Hi, Steve! I don't know if you remedied this or not. When I owned that car, I knew for a fact the rear springs had sagged, badly. I'd recommend re-arching them or replacing them. As it was only a 318 car from the factory, it doesn't have the heavier springs like the 440, Hemi or Track Pak cars...
Just on a hunch... and it's only a hunch.... Check your firing order on the spark plug wires. I had a car do this and #5 and #7 were crossed up. Shook the bejeezus out of the car.
These are a great addition to your toolbox. No need for timing tape or "guessing" where the 35° mark should be.

You didn't say whether or not you had the exhaust crossover blocked off under the intake. Mine is blocked off and I had to compensate by increasing the primary jet sizes to accommodate.
Yes, I do run with my vacuum advance disconnected and I removed the heavy mechanical advance spring and...
dvw, I'm not doubting your experience, and I am always open to learning new things. I'd like to discuss this a bit more in depth (my mind keeps telling me the angles are going to be affected, but I'd like my eyes & ears to prove it wrong).
If you move the steering box (along the same plane as...
The problem you will run into when moving the steering box is that it will no longer drive the drag link from the proper angle. Keep in mind, the pitman arm and the idler arm work in unison as the drag link moves from side to side. If you alter one of the pivot points (steering box with pitman...
Just as an FYI, Total time from the engine/trans on the floor to the headers installed on my Road Runner was an hour and a half. That included shifter, clutch linkage, driveshaft, starter and headers. I have yet to install radiator, hoses etc.
Granted, I'd done it a few times before and had all...
67 Mopar, I like what you did there. That's a pretty slick deal.... but what if you want to move the car while the engine is out? Say you wanna take it to the car wash and blast the everliving dog snot out of the engine bay. I've found it's easier to move them around if they still have the front...
The problem you are going to have replacing a Carter BBD is the fact that there are very few carbs that will bolt to that manifold. A typical Holley or OE Stromberg will not fit that little mounting pattern. The carbs that DO fit it will not afford you enough performance increase to make the...

I just ordered and installed this same tank back in June. Fit perfectly and shipped via UPS with no issues.
Edit: don't lose...
I'm thinking that until that engine loses it's stock exhaust manifolds, you won't see much improvement with another intake manifold. The stock 335hp setup was very well balanced between the intake and exhaust and cam and simply swapping an intake probably won't gain much over the factory offering.
