Looking for pictures of correct restored 1971 440 six-pack engine.

Looking for correct stampings, markings, tags, so on and so forth.

Can I reference a 440 six pack engine from a different year such as '69?

Check with Alan Gallant, handle on board 'anlauto'. I believe he retored a 71 sassy grass 440-6 cuda.

I've restored several 71 440+6's but I'm not going to stand on a soapbox and claim everything is 100% dead nuts correct.

This is MY interpretation of what I believe to be correct after years of research.

Damn! That's beautiful Alan! If only I could buy one of those at Wal-mart

You da man, Alan!!

Nice work Alan. The carbs look nice as well, allot of good detailing but there are a couple plating related things I'd have done differently on them.

Thanks Scott..
That engine was done three years ago. I've learned more since then, as we all have.
Those are the original carbs restored by Gerry Luck.

One thing that I will say, is that all I did was bolt them on and have driven the crap out of the car with not one single carb issue. They run great.

My next carb(s) are coming your way.

BEFORE picture:

that pcv valve looks like the 3 rib 1970 version, was the 71 pcv valve smooth?

I've got as couple of shots of my '70 440+6 that Frank Badalson did.I'm not sure how to resize the pictures to fit,but if someone wanted to,let me know and I will forward them to you.

Alan, that is one BEAUTIFUL engine!

Were those pictures resized and made smaller? If you have larger pictures, I sure would appreciate it if you could PM them to me!

Thnaks everyone. Keep 'em comin'!

here are the pics 44D6PAKCUDA took of a Baldalson engine.

Thanks where Frank left his socks....

Frank's work is where I copied most of mine from Work of art !

Are those exhaust manifolds yellow or an odd shade of rust?

The exhaust manifolds were originally bolted on the engine assembly when painted,(reference Alan's engine pictures)so at one time they were the same color as the engine.After being driven for awhile the heat would eventually burn off most the orange paint.When I took these pictures of my engine it had only been run a few hours on the dyno.They still do have some orange paint on them just not as much now.

Alan,

Looks like the Drivers valve cover is a 70, is this an early production?
