Yead no kidding! Does it have a viscous fan? I have seen both types of fans on these engines... 
I didn't think there was enough room for one ?

The 383 cars have a stock style fan with a .70 spacer.
The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

But a 440 is the same length front to back , as is the waterpump and housing and they use the same radiator.
Did the 440 have a clutch fan ?

The driver's side valve cover does not look like it's correct for an HP motor? Which motors came with the chrome valve covers?
It's correct, the difference has nothing to do with a HP engine, it's the body style in combination with the manifold style. The #7 plug wire on a BB a-body routes around the back - just like a c-body.

Yes , I always get a chuckle out of HP vs. non HP valve covers , all depends on what car platform the engine is installed in .

Why doesn't someone combine the M-code Cuda and M-code Dart into one 1969 A13 Registry something like the '69 A12 Registry......just a thought. Seems like there's a fair amount of interest for both models.

Not trying to make more work for anyone but they do seem to share the same options like the A12 road runners and Super Bees that are one Registry
