It's finally moving under its own power. I dropped it down off the jack stands and sat it on all 4's for the first time in 2 years.
from sitting in a barn for nearly 50 years to back on the road (almost). Due to running long tube headers, I can't use the factory oil dipstick or trans dipstick...
Hopefully, someone out there has a secret stash of just one of the round air filters for the chrome dome air cleaner.
Even a K&N E1920 will work
Thanks for any help.

I got the engine and transmission installed today. It went about as well as could be expected for just a one-man show.
A few scratches and forgot to remove the battery tray and bent it. I spent 2 hours trying to get the engine to drop down in place and it would line up on one side but not the...
I'm almost ready to put the engine back in the 1966 Coronet and need a Prestolite dual points Distributor # 2642482 IBS-400 6P
I thought I had one bought but after sending the money via PayPal he all of the sudden backs out on me and refunds the $$.
I was hoping that stuff like that wouldn't...
It's been a long year of gathering parts and waiting but I just about have everything together.
It's not perfect and it's not 100% correct but I'm working on it.
Still need to find manifolds and correct distributor.
I'm looking for a set of manifolds for the 426 hemi but until then I will have to go with the headers that I have.
I want them to look better than they currently do and I don't think the high temp paint really works too well.
Has anyone on the forum ever used Cerakote to coat their headers?
I'm...
Does anyone know where I can get these stickers?
I need some for my engine build but I refuse to pay $140 for the reproduction fuel filters at Year One.
I can buy the filters for less than $4.00 each without anything on them. I just need the blue stickers to make them look the part.
Does anyone...
I would sell but hoping to find someone willing to trade.
The parts I need. Complete set of Hemi manifolds
Hemi Prestolite dual points cast iron distributor #264 2482 IBS-400 6P
The parts I have to trade or sell.
A nearly complete 413 Long Ram setup with original matched Carter #2903s...
About 2 months ago I caught a bug and was sick for about 3 days. Fever, body aches, cough, and runny nose with congestion.
It was not the vid flu, I think it was just a bug. A few days afterward, I noticed that I had a noticeable lump on my thyroid area.
It wasn't causing any pain or discomfort...
I was on eBay looking for a set of pushrods and came across an old Sun Tach that someone was asking $1500 for
I was thinking there was no way he'd ever sell a tach for that.
So I did an Advanced eBay search for Tachometers and saw these.
Almost $5,000 for a Tach? What am I missing? Out of...
Is it possible to replace trunk drop-down extensions without cutting the outer quarter panel?
My quarters are pretty solid and due to trying to keep the original paint is it possible to do just from the underside of the car?
Mine is a 1966 Coronet.
I would be fine with just blending in some...
I follow several Mopar channels on YT and have watched several videos on people building 383's, 440's, and 426 engines.
Some people when installing the timing chain put the dots in the 12/12 position and others use the 6/12 position but none of them show how they place the distributor or plug...
I've heard that on the early 426 Hemi, the intake bolts were hex head, and later they went to an Allen head type bolt.
Can anyone confirm this and if so when did they make this change?
Thanks, JKent
After nearly 2 years I hope to be getting my engine back next week and I'm looking for a few things to make it complete.
Any help locating will be very appreciated. If you don't have anything but have a source I can purchase them from is also very appreciated.
Need ASAP:
Prestolite Distributor...
Talked to Scott Smith at Harms yesterday about sending my carburetors to them for a complete restoration. Scott said that due to supply chain issues they are not accepting any new jobs until things improve and the current turnaround time is over a year out. Does anyone have a Carburetor kit #...
I don't know if this has ever been discussed but after finding out that the block in my 1966 Hemi is a factory warranty replacement block.
The thought crossed my mind. What did Dodge do with the damaged Hemi blocks when they were replaced under warranty?
And how bad does an engine have to be in...
I'm hoping to get some ideas on the best way to install a Hemi if you don't have a lift.
I know it is a very tight fit but can a 426 be dropped in from the top? With or without headers installed?
Has anyone that has done it got any suggestions? In case you don't know it's going in a 1966...
Dropped it off 10 months ago and got it back yesterday. The transmission was pretty rough inside and had several parts seized up and pitted. Pretty much everything inside the transmission had to be replaced. but they were able to save the case for me. I told them, I really wanted to keep the...
I was wondering if someone could help out. I ordered some paint from 8774paint1.com
I ordered 1/2 gallon of the Organisol SEM 61993 and painted the hood and scoop on my 1966 Coronet.
I mixed the paint exactly like I was told and the paint laid down and covered quite well but the texture is a...
After finishing off the interior, I started working on getting the K-Member and front suspension complete. All that is left is the Sway Bar and shocks. I'm waiting on the shocks to be delivered.
