440 Camshaft drive FAIL!!!
So our rebuilt 440 with only 300 miles (at most) on it, developed a problem when stopping at a traffic light, it wouldn't idle. It had lost 20 deg. of ignition timing, so we twisted the distributor, and it ran well again. Then a short time later it did the same thing again, another 20 deg. of timing lost. We couldn't twist the distributor far enough, so had to pull and adjust the drive gear, to get it firing at the right time, but this time it wouldn't run quite right, and lost top end power.
We tried everything a group of us could think of, but in the end pulled off the timing cover, to discover that the single bolt drive with 1 locating pin had suffered a major failure! We hope no valves are bent, but are still determining that, 2 chrome moly pushrods are bent, the timing sprocket is trashed, and we are NOT Amused!!! These were all brand new name brand parts, so why did they fail???
We will be going with a 3 bolt camshaft sprocket retainer this time!
~ 1967 Dodge Coronet Start Up ~ Hughes Whiplash Cam ~ 440 Mopar ~
'67 Dodge Coronet, 440 Big Block Mopar, 518 lift cam. I chose my cam cause I found that Barracuda with the 340 I believe that ran it with great results and I gotta say... Nothing but good news big block wise, this cam has one hell of a sound PLUS it really performs! Will be going racing this weekend so we'll see what kinda 1/4 mile times it'll shoot out.
Thanks Hughes Engines, Manton Pushrods, and 440 Source. The only 3 stickers on my side window!!
1969 440 Roadrunner Flexin Some Mopar Muscle!
Just playing around with a couple gears. The ignition was malfunctioning, not to mention bad shifting. Getting used to the hydraulic clutch and 5 speed. More to come with the new ignition.
Here is a picture of my RR from the Mopar Nationals: http://www.msu.edu/~hagenmi1/1000.jpg

Not real fast by today engines with good heads. But in its day it was fast and still is fun to rev the 327.
Some good gas and 6500 shifts will be fun, when it pops I will Put my 302 next.
