torque strap on an...

I bought Schumacher's poly motor mounts, and tranny mount, and it appears the passenger side mount is broken. The poly seems crushed a little, not like it used to be. I noticed it because I have a tunnel ram and the carbs were hitting the hood when I opened it recently. These mounts have always...

I just moved, so I don't know anyone in the area that can help me with their brainpower. Any help is greatly appreciated. I have assebled engines before, never a Mopar. Admittedly I am out of my element when it comes to determining what I have and what my options are. Here is what I...

Here goes nothing! I got a 68 383 block that was rebuilt with new bearings, 9:1 pistons, bored .030. I got 452 heads, a tunnel ram, two 600 Holley carbs, Accel distributor, and misc other parts. I still need a bunch of parts, including timing chain, cam, lifters, pushrods, rockers, and an oil...

I got this cam and lifters for free, and it was run in an engine for a while, not sure how long. Is it a boat anchor now, or can it be used?

Would this engine bolt into a factory BB A-Body? It is out of a 71 truck. Is it the same engine as the early 413?

For a Barracuda, a 187, a 893, or something else?

OK, big block 4 speed, runs great, recently put in new gauges including oil pressure. Drove it to Vermont Thursday night, about a 40 minute drive one way. I was about 5 minutes from home and it started to run like crap. It felt like it was not firing a cylinder or two, it was sputtering a little...

Is there a fuel line that levels off from the carb sooner so that it clears the distributor better? Does anyone have pics of their BB fuel lines with a Holley?

I'm looking for the correct plug wire bracket set. eBay has them, but the pics are not accurate, and some list different sets for the same car. I checked Year One and they list 2 kits for the same car: 67 big block A- body models 67 383 A-body models...

The pic below is not my engine, mine does have the bosses on the front and the tab for the motor mount, circled, but it does not have the tab on the right, in the square. Now I know if you want to put a BB in an A body, you need the bosses, and a friend of mine put one in his Dart - but it has...

I have what I believe is a 69 BB radiator. My question is why is there a tag on top of the radiator numbers? It looks like it was punched while on the radiator? The pic on the right is a radiator without the tag.

Does anyone have a good pic of the correct A-Body BB dipstick?
