    how to support car when checking for frame straightness

    How do you support a 71 b body when checking for frame straightness? I'll be using the service manual to get dimensions and tolerances, then using simple measuring tools, nothing fancy. Just want to make sure I'm not getting a false measurement because I put jack stands in the wrong places

    71 door latch. can't find new. interchangeable?

    My door latch on my charger is broken. I've been looking for reproduction latches but cannot find them. Is there any other year/make/model that has the same door latch as a 71-74 b body? Possibly later 70's to 90's? Those years might actually still be sold at part stores and dealerships

The heads and valve covers had a lot of hard oil gunk buildup, but since the engine is in the car I couldnt think of a way to clean...

    need some thoughts on right stroker combo

    Im picking my combo right now. I have a 400 block and a 440 block I can use.
