    Core Supports, Radiators and Fan Shrouds on a '73 Road Runner

    My '73 small block RR was ordered with N51 Maximum Cooling so it has the 28" radiator (P/N 3673028) in it. I want to replace it with a new radiator but so far, I haven't found a direct fit replacement. I am thinking to just go with an aluminum 26" model, but I am wondering what changes between...

    Purge/bleed power steering system

    I put a new power steering gear, pump and lines on my ‘73 Road Runner. I added fluid and started the engine then shut it off to check the fluid level. I added some and I guess put too much in. Then I started the engine and did the turn it lock to lock to try and purge the air out. I turned...

    Ignition wiring help with HEI

    I have a crate 408" magnum stroker from BluePrint. The car is a 1973 Road Runner. The engine came with an external coil HEI style ignition. Knowing I would not need the ballast resistor or the electronic ignition box I decided to make a new wiring harness and not cut up the factory one...

    Factory Power Steering Cooler Code

    My '73 Road Runner has what appears to be a factory power steering cooler. Its mounted directly to the back of a Federal style pump. Is there a code on the build sheet that would have driven this?

    Wiring diagram circuits decoder?

    Looking at the factory 1973 Service Manual wiring diagrams and I have some questions that I can’t figure out or want to be sure on. Say for instance I’m looking at the engine compartment diagram and I see the G2-20V wire from the bulkhead cavity 21 to the temperature sending unit. In the...

    Engine Lift Plates?

    Ok, I’ve never used one of the engine lift plates that mounts to the top of the intake where the carb sits. I’ve always done a chain across the heads but that carb plate sure looks like it would be easier to position the engine coming out or back in. Are they really safe to use with an...

    Doug’s Headers application frustration

    Does anybody know the part number for a set of Doug’s Headers to fit a 1973 Road Runner with a small block, 4 speed, power steering if it makes a difference? I’ve tried to figure it out in their website, Summit’s website and even called Doug’s and gotten no where. Summit shows D453 to fit...

    1973 Road Runner U-bolt size?

    I need to order some replacement u-bolts for my rear suspension. I haven’t pulled one off to measure as I was hoping I could easily find some but it seems the 1973 rear suspension with the isolator pads around the springs freaks people out. I know they are 1/2”diameter and 3-1/8” on the...

    For sale is a Hurst Competition Plus 4 speed shifter (p/n 3916789) and an installation kit (p/n 3734089). Purchased in the fall last year, mocked up on a trans but never installed in the car. It isn’t new, but it’s in unused excellent condition. I think I had to remove a little from a...

    ‘73 RR 3 spd manual to 4 spd are you sure?

    I have a 73 Road Runner 318 with a 3 speed manual transmission. I rebuilt an A833 OD trans and have the correct bellhousing and a new Hurst shifter setup. I started the swap today and I’m hoping it’s all going to fit. The shifter on the 3 speed seems to sit aft and up from the trans mount...

    Rear shocks - how much ride height is effected?

    I have a ‘73 RR with stock rear suspension. I was curious to see how much the shocks change the ride height of the body so I measured ground to the same point on both sides with and without the shocks attached to axle mounts. When I took them off the body dropped about 1/2” on both sides...

    ‘73 Road Runner rear bumper brackets?

    I’m guessing the rear bumper brackets are the same for 1973 and 1974 Plymouth Road Runners and Satellites? Are they interchangeable with same year Chargers? Anyone have a set for a ‘73 RR they would let go of? I’m not in the “need a set” mode but I’d like to have them in case my “tuck it in”...
