    Making Cup Holders that mount to a bench seat?! Just hold it between your knees.

    I did. But had it covered at a local shop. Covering is 1/8in. headliner foam backing with vinyl left over from the seats.

    Making Cup Holders that mount to a bench seat?! Just hold it between your knees.

    That's pretty cool, I was faced with a similar dilemma as I needed to hide the 3 1/2 in. dog leg from the Tremec that brings the shift lever into correct position. Thought cup holders and a USB port would be nice. After a couple of failed ideas, this is what I came up with. It's not mounted to...

    2022 Mopar Nationals, Columbus, Oh. 8/12-14

    Looks like the moparnats site has been hacked again. Hope they get that fixed soon. Just spoke with National Kart Rental, they have the Nats info but reservations are not open yet, as of today (5/13). I'm beginning to struggle a little with, should I enter the judged class or just go enjoy the...

    2022 Mopar Nationals, Columbus, Oh. 8/12-14

    Thinking of entering the RR in the judged classes this year. I haven't attended for a while do to events of life and covid. But I'm not getting any younger and I've never had the car there, this is a bucket list thing while I'm still able. Probably don't have a chance playing with the big boys...

    It's the original 383 block .040 over, stock 889 heads with machining and valve train work. I believe the engine builder used Mopar Prefomance head gaskets.

    I have not done that yet, will do. Probably be a couple days, I'm committed through the weekend.

    No, they do not.

    Yes, they are both pulling. They are controlled from the Terminator EFI, #1 on 170 off 160, #2 on 175 off 165. Have them set there to get them going fairly quick, They are consistent. Thanks.

    That looks exactly like the 22" setup I got from ECP (Engineered Cooling Products) 2-1" tubes and same monster fans that pulled about 50 amps and very noisy! That setup was about 200 down the road but shot up pretty quick at idle. Still out of my comfort zone with AC.

    Hose isn't collapsing, with cap off looks to be decent flow as compared to what I've seen in other vehicles.

    First, thanks for the complement! I copied some of this from my original post. I personally am a 200 max guy. Over the last few years have been through various 22" radiator, shroud, and fan (electric & mechanical) combo's with basically the same results, too hot, 205 (min.) down the road, 220+...

    I'm with you! I like the coldcase setup but in my case just can't seem to get the right airflow going.
  13. dburnett6263

    68 RR 383 Still Getting Hot

    Yes, I have tried it without the new custom shroud / valance / cowling, no change. I've been dealing with this issue before the change to the larger ColdCase setup. It's a nice system.

    I will check that, pulley is the original, non AC car. So far I'm not running the AC till I get this ironed out. Thanks

    68 RR 383 Still Getting Hot

    I could live with those conditions. I don't get a lot of change from down the road, 50ish MPH (200-210), so when I drop into stop and go it goes up from there (220+ pretty quick) and that's no AC. I don't have anything exotic that would suggest a cooling issue and feel I have plenty of radiator...

    No. AC was not on the car when I got it, added during the restore. Thanks. Dale

    68 RR 383 Still Getting Hot

    Yes, I've thought as well, is there some way to get some heat out from under the hood, I do not want to do any cutting and hacking.

    To the best of my knowledge the pump housing is original to the engine. I have 2 electronic gauges, 1 being the Dakota Digital, the other the Terminator readout. Checking at idle with my laser unit, everybody's pretty close. Thanks. Dale

    Thanks, I'll check those out.

    I'm running 50/50 mix with 2 bottles of water wetter. Straight 30w VR1, w/ a bottle of lucas oil stabilizer and a shot of comp cams zinc additive. Thinking on going to Joe Gibb's Driven 10w30 next go round. I only heat my shop when I'm out there so probably leave the 50/50 alone. Only non...
