The 1970 440 engine was completely disassembled and inspected. Black was hot tanked and sent out for machining. It was bored .030 over and line honed. Deck height was checked- block was surfaced. Steel Crank was turned .010/.010 and polished. Rods were resized and ARP rod bolts installed. The rotating assembly was balanced. We opted for the Edelbrock top end kit with the aluminum cylinder heads, aluminum intake, etc (#2087 Power Package). Sealed Power forged pistons were used (L2355F 30). ARP polished stainless big block bolt kit was used- Grade 8 of course. Custom Smith Bros push rods. 1.6 ratio aluminum roller rockers from 440 Source. Mopar Performance valve covers polished- with custom paint. Block was painted red to match exterior car color. Every engine component detailed completely. All engine specs recorded during engine build.
