    The Elephant In The Room: unloading the load from a B-body.

    Wait, what makes the stainless steel bumper so much lighter than the OE bumper? Is it actually weightless steel?

    Original pictures of my hemi roadrunner drag car

    Very cool having pics of the good ol' days. Quick question, why was "the Grump Hump" scoop on backwards in a couple of photos? Love the injectors, I actually have one of those (for a Hemi) as a 'conversation piece' because I could never afford the rest of the Hemi.

    parallel parking is a lost art.......

    It's part of the driving test for a Pennsylvania Drivers License. (But not back when I got mine - horse and buggy weren't that maneuverable in tight spaces.)

    First time on forum. Just purchased a 1966 Charger. My name is Patrick and reside in good ol' Virginia.

    Nice looking Charger. Welcome from the Charlottesville area of VA

    The Elephant In The Room: unloading the load from a B-body.

    I read somewhere (in relation to transmissions) that a pound of rotating weight took 7 HP.

    Trans Oil Cooler

    I like to mount the trans cooler in front of the radiator but to the side away from the top radiator hose inlet. The inlet side is generally the hottest point so I like to give it the clearest air path. That way, if the trans cooler disrupts the air flow, it will be in front of the 'cooler' side.

    440 Starter Information

    There is an extension available for the 'reversed post' starters. It is similar to the one available for the factory mini starter. I sell these as well as the ones for the factory starters. Might save you some time. Jus sayin..

    how hard would it be to fit a 71,72 Plymouth satellite front bumper on a 73?

    The hoods will bolt on, but the front edge is different. the 71/72 is basically flat (straight) but the 73/74 has a 'bump' because of the body line going back from the headlights.

    how hard would it be to fit a 71,72 Plymouth satellite front bumper on a 73?

    There are so many differences between the two. Body lines, bumper mounting points, I think even the front frame rails are different because of the change in subframe/mounting. I wouldn't go as far as to say it is impossible, but it would certainly be a challenge.

    The Elephant In The Room: unloading the load from a B-body.

    It's also about less rotating weight (w/904).

    You seem to have UNLOCKED some of the mysteries of reducing weight....

    The Elephant In The Room: unloading the load from a B-body.

    I was just curious. You hear of so many special titanium race parts but I haven't heard about titanium pushrods. I wonder what the disadvantages might be (aside from cost).
