Nice!!!

It does, now, have two throttle return springs. Haha.

It’s not factory original, more of a “this how I like it”. I thought I had better pics….

I need to order a new carpet for my '73 Road Runner. It has bucket seats with a buddy seat (the fold up arm rest) between them. Classic Ind shows two options: 4-speed bench seat and 4-speed bucket seats with console. For some reason, I have it in my head that for my set up, I need the bench...

Thanks. I actually took the original to a local radiator shop who has been known for good work in the area for many years. He didn’t recore it but he flushed it out and did whatever else he thought it needed. It’s leaked at the upper hose inlet joint ever since. I am kinda at the point...

My '73 small block RR was ordered with N51 Maximum Cooling so it has the 28" radiator (P/N 3673028) in it. I want to replace it with a new radiator but so far, I haven't found a direct fit replacement. I am thinking to just go with an aluminum 26" model, but I am wondering what changes between...

@scottyv here is a pic I found showing the factory 3 spd set up from my car with bucket seats but no console and a 4spd with bucket seats. Hope it helps.

It is packed away with all the other take off parts. I’ll see if I can get to it.

Good info. I bet that “spin the engine without coil connected” process would have saved me some grief.

I took the cap off to watch what was happening and saw the pump was picking all the fluid into the system and emptying the reservoir. When I shut the engine off all the fluid rushes back into the reservoir and over flowed. I took a chance and added fluid with a long funnel while it was...

It’s Prestone brand power steering fluid. Says it’s compatible with all types and manufacturers.

No, I had the tires on pieces of cardboard on concrete shop floor. I’m going to do the lock to lock process again and will jack up the front end.

I put a new power steering gear, pump and lines on my ‘73 Road Runner. I added fluid and started the engine then shut it off to check the fluid level. I added some and I guess put too much in. Then I started the engine and did the turn it lock to lock to try and purge the air out. I turned...

No ballast resistor required and the primary resistance of the coil matches what the HEI is looking for.

It must have been the lag through the relay. When I jumped from the choke wire to the coil positive it started right up. Thanks guys for your input.
