What month does L stand for. Googling I found references for it to stand for Oct and Dec. However, I think it stands for Nov. Who’s right? The entire date code is L89 - Nov 8, 1969 ( I think)?

Looks like PO probably glued the crap out of my Hemi valve covers just like he did with the oil pan. I had to drive a scraper 3/4 of the way around the oil pan before it finally turned loose. Add to that, that I have a plug tube that I can’t seem to dislodge. It appears to be stuck in the...

Probably most people have read the story about the early dyno testing of the 426 Hemi and how initial testing was disappointing and didn’t show any advantage over the Max Wedge motors. Then, based on some race development of the Gen1 Hemi I think I remember, they decided to crank a bunch of...

I stumbled on to this test of several gas brands and actual ethanol content and showing lowest contents seem to be Exxon-Mobil and Shell. Only problem is I don’t see a date on the study in skimming over it although there was a 2017 footnote close to the end. But, kind of interesting to look...

So - I knew this 66 Satellite had been mostly media blasted to a bare shell when restored years ago. I’ve found small amounts of sand going through the car last year, rewiring it and many other things. However, until I opened up the floor vents and hit about 70 yesterday I didn't realize he...

Some one may have stumbled on this before for tightening up a non-critical bolt or screw that the hole for it is worn out. On one of those hex head screws that Mopar was so fond of using under-hood to hang stuff off the firewall and fenders, I wrapped the threaded shank with dental floss and it...

The turn signal switch in my Satellite has very soft detent action between positions - almost none. Self canceling does work. I noticed the switch and the canceling cam are available separately. Does it sound like I need the whole works or maybe just a new cancelling cam?

Bought a pint of this stuff to paint a few brackets, braces, etc since it’s rare to get a day warm enough to rattle can them right now and I’m trying to not do too much painting in the garage. I’ve used a little POR 15 over the years and while not a lot, it usually flowed out smooth, glossy and...

I’m not sure what the heck some previous owner did with my 66 Satellite but I had about a half dozen of those 1” holes in the bottom of the frame rails apparently used for trailer tie downs that were distorted - some pretty severely - both front and rear. At first I thought maybe it was damage...

I know of the duplicate port connection behind the intake, next to the idiot light sender mount. That’s where I installed the oil tube for the oil pressure auxiliary gage on my 67 GTX. Now I’m installing one on my 66 Hemi Satellite and as difficult as that area was to work in on my factory air...

He went on a road trip with a HS buddy of his who is a shop owner, mechanic and sometimes racer to a nearby car show. He drove his Hemi and his friend took his 67 427 Chevelle which is pretty well built with aluminum heads, headers, 4 bolt block, good sized solid lifter cam and a tremec...

Need to replace the lock cylinder in the ignition and have done this on a GM many years ago but not sure on a Mopar. I think GM had a pin hole a wire was inserted in. On a Mopar, probably insert key, turn to accessory (?) and the what? Searched internet and forum without luck but just dawned...

Ordered a correct, press molded insulation pad and started to install it but realized I failed to order a clip set. But I did have a few spare clips from my 67 GTX so I thought I could get it at least stuck under there and out of the way in a safe place while ordering some new clips. This one...

Title should have said Mr. Moparts. Damn Ipad. Anyone who has ordered from Mr Moparts - do they normally tell you when something is on back order/out of stock? Ordered a couple items on 4 July and all I’ve been able to learn from the website is that the order is awaiting shipping (10 days)...
