OP disappeared as if he owed ME money.

The "Pump it Down" article is great for showing enthusiasts how to reduce pressure in the Mopar power steering system. It will not make up for worn or sloppy components.

I may not have the best track record. With Jigsaw, I considered swapping in a wider axle to be able to use a set of wheels that I have here. Lookie what $5000 buys you.... Start at post #1380. I have a set of 16" wheels that were modified for another car that was tubbed. I have been trying to...

OR buy the right wheels.

No, the outer and center are dual filament and use 1157 bulbs. The inner bulb on each side, closest to the middle of the car, are single filament 1095 bulbs. Those are hard to find. Use the #87 or 89 as a substitute. The wattage is similar. The outer and middle bulbs are tail, brake and turn...

Were there any 5.7 equipped cars imported to you guys?

I'm guessing that if a man were to be able to cut, weld, fabricate and bargain shop, he could do a 5.7 swap for under $3000. I'd never swap in a Chevy engine though. I respect what they are but what they are NOT is Mopar. Using a chevy engine when Mopar engines are within reach is like one dude...

Another for the IGNORE list.

That is a flashback seeing that picture with the automatic transmission shifter there!

Ha ha.... Are your eyes like this: Or this?

I could rig up an adjustable tubular bar clamp set to expand rather than to compress....but I think that a single purpose tool like that would rarely get used. A 2 x 4 cut to size makes more sense to me since I always have sections of lumber around here.

A buddy of mine races a couple of B body Mopars in the 24 hours of LEMONS events and told me yesterday that they go through a 727 every TWO races! How is it that a drag racer can shock the heck out of theirs over and over and it holds together while an endurance race like LEMONS wears them out...

I have this memory of using MEK as a cleaning solvent and having the rubber gloves I was wearing just shred and fall apart. It is weird because the MEK didn't do a good job of cleaning but sure ate the heck out of the gloves.

I'd add that IF your electrical demands are not increased by adding electric fans, a bunch of lights, a powerful stereo or a series of ah-ooooo-gah! horns, the alternator and wiring may be safe as it is. Ehrenberg has often mentioned the very same thing. I bypassed 3 cars now but 2 of them had...

It is cheap and easy though, just like my cousin.

I have a couple of comments..... How heavily milled was that stock head? I've cc'd a few and uncut open chamber heads are often near 90 ccs, I had a few come in around 86 ccs after a few resurface jobs. Oh yeah...I was close to 11 to 1 with aluminum heads and with anything less than 110...

I have not seen any spacer that had a raised hub ring like those did. Have you ever noticed how road racers are often thinner than drag racers? I've seen numerous straight line guys well over 300 lbs but the guys that turn the wheel are always in better shape. I read once where a road course guy...
