I guess I'm not completely clear on what you're asking for.  Do you need pages from a shop manual to do a rebuild or are you just looking for pics of a completed engine for some external resto work you're doing?

No need to apologize for the english.  It has to be a 400?  What year are you looking for?  The rebuild instructions and specs for the most part are going to be the same as for a 383.  Obviously there are a number of differences, but it depends on what you are doing.

he is dealing ( is a friend of mine here in Venezuela ) with some oil problems since is not arriving up to top of engine ( heads, rockers, tappets ), but I think he wants to know  completely the engine interior parts, ducts, etc...
Venezuelan RT 74 400 4bbl, 727, 8.75 3.23 open. Now stroked with 440 crank and 3.55 SG. Here is the History and how is actually: http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,7603.0/all.html

Ah, now I get it.  What you need ultimately is the whole manual.  Are those Mopar shop manuals on cd-rom a viable option?

on tech bookstores it is possible to find the Mopar engines rebuild guide, but they aren't cheap, so he is trying to find the best info throught the net

recent rebuild?

If so did you prime the oil pump?

Worn out motor?

does the oil press gauge show oil press?  

If so then how much?

I knew a guy that tried and tried to figure out the same symptom, turns out he had spun the number 4 cam bearing that supplies oil to the rocker shafts.   Had him stumped for a while, sometimes it's just really hard to track down an oiling problem.   That was the only spun cam bearing.   And it was a recent rebuild.   Listen for a faint dry "squeak" at idle, assuming you want to run it with no oil on the rockers.
