I was having problems with slow, sticky shifts and when we took the case apart, it seems that the main shaft has damaged the input shaft. I need to replace both the input and main shaft. I have found several sources for the input shaft, but NOTHING for the main shaft that all the gears go on.

Anyone know of a source?

Sure did Mopar Man ... BUTT ... can you believe it?? I got the bird out of the shop and 15 mins later the engine was toasted!

The air cleaner stud fell through the Holley and visited at least 3 different intake valves!

I am going to go with a stroker kit for my 400 block and take it to 470 cubic inches... you guys can follow the progress by clicking on the above link.

I am going to go with a stroker kit from www.440source.com and still researching a roller cam/rocker set. Some nice head work... going to keep the original heads, but port em and put in slightly larger valves.

I will eventually drive it to the muffer shop and add 3" pipes all the way from the Hookers to a "X" pipe and out a set of "machine gun" tips.....

Exciting time for me and the bird....
