    440 issue after swapping to aluminum heads, need advice

    That one there looks like it would be good for a return visit or 5...

    I can't believe it!

    Not a Mopar story, but...Hauling *** in my '72 Pinto when the hood latch gave out. Hood flew up, ripped both hinges off, and flew over the car. Landed in someone's front yard, and I just kept driving. Eventually got a ticket for no hood, but I had so many tickets back in those days, one more...

    Will 383 fit?

    Just did this exact 273/383 swap. It fits.

    Gen III Hemi tick - also a good explanation of HV vs HP oil pumps in general

    Long winded prick! Probably could have covered all that in 1/2 the time. Anyway, if there are cam lobe hardening issues, no oil pump on the planet will help, just prolong the inevitable. If you're smoking those lifters/lobes on a roller cam, best get them both out of there before you cause some...

    Drivers seat adjustment

    I'd trade the car for one of those! Two birds, one stone. I'd be happy for about 2 days, when I'd surely be wishing for the car back.

    Mini starter on 383?

    Yep, another stupid on my part. Didn't know that was an extension. Fixed. Thanks!

    Mini starter on 383?

    Trying to install a mini starter from a '94 Dakota in my '67 383. The bakelite insulator on the primary connection is hitting the block and won't allow the starter to sit square on the bellhousing. Anyone ever run into this issue, and if so, how did you fix it?

    Just bought mine from Manton. Great pushrods and quick turnaround.

    Saw this for sale on the way home tonight- not mine

    Was driving in traffic and I passed this in someone's front yard tonight. I couldn't turn around, but if anyone has a serious interest, I'll go back and get particulars. It's not far from my house. Nice looking car from what I could see.

    Fan Clutch Too Close to Radiator

    This was my first thought. I think it would work well.

    What is this part?

    You yoopers are OK! Good answer!

    TTI Headers and cam break in

    I did that same thing when I built my '57 Chevy. Turned the Hooker fenderwells orange before I figured out the exhaust valve rocker clearances were too tight.

    AXLE SEAL REMOVAL

    That is a cool tip with the pipe wrench. Fully adjustable, and if things get tough, you could attach a slide hammer.

    Rant: Auto parts store employees can really be useless sometimes

    I've been let down too many times by local parts stores. Case in point- had to buy a blower motor for a Jeep TJ last week. Autozone, Advance Auto, O'Reilly = $100-$130. Rock Auto = $28. Considering that the big box stores are gonna sell me the same Chinese **** anyway, I'll take the lower price...

    Abortion Alert!

    I'm not sure what THAT is, but that front louver looks like I could use it to scrape dog turds off my front lawn. Where can I get one?
