    727 Selector shaft lever removal

    69 Roadrunner 383. I'm trying to remove the valve body on my torque flite and I'm having a helluva time just getting the pinch clamps off the selector shaft levers. The plan was to replace the selector shaft seal. I've been reading posts, and people say how easy it is to get the valve body out...

    Which rotors?

    I bought the 10.95" Dr. Diff front disc conversion kit with drilled and slotted rotors a couple years ago for my 69 RR and am in need of new rotors. Is there a specific rotor/company/OEM part I should be looking for to replace the ones I have? Anyone know?

    Auto trans seems sluggish

    I have been driving my 69 RR 383/727 car for almost two years now and I feel like the trans might be loose or slipping. When I put it in drive or reverse it just kind of slides into gear, as opposed to a solid (I don't want to say clunk, but I will) clunk. I can rev the engine up and it takes a...

    Turning drilled/slotted rotors

    So I pulled my front rotors today because I had a pulsing in the pedal on a hard stop and I thought maybe they were warped. (I have drums on rear). I took them to an O'Reillys because they said they could turn them. I finally had to call them to find out the status and they said they couldn't...

    M/C pressure bleeding adapter cap

    I'm attempting to pressure bleed my brake system and wondering if there is an adapter cap for the 15/16" bore aluminum master cylinder that Dr. Diff sells. The caps that come on this unit don't seal very well. Any input?

    Need help with cancel cam install

    I put in a new cancel cam in my 69 Roadrunner and I have some issues. When I tried the switch this is what I got - when I switched it right, the left taillight flashed. When I switched it to the center, both lights flashed. And when I switched it left, neither light came on. And at no time did...

    WTB 69 Roadrunner lower back window chrome trim

    Looking for just the lower trim piece. Not the rear side window, the back window. I'd rather not buy the whole trim set and have to find a buyer for the rest of it, or have to throw some of it away.

    R & R master cylinder push rod

    I'm replacing my oem brake push rod on my 69 RR with an adjustable one and want to know if I need to remove the master cylinder to replace it. Or can I do it from under dash without removal. I'm trying to avoid bleeding my brakes again since I feel like I've bled them about 10 times since I put...

    Lucas Oil stop leak

    I put Lucas Oil power steering stop leak, transmission stop leak and crankcase stop leak in my car last weekend and was just wondering if anyone knew if these additives were all the same. They look the same. They are all red and they're all as thick as STP oil additive. Maybe thicker. Any ideas?

    Distributor advance springs

    Back when I was a kid and had a 69 383 RR one of the performance "tricks" we did was to remove one of the advance weight springs down inside the distributor. This would let the distributor reach full advance a lot earlier. I don't remember if it was the light spring or the heavy spring that we...

    383 exhaust size

    I have a 69 Roadrunner with a stock 383. What is the actual size of the exhaust down pipes? I have searched but can't find a number. My mufflers are blown out and leaking so I'm planning on going to 2 1/2" front to back this summer.

    Brake push rod length

    So I put a Dr. Diff disc conversion on my 69 Roadrunner along with a new master cylinder. The push rod is too short so the pedal is low. I'm going to put in an adjustable push rod in and I'm wondering what length it should be before I put it in. Or do I just guess and take it out and put it back...

    Route 66

    Has anyone taken a trip on Route 66? Either a small part or the whole thing? Thinking about doing it sometime but wondered about what kind of tools to take. And no matter what spare parts I take, they won't be the ones that break. BTW, I'll be driving my 69 Roadrunner, 383/727 auto. Any...

    Missing nut and manifold leak

    More issues with my semi-newly acquired 69 Roadrunner, 383 auto. I recently started hearing a ticking coming from drivers side rear exhaust manifold when cold. Looked around and noticed a nut missing from the stud on rear exhaust manifold port. It looks like the stud has been exposed for some...

    Car died at traffic light!

    I took the wife for a cruise this afternoon on probably one of the last nice days of the year. We had gone about 20 minutes and were sitting at a red light in traffic and out of nowhere the engine died abruptly. No slow idling down and quitting, just dead. I put it in park and hit the key and it...

    Any of you Iowa guys going to the Cruise to the Woods this Sunday, Oct. 4th? I have a couple friends going and I'm kinda on the fence about it. Just found out about it today. https://www.wccruisers.com/

    Brake light switch adjustment

    All right, here it goes. I've tried searching and can't find an answer to this question. I put new brakes on my 69 Roadrunner and after I did the pedal doesn't return all the way and the brake lights are occasionally staying on. It's the brake light switch and I'd love to adjust it but I can't...

    Distribution block r&r

    I am putting a Dr.Diff disc conversion kit on my 69 Roadrunner and I'm at the point where the distribution block can be installed. Do I remove the lines from the block first and then remove the block from the frame? Or vicey versey? Also, do you access the d-block from the top or the bottom...

    Should I change over to self adjusters?

    Just spent the morning struggling to change the rear brake shoes and get the rear brake adjuster stop spring installed on my 69 RR. (It's got non self adjusting brakes) I was just ready to pitch the extra parts in the parts bag when I saw it had all the parts needed to convert over to self...

    RR w/11" drums and 7/16" studs

    Hey all. New member and first post. Just bought a 69 Roadrunner, a driving project. I put DrDiff discs on the front and found out that my original wheel studs were 7/16x20 in 11" drums. The DrDiff studs are 1/2" so no big deal for the front but how will I get 1/2" studs into the rear axles? From...
