One of the high school Chargers. Miss this one alot. Oh to be 17 again.....

68R/T

70 R/T

Unless I missed something, I dont see any dowel pins in the block to head. I had a coolant leak from that area from the head not sitting down completely so maybe if they are missing its causing a problem?

My son and I pulled the heads to get a better look. Heres a side to side comparison. What do you all think?

Its def thick in that area. Alot of 400s look like this in the same spot

I see this edge is knocked off on the block of some of 400s I see online. Mine is in the same spot only larger. Is this common or something to be concerned about?

Ok. I see a difference in them now. The two I posted appear to be non rally. They have the thicker inside edge and are 1/8" taller than the one in my 68 Charger.

These two I posted are identical in apperance and measurements in the ash receptical and have the same part number as on my 68. The ones I have must all be for the rally dash.

Ok will do, thanks

Heres the two I have side by side. The black one from a 68 Charger, the gold one from a standard dash 69 Coronet. I see the faint line in the middle on both. My green 68 Charger ash tray is the same as these two. I dont know what to think anymore.

Agreed. I had one of mine out the other weekend after a 4 year hiatus for rust repair and laziness. Almost forgot how well they drove.

The previous owner of my old 70 R/T cut the pistol grip end off the shifter and welded a ball to it with a line lock. Im not sure if it was for comfort or faster shifting at the track. I still have that shifter and am probably going to put it in my truck.

Must be a Coronet thing. I see them here.

Its interesting to see the variations of the same part. My 68 has only one set of the slotted holes on the ends as said above. In my pic the bottom bracket is off a very late 69 Charger and the top bracket is off of a 70 Charger using the 2nd pattern of slotted holes on the end. Note the extra 2...
