    68 coronet project

    If the fuse box has a cover, I'd mount it under the battery tray. Orientate it so you can feel the fuses and pull each out to inspect when needed. There is the tar/fabric style wire covering available online and, in my area, CarQuest, that you can run wires through to keep it looking somewhat...

    69 Charger Brake Suggestions?

    As @Kern Dog said above. I personally like the "feel" of manual brakes. You can get a cast iron 15/16" one for a '74-'75 A body. Also leaves more room and less clutter in engine bay. From Cass/Dr Diff on the master cylinder.

    Another rim and tire ??

    15" all day, or larger w the correct aspect ratio. 14's are getting harder to find and to get the right diameter on a 14" requires a skinny 78 series or a "Very" wide 50 series. Use this to figure out aspect ratio/diameter to rpm speed. Speed/Tire/RPM calculator

    Are general mayhem clones cool or stupid?

    Mayhem looks Kool, but it is "Their" car n creation, their idea. If that's the style you like, follow the concept, but don't copy.

    Question: Is a build sheet always to be found under the rear seat?

    They were "supposed" to be put there. Those were the instructions they were given at the plant. Were mistakes made, yes. So were the "always" put there, no.

    What is the best fan space?

    However, distance from the radiator is not as critical as shroud being sealed and fan being partially in and partially out of the shroud.

    Door molding retainers for ends of doors

    Ya, it probably wouldn't work for the back door clips on mine either, but they work great on the front.

    Door molding retainers for ends of doors

    The front of my door molding popped off in the car wash. I didn't want it to happen again or at highway speeds so I got the Z style for the front of the door moldings. Mine is a '67 Coronet. They work perfect. Glad they had what you needed. 1st pic is the factory clip.

    Door molding retainers for ends of doors

    Give R/T Specialties a call. They may not have the exact one but may have the z style one that will fit and work. (570) 388-1082

    Beautiful B-body roadrunner no identification

    Call your local DMV and find out what they require. Each state is different. They will usually have a form with a list of requirements for different scenarios. But 1st step is check there.

    If you're going to drive your car much, especially on the highway, get tubular upper control arms w improved caster n camber. The steering isn't as twitchy at higher speeds that way.

    Eddelbrock RPM

    Ya, kinda figured that's what I'd have to do. I've already got a garage full of wall art. Radiators, fans, etc that wouldn't fit n they wont take back. I guess I may end up adding an air cleaner to the art collection.

    Eddelbrock RPM

    I know this is a little over a month old, got a '67 Coronet w 496 stroked 383, Edelbrock RPM with Fitech FI. Do you think hunt2elk's setup will work on this?

    383 getting stroked, head question....

    It is based on the 451 build in the article. But 496, the equivalent roller cam to their hydraulic flat tappet, and fuel injection. Theirs was over 500 lb/ft from 3k rpm. This 45 c.i. bigger and will idle at 800 rpm. Should be high 600 tq and be a kick to just put around in. Hopefully my...
