Description
I got this from a good friend many years ago, at the time he said it was a runner, although he was not sure how well it ran. I did not really care since it was a 1969 steel crank 440 that did turn over. Unfortunately even though I tried to keep it out of the weather and covered and spun it over fairly frequently, it took on water and will not turn over. I pulled the heads, and the pan, soaked it with various oils for the last several months, but the bottom line is it needs to be rebuilt. I wasted way too much time on trying to free it up, and honestly, it has some ridge, so it is going to need a bore. I put it all back together covered in grease. It does come with the heads, and intake, some rough valve covers. I used the rockers and push rods for something else, if I have others, I will throw them in, the distributor is not a 440, just to plug the hole, does have the pilot hole for the 4 speed. This is a NON HP motor, originally got it as a back up for my charger, I never bothered to check what it came out of, most likely a C body. I was really excited when I got this motor and turned down decent offers at the time, but after spending so much time trying to preserve it and failing, then spending way too much time trying to free it up, I just need to move on. Selling off a 30 year accumulation of car parts, so check my other listings. Opening bid usually wins, so dont be shy. If you have any questions, feel free to ask, selling as is with no returns since it is a 50 year old used motor, this is a LOCAL PICK UP ONLY, sorry got to be clear on that, thank you for looking and have a wonderful day.
