Re: 1964 440 and Poly 318

Hi,

thank you folks for the very warm welcome. Happy New Year everyone!

@Mike: Great Coronet, it looks beautiful!

@Bruce: Thank you, I've seen some of your parts on fb, I would have jumped on those head studs if mine were in lesser condition than I found.

Head work on my engine will -if I get it done- only be a bit cleaning behind the valve seats and the stems, nothing too spectacular.

@Gary: Thats very nice, I read your build article, of course, and I read some of your recommendations on camshafts. I would be very happy to get some hints on purchase options, choosing a proper cam degree and maybe possibilities for hydraulic lifters...

@all;-)

Will it be of interest to the group if I describe my planned engine 'build' (it is not a performance approach) and the resulting car characteristic, when I'm hopefully done?

Best regards,

Thomas

Let me know if I can help you with any of your Poly camshaft questions Thomas. I can also send you information on
sources for Poly engine parts that you can purchase online. Have a great New Year!
