1969 DODGE CHARGER 440 BUILD!

[@charger19691]

The 68, 69 and 70 Charger is my favorite car of all time. Just beautiful automobiles from every angle! I grew up watching The Dukes of Hazzard like millions of other kids and the Dodge Charger became my favorite car. Thank you for saving this great car!

[@johntatum1951]

Hello Dylan, I am a Sleeperdude fan, came over after you got the Dodge Dart. I have a 1997 Dodge Intrepid in good working order, so I am a Mopar fan. Your 440 engine is lookin good!

[@0_O_0001]

I have a 16 hour shift in less than 8 hours and I just got off work from an 8 hour shift. I need to sleep, but I won't miss these videos for anything. I'll sleep when I'm dead.

[@ThePolaroid669]

Where are you? 1850? Who does 16 hour shifts? Someone should talk to your company about fatigue management.

John Grieve I agreed to work them, I don't mind. Sure it's a huge safety risk since I'm a hospital security guard, but I don't mind 64-80 hour work weeks.

You are awesome!

It's been 20 years since I built the 440 in my 68 Charger, still my daily driver.. ...this brings back some very fond memories ! Thanks Dylan !

[@georgemcmillan9172]

I've always been a Mopar guy. Whenever I've redone a motor, I always use the turquois color. To me, it looks better under the hood rather than orange or any other color. It doesn't hurt that blue is my favorite color anyway? The 440 is looking really good Dylan! Looking forward to seeing it finished and in the Charger!

[@ramirodiaz4545]

Good thing the drain pan was there to catch the coolant spill.

[@MattExzy]

The block's 'aim' went wanting on that one lol

[@sdowney717]

The engine looked great inside, clean, and not much to worry about.

[@jmuduke99]

Wish I knew how to do this stuff. Much respect.

[@MrDurandal25]

Great work sir! Torn down my 440 to the block and had it machined......a few issues were found and corrected. Total joy getting all the parts and getting her back in and running. Nothing better.

[@CoastalAutoReactionCAR]

Just sat through a 5 min skippable ad about purple pillows that is how much I like your videos! I’d like to see the Roadkill guys come by your place! Who’s with me? Maybe a RK episode where there do a car at your place and road trip it?

[@DylanMcCoolVideo]

You are awesome! I'd welcome the Roadkill guys for sure.

[@ekoyanda4280]

Can you order a V8 engine to Aceh Indonesia

[@20alphabet]

440's a great motor when done properly.

[@20alphabet]

Better at some things, like the 8th mile.

[@VegasRT500]

[@1963felonee]

@@g_unit6773 I saw one reason is to raise awareness for sexual abuse of minors, I know some people do it because of the loss of a loved one, I don't know his reasoning but he probably has a good one, even if it was just that he bashed his thumb and his thumbnail got all screwed up looking

[@stoveboltlvr3798]

Man, Christmas in July. I think you'll like that .488 lift cam, I use STP oil treatment as assembly lube, it's pretty sticky. Engine looks good!

[@MrLance68]

Its amazing what is available in America parts wise. So much variety and not a huge cost. Getting stuff like this in Australia for a dodge is expensive but so worth it. I have been importing parts as it works out cheaper and better quality.

[@texasstar2930]

Had a old cuda back in high school we bought it in Tucson Arizona an took it home to chandler...318 was ok but we got are hands on a 440 ..man first time I put it on the track just about peeeeeed myself so much power...I loved that car

[@qmopar]

Love opening go-fast parts...thanks for sharing! Can't wait to see this thing running. It'll be great!

[@randyrhodes7526]

Watch your oil pressure close with that windage tray, I had issues in both of my big block builds with the tray holding oil on top and not allowing the oil return back to the pan fast, I ended up putting a few rows of holes in the center of the tray and that fixed my oiling issues and did not appear to rob any of the performance gains, you may not have the issue with the bigger pan, as always enjoy your work !

[@randyrhodes7526]

Steve 1961P. I agree the tray is designed to keep oil below it and away from the crankshaft but as I say the oil pressure issue did happen on 2 B.B. builds I had lots of oil pressure dropping to zero issues on deceleration with windage trays for whatever the reason was, the trays looked just like Dylan's I would take them out and the issue would go away, I found later that I could drill a few rows of 1/4 inch inch holes the center of the tray and the issue would go away , just putting out things that happen to me on 2 big block builds, I know the tray is open at each end and on deceleration and breaking oil should not stay on top of the tray but for whatever the reason was it happened and the holes would stop the issue, this was 30 years ago, I was running HV Melling pumps, Just sharing things from my mopar days.

[@nobamagone1063]

Randy Rhodes m

[@zakpeterson6713]

Yea those windage trays block off way way to much to the pan. They cause the crank to constantly whip the oil around with not enough drain back. Modern windage trays are more of an oil scraper with either loovers or screens so the oil can be swept off the crank and into the pan. It would be worth customizing that windage tray with slots and holes.

[@marshalllhiepler]

Any windage tray that "retains" oil in the crank area, and prevents it from returning to the sump ... is an autrocity to internal combustion engines. Talk about an engineering fail. The result is the opposite of the objective. It literally accumulates oil in the rotating components, increases windage, and reduces power. (Not to mention the spun rod bearings.) Let me guess, it was designed by the engineering department of the Special Olympics Coalition? 😃

[@crazyman8683]

1969 charger with a 440 is my dream car

[@robbiefrentz9427]

Hey quick note. Find the hook to hold your spare tire. That screws into your cam. And gives you a cheap instillation tool👍👍👍

[@andyfern6671]

I have zero chance of ever having a 69 Charger, so will just live out a parallel life through your awesome videos, if that's okay! Your enthusiasm is infectious....all the best, Andy

[@Clodaak]

same here brotha

[@terrysilmon7452]

It's possible for you to have a classic charger look up Maple Motors

[@dylansgameplay5183]

Nothings impossible

[@vanpenguin22]

Fresh bright brass freeze plugs against fresh engine paint. That really pops.

[@MikeyMack303]

Great progress on the 440! Looking forward to seeing the continued progress!

[@vargohoat9950]

that teal color on the block is also the factory color on my 318. good stuff man, the chargers gonna be badass. if i was you i might look into putting a fuel injection system on that motor, the extra mileage would pay for itself after a while

[@moparre]

What year 318 ive never seen a 318 in this color always red orange/red blue

[@joealbert7773]

The RTV sealant and the double row timing chain point to the fact that someone has been into this engine before. That's not a bad thing, but it has been apart at least partially.

[@moparre]

All motorhome engines have double roller chains

[@overheating8954]

I LOVE the turquoise! That 440 is coming along nicely. I like the route you decided to take for this build.

[@CoastalAutoReactionCAR]

I have that oil pump in my 68 383 FYI it will EMPTY THE PAN under hard throttle so keep it on the full side also don’t be shocked at 70lbs at idle. Also have that water pump check the fin clearance before you fire it other than that works mint. Cold case looks like they have a really good product looking at going with them on my 66 charger look forward to seeing how it works for you!

[@DylanMcCoolVideo]

Thanks for the heads up! Hopefully the 6 quart pan and baffles will help out. I definitely recommend Cold Case!

[@BustedClassicGarage]

Boxes upon boxes of happiness!

[@maverick3421]

Such big effort...This channel is underrated! And thanks a lot Dylan I really learn a lot about car mechanics from your videos!

[@willjoo5976]

Christmas in july.. Good job brother.likin u more and more every day. Your public testimony speeks volumes..

[@Wrenchlife604]

Digging the color choise on the engine.

[@sirroadkillgtx8833]

That 440 will look like a big beautiful piece of turquoise candy in the sunlight. Can't wait for your install and break in.

[@KASCH570]

I'm not sure if this matters or not on a 440. I had a high volume oil pump on my 327 (from previous owner) and after we dis-assembled the motor we found that all the main bearings for the crank were completely shot, engine had roughly 20k miles since it was last rebuilt. I learned that in my case the high volume oil pump was pumping oil so fast to the upper end of the engine that it ended up starving the main bearings of oil. After doing a complete rebuild, blue print and balanced we went back to a good normal volume pump and all is well. My driving oil pressure is about 50 psi, cold start about 70 psi, low idle around 30 psi.

[@Tzor17]

nice to see the mopar still alive and doing well, thanks for the vid.

[@FernandoPartridge]

440 Charger, The Sword blasting from the speakers, sun going down.........I can dream.

[@paulmacallister1989]

The torquoise looks damn good! Out of factory, chrysler would put a small paint mark with a paint on every component, when it passed inspection, you should try to replicate that!

[@encryptorEJ]

I love Summit Racing Equipment. I was surprised I live close to one in Tallmadge, OH.

[@marksadler4457]

My first and only build in upstate NY 440, 69 Charger RT with Automatic - Sad not have that car now. My students would love it.

Watching this engine build brings me back! Thanks for the memories! Great job by the way!

[@mikepoint4983]

Good job You guys , Repo is such a nice dog . Your car is coming together nicely and a great choice of parts . Keep up the great work .

[@adamtrombino106]

Factory HD, HO, and Marine engines had windage trays as well as dual roller timing gear sets. They also had the HD shot peaned rods, hd bearings, and high volume oil pumps. Side note, I really hope you degreed that cam and didn't just set it straight up.. Looking forward to the next vid!

[@johnogo7886]

I need parts like that for my 70 Roadrunner including windage tray and a new oil pan for a 383 HP!

I love the engine color! It is funny how you can't tell until it is on the engine. Too bad you don't have a camera crew though. (I am a chronic complainer however) I just chomp at the bit for every video you make. Thanks

[@angelonicassio7131]

I love that he is planning to put the 383 back in... Im curious now about output differences with all the same bolt-ons... hope he does that video some day:)

[@jimh309]

NICE! I'd like to see the 440 stick with it! Just cause...

[@LMacNeill]

Definitely like that color -- excellent!

[@eddie6620]

This really helps, im planning on rebuilding a 302, but honestly i had know idea where to begin, on the account that im only 17, my dad has experience on rebuilding small block chevys but he said i should do my first engine by myself

[@gamedoutgamer]

Love the turquoise paint job!! Looks so very 60's. Great job.

[@areshetov80]

Thank you for your channel. That's very interesting. I am from Russia and we have almost no American old cars.

[@TheBear351c]

Great build series. Greetings from Australia. Love seeing old cars resurrected, and built in the garage. Keep 'em coming.

[@StraightP1ff]

Cant wait to see the charger painted and running

[@huitz1348]

The old charger is my favorite muscle. I was hoping you will restore it's paint and interior as well. Can't find a detailed video of anybody restoring such as yours.

[@frankielemus4477]

Please post more of your project. Very nice

[@scottt8424]

hey man it looks nice it's going to look even nicer when it's done good luck there I like the video

[@luminox1]

Man when i saw this video lasted 20min i was a happy camper

[@luminox1]

i Got a 7quart pan from summit with my 454. With their oil pickup tube. The thing is great for the price. Nothing bad to say about it so far!

[@firstgenerationgarage2803]

Great video my friend nice to show people what it takes to make your engine look nice very important step towards having a great looking engine bay keep up the great work can't wait to see it all done

[@clayprall8706]

just got a 77 dodge power wagon with the 440 and couldn’t find any other vids on it thanks!

Really missed your show

[@Bagooda]

Nice vid again Dylan! I like the blue.

[@calvinh.8882]

Looking good.. So glad to see you uploaded a new video.. And loved the Cold Case products, and all the other new parts! Now i can't wait to see this thing running.. I redone a 1968 Ford F-100 custom cab, short bed, and i did the engine in the Ford blue, and i replaced every bolt that could be seen, with gloss black bolts.. It looked really good.. I hope you had a great weekend, and that you have an even better week, can't wait to see your next upload.. Peace!

[@bcam2544]

Repo makes every video better

[@jamesoneill2343]

Really cool project motor. I have a 75 Century V drive ski boat with a 440. I was told it wasn’t winterized correctly and it has a slight crack in block. Have you ever repaired a block or know someone who had good progress with repairing one? TIA👍🏻

[@lostonessoul8435]

Oooh...baby....my gramps, a junkyard owner, found this old charger and said AND. I. QUOTE. "You look like you need a ride...tell ya what. You fix this car it's yours." And thus I came here.

well now i'm jealous.

Good work! Congrats from France !!!!!!!

[@Nevercouldfigureitout]

I see the woman’s presentation in the cold case booth got you too lol. I saw your car a couple of days on the tour but never saw you around it. I’d even parked right by it in bowling green. I had a blackberry pearl 12 Challenger with anthracite torque thrust m’s. Btw they do seem to be nice products but I couldn’t see the prices for that top the woman was wearing. It sure made the heat a bit more bearable lol.

[@davidbrantley2464]

THE VIDEO I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR!

[@JosephSamsor]

Does anyone know of a good guide on how to do certain engine mods like a camshaft? I’ve looked around but they only show how to install it, not any supporting mods that may be necessary or how to tune the car after if it’s necessary.

[@SophiaAphrodite]

Places like Summit sell complete kits that include matched cam/intake last I knew. They also show the HP specs for that application. There is no need to overthink it unless you intend to race it. Many cam companies will have a sheet that will tell you how many degrees your cam will be off standard. Degreeing your cam is not necessary really. I have never had to for any cam I installed.

[@jordanwiley4582]

Supporting mods can be as much or as little as you want. Cam itself (have to have new lifters if a flat tappet). or cam, springs, valve job, vale stem seals, headers, cylinder heads, etc.

[@blah9664]

Good stuff man. I have that 488/491 cam in my 340. It's a good cam with a nice lope, you'll like it. I have those Mildon freeze plugs and that mopar performance high volume pump on my list as well for my 383 build. I'm going to try the lunati voodoo 703 494/513 cam for my 383 build. I got my engine and dash wire harness as well as heater hoses for my 66 at Chrysler nats in Carlisle Pa over the weekend. It was a little cheaper plus saved on shipping. Keep up the good work.

[@livetorace163]

I hear the voodoo line is the best that lunati has ever put out! They brought in an expert to design it that was well known in the industry and custom designed cams. I believe his name was Harold Brookshire. I want to try one myself eventually.

[@ninidog1989]

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

Some badass projects!

[@Paralytixc]

This video is strangely... relaxing

[@INSUFFICIENT-OFFICIAL]

Do mopars come factory with those double roller timing chains or whatever? I work only with chevys usually and have never seen one stock with one. Maybe just because it's an RV motor just for piece of mind?

[@NClawson]

Where do you go for any machining in this area, I haven’t found anyone who would do machining for headwork. Any suggestions?

[@xozindustries7451]

I know you fast forwarded through the cam install but did you put break in lube on the cam? It's a hydraulic flat tap pet cam correct?

[@DylanMcCoolVideo]

Yes I put break in lube on it. If you pause and look closely you can see it. I just skipped showing that part in the video.

[@xozindustries7451]

Dylan McCool Cool, I’d hate to see another cam wiped! Good job on the build

[@dalehadley.5895]

Is this just a gasket rebuild? Rings ok? Valve job?

[@jamesholt7612]

Very educational video Dylan.

[@HowardJrFord]

All 383 magnum, 440 magnum & 6 pack engines came with a windage tray :)

[@rs2klee]

just seen this as going through charger videos :) i take it it the crank and the shells were ok! i would have taken them out just to check, seen Chris from junkerup build many of these engines and found after taking it all apart expecting a good engine was near junk.

Are you like a mopar junkie? ( not trying to offend you I'm just wondering ) you dont find to many people are. You find people that like hemi's or parts about mopar but not to many mopar junkies. That's cool if you are brother. Keep up the good work love your channel. I just got done watching you do the interior of your 73 challenger.👍👍 Lates brother looking forward on watching you finish you challenger. Ps like the 70 just a little bit better. Good luck and fun and stay safe these days
