In 1966 Hemi mufflers were unique to only the Hemis. Measurements are in the 1966 parts book, which mine is 40 miles away from me. I think the original part# ended in 902. I can check tomorrow.

I think the 67 could be bought with 3-sp stick, with column shift.

Just to clarify, the Tremic trans is included.

it’s amazing how much knowledge is available here on B-Bodies. As in science & politics there are always differing opinions. That is not bad. Old staying: There is a right way, a wrong way, and always ANOTHER way. I am 82. My MoPar days were were back in the 50s & 60s. With all the...

I owned an HP2 Satellite back in 66. They were the very first production run. Since there were only about 53 HP2 cars built, I would say they were all 4-speeds.

All of the original Street Hemis in 66 were 4-speeds. At introduction in Jan66 MoPar did not yet have the Tor-Flite beefed up enough for the Hemi. I am not sure when the autos were available, maybe late April. I do know, Back in early Feb66 I ordered a 66 Hemi Charger w/auto. In early May...

How about a picture of the Carb setup?

Thanks Dave for the good info.

Dave, you are correct. You seem to be pretty knowledgeable, so I have question for you. Back in 66 I don’t remember ever having cooling problem with the stock radiators, even in west Texas in the Summer. Now talking to guys a car shows, and mine, we are having cooling problems with original...

Ok

I did this back 66. Dave6T4 said it correctly. Driver’s side mounting is the same for both radiators. A piece of metal must be cut from the passenger side. Drill 2 holes that will accommodate original fasteners, line up with radiator holes. I don’t recall any welding. Dress the cut, prep for...

Rich, Very interesting!

I assume it is in ND? If it was 15 miles from me, I would buy it for $1,000 for a parts car. Does it have a rear window?

I have two 66 426 Hemis that do just what you describe. Both are fully stock. Since I have owned them I have used non-ethanol gas in them. (One 4 yrs, the other 2 yrs) Both fire up instantly within a an hour or two of being shut off. After about 5 hrs of sitting on a summer day it acts like it...

Very nice!
