Tom

I really like those valve covers. Kinda of a cross between the old Mickey Thompson and Edlebrock Small Block removable top covers, but for a B/RB of course. Are those the 'Jensen' parts you spoke of? What kind of an intake is that, the stock dual plane in alloy?

Yes the covers are the only Jensen bits.

I like em. They look like the M/T's but better!

If I remember right (it has been a long while since i worked on one) they had the word "Jensen" machined into them where 'Nana has a plate pop-rivited on in those photos.

Its getting Milodons put on

Nanna, who did the lump teardown and how much did it cost, I think I will go the same way with my 440 on the 72?

The 440 that came out of here, is getting a full rebuild and stroked to 512 to go in the Plodge (on other thread) and is getting the works.

Sounds kool mate, how much is the rebuild costing I need to get one rebuilt?

Well, we are still waiting for the stroker kits to come, which is different from just rebuilding,although its getting a re-bore soon.

Cool pictures very well done, really intense race action.

What are you saying here though. I don't follow the language.

I dont speak english very well, but yet i can still understand that he is gonna' stroke the engine, and if you buy a completely new stroker kit it aint the same kind of dollar$ we talk about, as just a "rebuild" work, when you already got your crank and rods etc. And only in need of the bearings and the block to be bored etc.... Right Nana?

Now I understand. Thanks for interpreting Jimiboy.

Yep, spot on
The Challenger is getting a new STANDARD 440 with a six pack, and the old engine from it is getting stroked and put into our other project.
