That engine now runs smoother than the day it left the showroom floor. You did crack me up with your empty power steering reservoir graphic: "He can't hear me."
Thankyou Sal. It's been a nerve racking journey for me as a first timer, but yes she is so smooth! I'm so chuffed!
"He can't hear me" yeah I did laugh during editing I must admit.. 🤣🤣🤣
I think you have one of the better videos out there of rebuilding the engine process. 10 thumbs up
Thankyou Bill for your kind words. I do my best with these videos to help people out. Maybe they'll encourage the next generation to keep these old girls running and to show how easy it is without using a laptop 🤣🤣🤣
Share the vid, spread the word 😁😁 All the best, Julian (SGG) 👍🏻
I got nothing done this weekend because I had to watch every last one of these Mopar rebuild videos. Some bloke in Wales with almost no engineering support, or easy access to parts, just rebuilt a 440 on a whole new level. And then there is the common sense brilliants on a another level; checking the valve stems by using your fingertip to create a vacuum. I am in San Antonio Texas, easy access to a slant six for adjustable rockers, machine shop experts. You just built one rock solid Mopar for a beautiful New Yorker - you have out done the best of us, and I see you redid the break master cylinder too. Texas Respect!
Thankyou Imjin, I appreciate your support 😃👍🏻
The new Master Cylinder replacement is in the "Engine Removal" video 😎🤘🏻

Hope you enjoy the channel 😉
P.S. That's my 1st ever rebuild of an engine! SGG 🤘🏻😎
Your lighting is excellent.
Thankyou Bill, I do my best for the viewers 👍🏻
I believe there was a shroud around the fan to help pull the air through the radiator. This was especially needed with cars produced with Air Conditioning. If you do not restore the AC system, then perhaps it might be OK to leave off the shroud. There is a company that makes a new much smaller AC compressor that along with some other new parts can convert the AC system to the new R134 refrigerant. Yes, the power steering pumps can be quite noisy when there is no hydraulic fluid in the reservoir.
Thanks Joe. Yeah the pump wasn't too happy with no fluid in it LOL! I do have the shroud for the radiator, but on removing the rad I found it was in 2 halves, the top and bottom area is missing and I haven't yet got round to repairing it yet. As I'm in the UK we don't have much use for A/C really 🙄 so not too much of a problem 👍
Hey! Thumbnail looks awesome. Let's see how it went for you.
29:10 - Congrats on the awesome restart! Glad to see that thing purr back to life.
It lives!!! Well done dude, gotta love that tune 🤠
Cheers dude. She runs as sweet as 🤘🏻😎
lookin good . well done
Thanks J G 👍
Congrats on getting closer to that 1k mark, shouldn't be long now. Engine sounds nice, you did a great job on the engine and the power steering pump bracket mod was great - although these type of problems are annoying it is fun to use the noggin to come up with fixes for problems like that.
Awesome, Dude. Congratulations on a triumphal conclusion to an epic first rebuild! Very entertaining video with a few amusing special effects thrown in to ease the suspense. 😄
Sounds amazing. Cracking job. Can’t wait to see her out on the road 👍
Congratulations!
Thankyou Alan 😎👍🏻
The reason you have the entries for the air con. The one at the top is for the heater core to allow coolant from the rad to warm the core and give you heat. The lower ones is for the gas to circulate from being warm to cool. Think of it like a fridge. If you plug the bottom 2 you can still you the heater core for car heating but when you want it to be cold it just be from the fan motor
Gotcha. Basically turning it into a non A/C car 👍🏻
Thankyou for that Daniel 😉
@@SortedGeorgeGarage spot on I got the same set up with a small block 318 so it’s identical
the lower heater hose connector by the fender is the hot water valve you can see it from under the dash. the heater hose goes to that first and then to the the other connectors (heater core) then back to the motor
Ahh!!!! Thankyou! That's right, it's something to do with the A/C, I remember watching something recently but didnt quite understand it. The penny has dropped now! Cheers for that Shop, I was going the wrong way round!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Sounds great! Nice work, very entertaining as usual. This one might have to be a keeper.
Nice job George! I'll be overhauling my 383 in my 1966 Dodge Polara this winter,greatly appreciate all the information on you're rebuild.
Thankyou Bob! Glad these videos help Sir 👍🏻
nice job!
Cheers 123, it took a while but we got there 👍🏻
that vacuum canister is for the power trunk release. look for the trunk release button in the glovebox on top
Yeah it had a tiny rust hole in the bottom of the canister. I repaired that, and there's a button in the glovebox and an actuator next to the trunk latch mechanism 😎👍🏻
Im getting ready to rebuild my 440.
The tubes with threads are the evaporator. The other one is the heater core.
the pre-fuselage C bodies are one of my favorite Chryslers...great style and awesome road cars...great that you got a good one. are you able to customize your UK license plates, like with the make and model? I've seen that on other British registered cars. in the US where we can have classic plates, they tend to be either a generic classic plate or a plate from the year of the car manufacture...def not customizable.
Although they're not technically "legal", the cops tend to let them slide as the licence plates are easily readable.
I must admit I do like these cars myself. I'm gonna have a hard time letting this one go when she sells. Very lucky that everything is there and nothing is missing. I've just found the build sheet behind the front passenger door card (never known them to be placed there) 👍🏻
Congratulations on your rebuild. Did you reuse the original cam? I didn’t see you do a cam break in procedure on start up. Thanks.
Hi Dave, thankyou Sir 👍🏻 I used another cam and lifters (as mentioned in my rebuild video) that had already been broken in as my original cam was worn through. By using the other used cam and lifters this saved me running a cam in for 20 minutes at about 2500rpm 😎👍🏻
@@SortedGeorgeGarage awesome! I must have missed that detail in the previous video. Congrats again!
Thankyou my friend. Was nerve wracking but thoroughly enjoyed it 🤠👍🏻
Oh I see you have 2 heater hose Y. I think the higher on is the outlet so it will bleed the air out.
Nice job George really enjoying videos I have a 1967 new yorker, had for 12months now been driving it to lots of car meets
Who do you use for your parts could do with doing a service this winter and brakes
Thanks Kevin. Glad you're enjoying the videos. I hope they help out. I mainly use Rock Auto, but I try not to get their cheap parts... it's poor chinesium rubbish!! Same as "Standard T Series".... very poor quality!
All the best... SGG
Thanks George will take a look
Hard to tell from Virginia but it sounds like it's running too fast
It was running a bit fast deliberately as it was it's first start. I wanted everything to seat in first before I started to adjust timing / idle etc. 👍🏻
RPM up for cam break in
