    cold remedies?

    Brandy will make you sweat it out. LOL Zinc supplements help shorten the duration if taken within 24 hours. About all you can do is treat the symptoms and make yourself more comfortable. It's a virus and your body just has to fight it to get over it.

    Should I add these when I put my oem exhaust manifolds?

    Great. Thanks guys. My ‘71 383/727B Roadrunner was built in Nov. of ‘70. There’s no reason why these wouldn’t have been there originally? Right? I guess they get painted hemi orange as well? By the way, these are the only ones I see for that engine, can someone confirm that? Thanks again.

    Cam for 440 street build

    I ran the XE274 hydraulic cam in an 8.5-1 440 (sitting on the floor waiting for me to decide what to do with it)and it did fine. Withe the smaller of the cams you mentioned 8.95-1 is fine and the solid lifter cam should make more power. I am sure it would run fine with the 915 heads but I bet it...

    What the Hellcat? 10 Years Ago, Dodge Won the Horsepower Wars

    After gentle break in, there were a few surprises. Usually in traffic, or a little late under a caution. Be careful not to knee jerk anything like you would in the old or other car. Never owned anything that is so willing to lay rubber down at 45-50 MPH. Gotta pay attention, or be...

    WTB I am in the beginning stage of looking for a 1968 Superbee to purchase.

    Yes, I have seen that one, and it is a nice car with a good price, but I want to real 1968 WM21 Super Bee if at all possible. If it proves impossible, I might go for a different model of 68 Coronet or even a 69 Super Bee. I have only been looking for a couple of months, so I am good to hang on...

    Break in oil for new 440

    My understanding is if you have roller lifters you don’t need the zinc and the 30 minute breaking period for the cam at 2000 rpm. You have a flat tappet cam so I would think you did need that rotella and 30 minute cam/lifter period. My engine builder is using and recommended Rotella for...

    1968 Plymouth GTX

    When disassembling my transmission I noticed something missing. There is supposed to be a spring on the plunger located on the right according to the video I am watching but mine did not have a spring there? I have the tranny on a table and don't believe the spring fell out. Searched high and...

    Cam for 440 street build

    Get rid of those pistons. You'll break them revving up a cammed up engine. There are shelf flat top forged pistons out there. This should be your first priority.

    Installation Tips for Longtube Headers in 383

    I’m pretty sure TTI sells manifold back exhaust systems. If your engine is mostly stock, headers won’t add much hp. Headers are a pain for sure.

    Roll up quarter window cat whiskers question

    Hi All, A set of inner and outer core window weatherstripping came in the parts box that came with our 69B. My question is is the profile of the cat whisker in the picture correct? The inner metal panel curves upward slightly towards the door, but the cat whiskers on both sides are straight. Is...

    69 road runner door contour question.

    Here’s a pic that really shows the ‘dip’ or ‘swale’ in the doors. The stripe on the car makes it easy to see how aggressive the hips are on the car.

    I don't remember seeing this in the old days??

    Chrysler fixed it years ago. Something about replacing the clutch with a fluid coupler. If they had only had lockup capacity at the time.
