Q on New Yorker 1969 engine, trans, diff.
Is the 69 RB440 a good engine to build up for mild-moderate performance? I have a 69 New Yorker I want to put the
engine, trans and rear end in a 69 Dart.

The 69 440 should have a steel crank and 906 heads if your not using aluminum aftermarkets.

Can fit with the rite hardware.... But the differential is not a good swap. it's to wide.

You can narrow the housing and buy aftermarket axles. 🙂

will the axle housing come out of the differential to allow shortening or do you have to cut it and weld it back together?

Also, I know there are a handful of differentials out there. Are the 3rd members transferable among the 741,742, 489 differentials?
