Don't have time for jokes, but the last time I looked they went on the spark plugs.
The spark plug gap for the Chrysler 440 CID V8 engine typically ranges from 0.035 to 0.045 inches (0.89 to 1.14 mm). It's important to check the specific recommendations for your vehicle's model year and specifications, as variations may exist. Always ensure the spark plugs are gapped correctly for optimal performance and efficiency.

The crankshaft in the Chrysler 440 engine rotates in a clockwise direction when viewed from the front of the engine. This rotation is typical for most American V8 engines. The engine’s design allows for efficient power delivery and operation, contributing to its performance.
In a 1968 Chrysler 440 engine, the number 1 piston is located at the front of the engine on the driver's side. The cylinders are numbered from front to back, with cylinder 1 being the first cylinder on the left side when facing the engine. This layout is typical for Chrysler's V8 engine design, following a specific numbering sequence.

The oil temperature switch on a Chrysler 440 engine is typically located on the oil filter adapter or near the oil pan. It is often found on the driver's side of the engine block. For exact placement, consulting the specific service manual for the engine model year can provide detailed information.
When the number one cylinder is at top dead center (TDC) on a 440 Chrysler engine, the rotor button should be positioned pointing directly at the number one spark plug terminal on the distributor cap. This alignment ensures that the ignition system fires the correct cylinder at the right time, facilitating optimal engine performance. Additionally, it's important to ensure that the engine is on the compression stroke, not the exhaust stroke, when checking this alignment.
