BTW and just for the records and for those who don’t know, there is no 360 Magnum emblem for 74 Rallyes with 360 Magnum. Just says MAGNUM.

Applies the same for A and E bodies ( just Sport/Duster on A ) 74 was the first year 360 was offered on a diff body than C

360 Magnum replaced the 340 Magnum on 74 for HiPo cars (Rallye in the case of the Charger), also available on 4 doors (standard engine, not Magnum), something what was not posible with 340s up to 73

But… 360s were not available to B bodies up to 74. Until that, just C bodies got them. Maybe Changed along its lifes?

Dutchman panel along with the package tray distance is way shorter on 3rd gens, so provisions on them are un existant and this was not an option

I didn’t try hard since my car was being dissasembled for a deep body job, but on a first try I couldn’t. The rear bracket provision did meet with deck lid torsion bars as far I recall. But it seems is posible per the 70Chall440 pics making that custom job.

Damn! Dunno why I had in mind the speedo cable LOL

On a side note, I predicted the brush fail as a posibility on my last post (last paragraph) LOL

Still with original setup, unfortunately factory alt capacity is tipically not enough. Sooner or later the lack of power blows up something somewhere. Is better get an 80 amps feeding allways a constant 35-45 amps capacity even at iddle but a batt resting, than loose iddle capacity and get up to...

I think never have seen what you guys are talking about LOL

If you replace on your 72 with 71s kind, you’ll miss the seatbelt warning system function and will never stop to buzz as soon you seat on your car and put the key in RUN. Unless you disconect the seatbelt control relay.

No as far I know. 71s are one setup, then 72-73, then 74. 72/74 rears are the same thought, but not fronts

Ground the green wire will do effectively… full field the alt. that (not burn the wiring, but just if there is a short around). Not recommended for a regular ride around but for testing the alt, confirming it is working or not. Of course in case of emergency by a regulator failure on the road...

Get a drill with reverse speed and known RPMs… a piece of speedo wire… or indeed the full speedo wire itself and all is about to make the maths As far I recall it’s 1000 rpm’s for 60 mph. If you got a 800 rpm’s drill, well, the speedo should read 48 mph… Give an initial tension to the...

Aaand, here is
