Thank you for the answers. But the main issue is the left side one that is completely in closed by the K member. If I cut the head off it will fall inside and no access to it at all! Can I cut an access hole in the K member and weld the hole up?

Thank you, but I cannot get to the left one by the frame rail. It is all inclosed in the K member.

Hello everyone we need help!!! On our 66 Charger the bolts that hold the steering box on the K member have been over tightened at some point and the nuts that are welded to the K member have snapped the welds and just spin!! We got one bolt out on the right upper. The lower right one we can get...

Thank you!!

Thank you!!

My issue is not the steel brake line end for the hoses. It is where the hose screws into the wheel cylinder end for the front brakes. They just don’t seem to seat correctly. And yes they are both knock offs from Rock Auto! Can I get factory ones? Thank you for any advice!

The location of the vacuum advance is not the same as most pictures I have seen, ours is turned towards the radiator a lot more. And still needs to go more. To get 12.5 degrees at 500 rpm. Problem is the cap hits the head and won’t go more! That is why I think it maybe 180 out? Or maybe the plug...

A friend of mine came over and looked at our engine numbers. He advised we have a 1970 383 in our 1966 Charger we purchased. I have problems timing the engine. I have a Snap On timing light that you can dial to the desired degree. I set it at 12.5 degrees. With the vacuum advance hose removed...
