    WTB 1973 B Body big block K-Frame

    I’m looking for a 1973 B-body Big Block k frame to replace the rotten one in my Roadrunner. Moisture got trapped in between the body mounts and the frame. One of the four mounting points lost most of its metal when I took out the bad rubber mounts. Thanks in advance!

    Had to post this..

    Highly recommend Evans Wiring Harnesses! Bought the forward engine harness for my 73 Roadrunner a little over a year ago and I think it’s as close to the factory as you can get 46 years after it was manufactured. Now I’m converting the car to fuel injection and I have to make my own harness...

    Silly question about cam lobes and lifters

    Here it is: where should the lifter on a hydraulic flat tappet cam sit on the lobe? Does it rest dead center of the lobe or toward the timing chain side of the lobe? I ask this because of what I’m seeing on my car which is the lifter only riding on the front half of the cam lobe as the engine...

    Valve spring question

    I’ve got a Lunati Bracketmaster II cam installed in my 400. As per the specs on the cam card, it calls for a valve spring with an installed height of 1.820 @ 120lbs open load. I’ve got a set of PAC springs Hot Rod 1900 that I want to use that call for a 1.880 installed height @ 98lbs open load...

    Aftermarket intake question

    I took the intake off of my 400 (Performer 383) for cleanup and painting and I’m noticing a pretty reasonable build up of unburnt fuel collecting in the EGR runners. I’m not using an EGR valve on the engine so I’m wondering if there is any benefit to blocking off those runners permanently and...

    Decal colors

    Were the engine call out decals on the hood of the 73RR a different color than the stripe? For example, a black stripe with white engine call outs or black with black call outs. I would think they should be a contrasting color but I've been wrong before(my wife likes to point this out...

    73 Roadrunner horn question

    I'm sorry in advance if this question has been asked and answered in another post. I didn't see it when I was searching. Are these cars supposed to have 2 horns or just one? My car has one purple one mounted on the passenger side and a black one mounted on the driver's side. They are both...

    Drip rail mouldings

    Were drip rail mouldings a specific option that had to be ordered on 73 RR? Or were they part of an exterior trim option code? Thanks!

    A interesting situation

    I bought a set of PRW rollers with shafts, shims etc. from a vendor on Amazon that was listed as brand new. The vendor sent me an open box, the pushrod checker was obviously used and everything in the box was disturbed, plastic tray was all broken up. It looks like to me that someone mocked it...

    Side view mirror hardware

    I got a full set of painted racing mirrors from Carlisle. I separated the pedestal & housing and removed the mirror mechanism. Of course someone had tried and failed this at some point and I ended up drilling out one screw inside the housing for the mirror and one screw for the pedestal-to-...

    Dopey question #335

    So I'm working on my 73 RR 400ci. I have no idea what's inside the engine as I only bought the car a few years ago. Here's the dopey question which I will qualify after I get some responses: when turning the engine by hand at the balancer for determining TDC, what direction do you spin the...

    ECM bracket

    Did the 71-4 b bodies come from the factory with the ECM mounted to a bracket and then the bracket was mounted to the firewall? I know E bodies are set up this way? Thanks!
