Parts are very expensive, and adapters for the transmission are too. I think you are better off using a stroked small block, or a stock 383-440 block. It can be done, but why? At $11,000, you can drop in a Generation II Hemi motor, with less problems. And still look "cool". Jimmy On 1/4/13, mrdozerman@xxxxxxx <mrdozerman@xxxxxxx> wrote:
Anyone have any good opinions on 392 hemi engines 57-58. I see you can buythem for around 3000 and probably have about 8000 in them when done and theywould look so cool in a 62 dart b body, but realize 8000 buys a very nicerebuilt 413 or 440 and would also do up a nice 310 poly dual quad, personal perference i guess and not going to race it but cruise in it, but wondering if the hemi really has the horsepower and not sure what bellhousing it usesto maintain pushbuttons, thanks Russell -----Original Message----- From: Ollie <satellite1965@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: 1962to1965mopars <1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Fri, Jan 4, 2013 6:36 am Subject: Re: Leaky power steering gear box Tim, I had the same problem on my 65 Satellite and on my 41 Ply Street Rod that used a 65-80 Valiant steering box.I fixed the 65 Satellite by removing only the top “O” ring and getting a newone at the hardware store for 25 cents. I fixed the 41 by replacing the complete steering box. From my experience, if the top “O” ring does not fix you up, I would say you would be better off replacing the whole steering box rather thanattempting to rebuild it. When you open it up parts will fly every where andyou will end up buying a complete unit. My free opinion.

Pleaserefer here http://s8.beta.photobucket.com/user/tnaz71/media/2013-01-032204261_zps29c9fe5b.jpg.html; the leak is coming from that dome (circled in red) How hard it is to putthose seals in? The kit I found (GATES Part # 350510 Power Steering Repair Kit; Stg. GearComplete Rebuilding Kit) The complete rebuild kit is $35 from rock auto & Ican get the whole unit from $103. Thanks as always!
