Looking into possibly going with a gear vendors for my 70 charger 4 speed. I don’t want to cut the car up to put a modern trans in it. Does anyone here have one on the back of their 4 speed? I’m building the car to drive, and would like to do power tour with it.
I guess I’m just a perfectionist and wanted it lined up perfect. I was tapping it in and knocked it a touch past being centered. After reading, I guess it doesn’t need the entire oil hole opening to work and likely would have been fine.
I really didn’t want to open anything up and have to deal...
I mean you can build a ls cheap in comparison to something like a nicely built big block mopar.
Yeah I hear you. If the cam bearing goes, it’ll probably result in needing all new bearings and a crank polish as well. In addition to gaskets.
I have all the odds and ends covered. It’s got some...
I have heard you can do it, assuming it’s not damaged and placed in the same bore. But I also understand that if it loses material on the back it has the potential to be looser. I just hate to have to buy a whole new set because one was tapped in a slight bit too far and had to come out.
I was...
I know it’s not the best practice…but let’s say I misaligned the oil hole on a cam bearing. How risky is pressing it back out and reinstalling it in the same bore?
Possible that it’s fine, or high risk for a spun bearing? It seemed to fit tight, just not as tight as the first install.
This is...
My old one turned into a single speed. Looking into the classic auto industries repro. They market this as a 1968-1969 part, but don’t seem to have a 1970 one.
This should be the same, correct?
I have talked with the tech building the harness a decent bit. They had some universal mopar type harnesses before, but not a designated year model harness for the b bodies.
It sounds like other companies may have one on the market sooner, but these guys are clearly putting the thought and effort into making a better product. I’m sure they will speak up on all the differences, but they did decide to do a separate harness for the 70 vs the 68-69 as an example.
Keep your eyes open for future products from these guys…my car was the builder car for the prototype 70 charger harness! No ETA…but they are a good company and they make a well thought out harness.
Plans changed from a carb setup to a Holley sniper, so it’s easier to just run their hyperspark distributor with the hyperspark coil and timing box.
This has the variable phase rotor in it and is locked out. You’d need to get the parts to go back to stock if that’s the route you want to go...
My 70 charger headlight motor is noisy and the plastic piece that holds the square rod is broken. Unfortunately it looks like it needs a rebuild. Being a one year part, and expensive, who is the go to guy for rebuilds? And any estimates on price? I will also need to get my 3 speed wiper motor done.
My 70 charger floor shift car apparently has an e body column shift column. It needs a full rebuild inside, since the ignition, turn signals and all of those are all not working.
I know some places sell repro steering columns…what are the pros and cons to buying reproduction vs buying an oem...
I caved and bought the Classic Auto kit. I have heard it performs better, and for me the layout of the controls looked way better than how the Vintage Auto Air unit was set up.
I filed out the holes to make them work…and it did flatten out once the nuts were tightened down. It’s frustrating to have those issues for sure. Some studs are clearly under more tension than others. Supposedly all were test fitted on an engine there, but my oil pan studs didn’t all line up...
I have a 400 stroker with the AE engineering Billet timing cover and stock alternator and power steering brackets. I would assume I want the 2 ring ATI for stock locations?
I hate to play 1000 questions, but this is my first build and I don’t want to buy the wrong parts. I have been...
