    After Market Gauge Sets

    My classic dash worked pretty well and I didn’t have to modify anything to fit my hvac controls.

    Head Lights dimming

    I know a guy with access to one! I may see if he wants to bring it next time he comes back this way! I would assume he would know what to look for?

    Head Lights dimming

    I have been driving my 2009 5.7 LX hemi swapped 73 RR for a few months and must say, I love driving again!! Lately I have found headlights are “surging” or dimming in time with the engine as it hunts a little up and down at idle... it’s not hunting bad just like the alternator is kicking on or...

    Where can I get these and what are they called?

    I got some Dorman Help adjusters the other day at the local parts store. It was the plastic insert and the adjusting screw. Sold by the pair.

    Different door jamb switch sizes?

    Thank you! I was trying not to use a reducer but it has crossed my mind! I actually had just found them in mega part’s Site and ordered them. I also got a new connector to Rewire my headlight harness. Their prices seem really good!

    The Willomet Charger

    I was checking out pictures and was like, wait... that's an LS! :rofl: I appreciate the awesome work you're doing, I was waiting to see the backlash after that picture! I have a Gen 3 in my car but I also have an LS swap in my C-10 and will be doing many more LS swaps in the the future, and...

    using the A/C heater system from a low mileage, wrecked car

    In my 73 Satty turned RR Clone, I used the factory AC and the late model Gen 3 parts. Here is a rough list of parts I used. Heater/AC Box rebuild kit from Detroit Muscle Technologies (all the foam and instructions to clean and reseal the box) New reproduction AC Evaporator (I think you're...

    FOR SALE Parting 1974 Plymouth Satellite

    Do you have the door switches still? If so are they 1/2" thread or 3/8" and do they look functional?

    73 Roadrunner Clone with 5.7/545rfe (very pic heavy)

    I had heard that as well and did a bunch of reading, a lot of guys have had success running it just like it is. So I'm going to try it. The fast ratio I'm sure would be awesome but this project has greatly eclipsed my budget already! lol I wish I could find out what the ps pump is that...

    1969 Plymouth Satellite Wagon - 2013 5.7/545RFE Swap

    If you look at my build thread and you want to do some fab work, you can run a factory p/s box with a low mount car compressor by cutting the motor perches off the k-member, flipping them backwards and indexing them off he rear mount. Then just cut your spools off the motor mount and move them...

    1969 Plymouth Satellite Wagon - 2013 5.7/545RFE Swap

    So from my swap here is a bit of help, hopefully... Windage trail from Milodon is a decent buy... It keeps the oil from sloshing and is supposed to preserve a pony or two when rough driving. I bought it and installed it... I would go through and mock up your harness and make sure all of the...

    73 Roadrunner Clone with 5.7/545rfe (very pic heavy)

    Fabricated an air box to keep heat out of the cold air intake from 19 ga steel. I plan to paint the intake tube orange and add the Coyote Duster logo I have ordered to the top as an homage to the ol' days...

    73 Roadrunner Clone with 5.7/545rfe (very pic heavy)

    Wow... that's awesome! What rear gears do you have? and if you had to do it over again would you run something different or keep them the same? I live in town and will really only travel long distances on vacation, etc...

    73 Roadrunner Clone with 5.7/545rfe (very pic heavy)

    So moving on, Nathan calls and says the Buick is done can I have the car at his place the next day. Fast forward to: and 24 hours later, the 2009 5.7 Hemi with 50k miles has been placed back on its rightful perches atop its throne of a k-member! Everything had already been mocked up and...

    73 Roadrunner Clone with 5.7/545rfe (very pic heavy)

    So this is the point in the story where things take a turn for our hero... I had put tape on a section of the rear quarter where the rear bumper was going to protect the paint. When I lifted the tape, some of the paint came with it. I'm not sure why, but the paint didn't stick in that section...

    73 Roadrunner Clone with 5.7/545rfe (very pic heavy)

    I got the bumpers where I wanted them but they had several years of dings and dents in them so I decided to paint them. Now I know the purists will not like them but, hey I do, and its mine! :lol: So it got a full shave job and the bolt heads got deleted! Front: And Back: After...

    73 Roadrunner Clone with 5.7/545rfe (very pic heavy)

    Aaaannnndddd, I'm back at it! So here is what has happened: The stock '73 bumpers were the first year of the wonderful new DOT standards that required the 5mph crash bumpers, so I thought they stuck out way further than I liked. So I brought the back bumper in about 1.25 inches and the front...

    73 Roadrunner Clone with 5.7/545rfe (very pic heavy)

    I had a bit of slump for a minute and stopped to LS swap a '77 C10 for my 16 year old son, It is an absolute blast to drive. Then I had to wait on my friend Nathan to finish his swap in his sick twin turbo 52 Buick before we could park mine on the lift! So starting last week have been putting...
