SOLD OUT!

You can win this engine, no purchase necessary. All you have to do is attend the Chrysler’s at Carsile event this July 09. The engine will be given away on Sunday afternoon and you must be present to win. For exact details check out the web site http://www.carlisleevents.com/ce/events/chrysler-nationals/ .

Last year we built a 505” 440 that made just over 600 HP and 660 ft/lbs of torque. For this years project we decide to do a low deck engine and tone down the power output a little do make a more docile yet still VERY strong combination. The exact output of the engine is being withheld as there maybe some sort of giveaway to who can guess how much power it made. Don’t quote me on that because details have not been finalized.

The engine: We based this year’s giveaway on a 383. We chose our Muscle Motors brand stroker kit featuring a 4.25 stroke. H-beam rods, Diamond pistons and Clevite bearings and Federal Mogul rings complete this balanced rotating assembly. Milodon supplied the ultra low profile oil pan, windage tray, HV oil pump, bronze distributor drive, and Stainless Steel valves for the heads. Comp Cams supplied the timing chain, hydraulic roller cam & lifters, valve springs, locks, retainers, seals, pushrods and 8620 Chromemoly steel rocker arms. The heads we decided to keep the “sleeper look” by using a set of Muscle Motors CNC ported 906 cylinder heads. The idea behind CNC porting a set of 906’s is maximum flow yet maintaining a OEM appearance. There are more cost effective ways to get a set of good flowing heads. The Edelbrock Performer RPM would be more cost effective but again our goal was to maintain a “sleeper” appearance. The heads are topped off with a Edelbrock Performer RPM intake and a Quick Fuel 830 cfm Super Street carb.

This 489 cubic inch 383 with 906 heads and a hydraulic roller cammed engine has a 1960’s appearance with 2000’s technology. No one will know your “383” has a Stroker rotating assembly, hydraulic roller cam, and CNC ported, unleaded compatible heads. This engine will be right at home in any Mopar engine bay. Make sure you attend the 2009 Chrysler’s at Carsile for your chance to win this engine FOR FREE!!!!!

NEW: 496" stroker kit for Mopar 383 block!

Do you have a 383 block and don't know what to do with it? We here at Muscle Motors have the answer. For years people have shyed away from 383 blocks because of their limited bore size. The devloping problem is that for every year that goes by, good core 440 and 400 blocks are getting harder to find. This has led to the devlopment of the 496/383 kit.  This kit features a 4340 steel, 4.250 stroke crank with 2.200 rod journals. 6.535 long 4340 steel H-beam rods and dished pistons for pump gas compression. The kit comes complete with chamfered Michigan 77 bearings and Childs and Albert piston rings. All rods are checked for size and concentricity and bearing journals are checked for size. The kit is internally balanced and ready to insall when you recieve it.

New Milodon Oil Pans!

Milodon has released three new oil pans for Mopars. For Small blocks there is the new low profile pan. It is a 7 qt systen and is 7 3/4" deep versus the tradional Milodon pan that is 8 3/4" deep. The 318/340 pan is #30936. The 360 # is 30941

For big blocks the is the new 30931 pan. This is a new version of the tradional 30930 pan except it has a right angle edge on the drivers side and a hole for an external static oil pick up.

The third new pan is the 31151. This a a traditional dragster or box style oil pan except it is notched in the front to clear an aftermarket style crossmember. These pans are designed for dual line swinging oil systems and will NOT work with standard center link steering. The 31151 is designed for use with front mounted rack and pinion steering only

Come to the Indy Trade Show at the Indiana State Fairgrounds March 4th & 5th. We will have various Show specials and we will be debuting our latest Rotating kit. A 496" stroker for a 383 Mopar block. Also come by and pick up the latest in Muscle Motors T-shirts and sweatshirts.

Over the past 20 years we have acquired over 35 sets of canceled, mis-ordered or incorrect custom forged pistons. Rather than list them I have made a spread sheet of these pistons with bore size, wrist pin, ring package and head configuration. I have piston for small and big block as well as Hemi. All sets are $250 a set, first come first serve.

Muscle Motors is proud to introduce our latest product for the Mopar racer. If you have ever tried to transport an expensive race crankshaft you know difficult it can be. Good crank boxes will only last so long and are hard to come by. To resolve this problem we now have injected molded plastic crank boxes. They come with rubber inserts for the main journal to prevent damage in transport. They also have metal inserts that accept a 3/8 cap screw so you can securely attach the top and bottom pieces. These boxes will work with big and small block crankshafts and we have sent cranks back and forth across the country a number of times in the same box with ZERO issues. Our introductory sale price is $49.95. Boxes are in stock and we will also have them at the Indy trade show March 7th & 8th. If you have any questions please call us @ 888 482 4900. 

 

If you purchase one of our stroker kits you can purchase a crank box for shipping for an additional $40 dollars!!
