I have a 46RH in my 69 Road Runner. It was rebuilt a couple years ago. It works great, ecxept at full throttle. At WOT it wants to rev well over 6000 and wont upshift. I have adjusted the kick down cable, Bouchillon, to get my street driving shift points reasonable. If I adjust the cable to...
Its been well over a year since this derelict Satellite followed me home. The paint is done. Now all the shiny and/or new parts can go back on.
The link is from a year ago when I started the dissasembly. I dont like yellow cars, and currently I have a 73 in yellow. So the 72 had to change...
Where do I measure from? I know it right over the wrist pin center of the piston. The 440 source dished pistons sit below the hole in the dish, .012" above the hole at the pad. Should I use the above the hole in the pad area for my height measurement? If so Summits compression calculator puts...
My 505 is toast. 2 broke pistons and the rest scored. How did it happen? I dont know yet. It denotated horribly. so what can cause that? Too much timing? Running lean? Failing fuel pump, clogged carb? Bad gas?
This engine has a 440 Source 440-512-5060 kit in it. PP240 heads. That should put it...
Who remembers the Gator McClusky car? Burt Rynolds was the Main character, Gator. The car was a 4 door 1971 Ford Custom 500. Not a Mopar but still a cool movie car. I would not mind owning one for a while.
I nicked a cam bearing while cleaning the block. So I got a set of Clevite bearings, took out the #2 bearing, Looked it over and knocked it in. Just changed the #2 bearing. Now the cam wont go all the way in. It stops about 1/8" going in to the bearing. very stiff trying to rotate it. Wont turn...
Can anyone remember the original apperance of the dash cluster and dash vent panel. The colors may not be the same for all years, 71 to 74. I remember them having the black streaks along with the brown color giving it a wood looking apperance. Is that correct? This one I am working on has the...
I have a Dakota Digital cluster module and a TCM430 trans controller to hide somewhere. I am not using the factory radio, I have a single din unit in its place. That freed up some room. The contollers need to be accessible so this is what did. They unfold and come down.
Put the money aside. I am spending the kids inheritance. They'll get it back when I am dead.
I have a couple cut clusters that I have taken out and put uncut clusters in there place. Since I am a Mopar parts hoarder they never got tossed out. This one is a 74 only cluster. Had a giant hole...
I am looking for ideas. I want to put some comfortable bucket seats in my 72 Satellite. The stock buckets are not comfortable for longer trips, and act like wooden benches when cornering and doing more spirited driving. I have Procar 1100 seats in my 73. They are great for track day, but not for...
I am restoring the dash right now for my 72 Satellite. The VIN is off the dash for cleaning and repaint. I have new rivets and Chrysler decal coming from ECS for it. Painted the tag flat black. I see so many tags with the raised lettering shiny, not paint color like the rest of the tag. Some...
I have a worn out 72 400. I need it to replace my 505 while it is out of the car getting refreshed. The 400 is stripped down to the bare block ready to go to the machine shop. I would like to just do a rings and bearings refresh if possible. The cylinder bores have some ridge, the cross hatch is...
I should try to make a video on how noisy the engine is. It has Howards roller lifters and Harland Sharp roller rockers. The HS rockers are for Edelbrock and Trick Flow heads. I have the Trick Flow PP240 heads. This is on a stroked 440. The engine clacks like a diesel at idle, but goes away with...
I have used everything from the $29 parts store pumps to to $250 rebuildable pumps. Cant get more then 2 years of life out of them. I put 3 to 5 thousand miles a year on my 73. Thats more miles then most old cars get. But, fuel pumps are not supposed to fail that quickly. The rubber diaphrams...
