If you just squint really hard it makes it harder to see what’s really going on :rofl:

Without the A01 light package I assume? Light package included the following to my knowledge for a 69 coronet. 1. Map light 2. Ignition switch light with time delay off. 3. Ash tray light 4. Glove box light 5. Trunk compartment light 6. Fender mounted turn signals

1.969 compression height? 1.696 would put them way way down. Even at 1.969 with a stock block they are what I consider way down, .100 +. Pistons and getting proper quench + cam selection are the 2 most important things to get right when building an engine. Just my opinion, of course…

Yup. Probably be about .140 down in the hole. That coupled with a .035 head gasket and open chamber iron heads equals a complete dog of an engine :thumbsup:

I don’t recall ever seeing stickers like that on any 68-70 roadrunner. Or any other B body for that matter.

In my opinion if your planning on staying with iron heads 9.5:1 compression is pushing the limits using pump gas. Might be able to go higher depending on where you live, tuning, cam choice and lots of other factors. In 2000 I had a 440 built with stock 906 heads. Speed pro “6 pack” pistons. Zero...

Sure, if you want something that won’t be able to get out of its own way. Probably be around 7.5:1 compression.

Can you imagine the shipping cost for a bag of rocks. :rofl: :rofl:

Geez, 3 months of afr driving you nuts so you say eff it and sell the whole car lol. :poke:

.

This is what I was wondering as well. Might be a small block distributor? Think the are longer than a B engine but shorter than an RB. So that might be the reason for the minimal engagement? I could be all mistaken on that as well lol.

Welcome. I’m from southeast WA state. Bout 30 minutes from Walla Walla.

That is a 70 and later tailshaft. Notice the dual shifter mounting locations. The crosmembers are different prior to 70 as well. Need the crossmember for a 70 as mentioned and it should bolt in.

I was assuming that the op would be planning on changing the box but was just concerned with the brackets and pulleys.
