    69 Charger on the autocross

    1000% I'm trying to get the most i can out of a true to form muscle car. The whole idea is you don't need to spend $20k on a bunch of sales pitches from XYZ company selling the latest "geometry correcting" doo-dad and performance enhancement. I keep saying, these cars don't handle bad as...

    69 Charger on the autocross

    Someday i might try a set of Hoosier TDR tires. But yes there are almost no options for a good muscle car sized tire for handling. Yes I've read that r2's have stiffer sidewalls. And yes you definitely feel them shift in a hard turn. Comparing to my old Cooper cobra tires it feels like there is...

    Noise / rattling during cruise /idle with video

    Collapsed lifter? Your oil pressure is a fair bit lower than I would be comfortable with in my car too.

    69 Charger on the autocross

    275/50-15's both front and rear and running nitto 555r2 tires. They stick like crazy but you have to get used to the delayed turn in response. My steering box is factory and it has some typical slop. It's all muscle car. Nothing real trick about it. Even has 4 wheel drum brakes which are working...

    69 Charger on the autocross

    I do need to get a temp gun and do this. Next autocross isn't until July 20th. :(

    69 Charger on the autocross

    So autocross season has come again. I really haven't done and new modifications. But after the first event of the season I decided to pull the lower control arm on the driver's side because that side seemed to have different alignment than the right side. Found the lca pivot pin sleeve in the k...

    New failure mode unlocked!

    I'm a little rusty with the arc welder but I think it'll hold.

    New failure mode unlocked!

    Can't say I've ever seen the LCA sleeve in the k frame fail before. Time to bust out the welder.

    Indy 500 anyone?

    I was mildly interested simply for Kyle Larson. I didn't watch but would pull up the running order occasionally through the race. Same for the 600. I never sit and watch a race. I'll watch a 10 min highlight and listen to a podcast or 2 next week about it while driving to and from work.

    All else being equal, what power gains could be expected from Trick Flow 240s over Edelbrock heads on a 500 cube mill ?

    Thread is relevant to my interests. I've always expected about 30hp and 15ftlbs better from trick flow vs anything else out of the box. But if I did some home shop porting I'm curious what I could get back. I'm a budget conscious builder too.

    What to expect from 1970 383 HP

    I love 383's. Cam, intake, carb, and headers will put you over 400hp. If you're willing to mess with heads a home port job will get you a fair bit more. Rev like a small block, torque like a big block.

    69 Charger front bucket seat substitution

    Whatever Chris birdsong has in his charger I'd love to find. They look like sparco or procar seats but are saddle tan and have a similar pattern to original seats.

    H vs X Pipe ?

    You and I must have similar algorithms. YouTube just popped this up for me today too.

    Taking oil filter out with fan shroud

    Same situation for me and it stopped me from putting a shroud on. My cooling is good anyway. I've got the bigger 26" or whatever AC radiator. No chance I could get the filter out without dropping the bar or taking the shroud off.

    Another 'how old is everybody' thread.....

    I wouldn't have guessed I'd be in the youngest 5 of this thread at 39.

    Make my bird faster

    You could go a lot looser on your stall and squeeze another 50hp out of your engine and not hurt your street ability in my opinion
