The "Hodge Podge" 340 I purchased in Sacramento some years ago now has new rings and bearings and is ready to drop into the engine bay of our '72 Satellite Sebring Plus: see photo #1 (once a hodge podge always a hodge podge which explains the "paint scheme" which is all over the map). Anyone...

Found on our 1972 Satellite Sebring Plus 318 Auto: was this installed on the positive or negative terminal of the ignition coil? Thank you.

The 318 is all loose and ready to remove. My only question now is whether to pull it jacked up like it is (so I could disconnect the torque convertor) or bring it back down on it's tires again? I realize either option will require me to find some way or other to support the automatic...

I just read a post on Facebook that stated "Leather or fabric upholstery options". My parents purchased a special order 71 Road Runner when I was sixteen years old. I don't remember a leather interior being on the option sheet. Did I miss that available fabric choice back then?

My parents new 1971 383 automatic shifted into second and third at exactly 4,500 RPM at full throttle. At the drag strip I would manually shift at 5,500 rpm. But my question today is: At what engine speed does the factory 904 in the '71-'74 BBody 318 shfit at full throttle? Thank you.

Might use the 340 performance exhaust manifolds when I replace the factory 318 with the 340 I am building for our '72 Satellite Sebring Plus. Anyone with experience doing so before me that can give me a heads up on whether to use a 90 degree oil filter adaptor as well? Thank you.

I can't remember for sure the appearance/style of the "383" decal on my parent's new '71 Road Runner 383 bahama yellow with air grabber hood. I thought it was some kind of reflective material and don't even remember if it was a dark color or a light color. Anyone know the correct application...

According to my photo many years ago, I removed the hood on the '72 Satellite the last time I pulled the 318 motor. This next time I would like to make an attempt to leave the hood in place. Is this idea feasible? Who has tried it before? Thank you.

I have never seen this bumper rubber strip protector in person:

I tried this before and failed (I was trying to bolt it directly to the radiator support). According to some recent photos I found, it is attached to something else, but I can't determine exactly how and where. And with a shroud, power steering, and that battery tray looks near impossible...

Re: 1972 Satellite Sebring Plus. I sent off my instruments to have the ammeter gauge converted to voltmeter (and general gauge restoration). Now I find the speedometer is nice and steady but reads too fast. The odometer evidently is right on the money, so changing the speedo pinion gear won't...

Besides looking cool (to some of us) and making it more difficult to clean the glass, what purpose/advantage do the louvers serve? Thank you.

And what style cooling fan comes stock on a non-a/c '71 383 Road Runner? Thank you.

No rallye dash (see speedo) and it has the 400 CID engine. Just wondering if it really was a stock powerplant? Thank you.

The guy in this '72 Satellite video states the rear windows don't roll down. Is he correct? Thank you.

Getting ready for the local car show here tomorrow.

Just wondering how one could equip a Satellite similar to a Road Runner by placing an order with a dealer and adding optional equipment. Thank you.

My parents purchased a Bahama Yellow 1971 Road Runner with the black strobe stripes. In 1972 they changed 'em. I can't explain why, but I always cringe at the '72 change and prefer the '71. And it bugs me somewhat because they are so similar. Anyone else share or does not share my preference?

Glad he kept it looking "stock":

I have read that the drip rail chrome is different on vinyl roof BBodies '71 to '74 (I have a '72) than vehicles with a painted roof. I guess I'm kind of a "doubting Thomas" (hard for me to picture factory making up two different sets). Has anyone ever measured them out to find out if there...
