    Fan and shroud on 5.9 magnum with serpentine setup

    By ScampNYC

    Hi, I have a 5.9 magnum in my 71 scamp. I decided to use the serpentine set up. I figured out that you have to use a fan off a Jeep Cherokee as it’s a smaller diameter and won’t fit any of the factory shrouds. The ram truck fan is too large. Right now I’m trying to figure out a shroud. I have two shrouds that’ll work. The thing is with the fan and clutch that I have on the fan is about 2 inches from the radiator core. I can use my deeper shroud, and this will perfectly put the fan half in... Read more

    Mickey had a journey

    By Kern Dog

    I’m parting out this beat up DusTurd… I got the slant six and 904 out today and was stripping down the engine. I pulled the intake off, the exhaust was still laying there. I saw this… It looks like Mickey came in through the tailpipe, went through the muffler, up the exhaust pipe, into the manifold and got stuck when trying to get over the heat riser. I’ve found dead rats on top of glove box... Read more

    Electric Fans - Not Cool

    By matthon

    383 dual quad efi tunnel ram, A833OD 4 speed, 3.23 Sure-Grip. Background For years, ran an original a-body bb radiator with the Hayden clutch and Delray 18" fan, NO shroud. Northeast, car never strayed far from 180 in all weather and driving conditions. I switched to timing control, then 160. Note: my understanding was the engine builder put in a 180 thermostat, when I later swapped to electric fans I discovered in fact it was a 160. 2025 Power Tour line of traffic, 90+ out, car got up...

    Single most expensive item on your car?

    By dmopar74

    Dear Lord headers these days are pricey! Just spent 1k for some stainless Doug's, but it is what it is. I like to buy cheap and rebuild items, it's fun and the experience is gratifying, not always the cheapest way but I enjoy it. Could I have built headers myself for a street car, nope! So what's your most expensive piece? Not an engine, but a part of the engine etc. I'm sure some of you racers have 3k converters, while my poverty *** has a $150 stock spec rebuilt unit lol.

    Hey everyone. I am going to start working on my 74 dart and putting in a 5.7 hemi and debating on what transmission to use. I have the original Nag1 that came with it. If I go this route what harness is everyone using to work with engine/trans? Ready to start getting parts for this build! Any help appreciated! Thanks everyone

    accessory bolt holes question - depths

    By Supercar

    My 72 Swinger currently has a 400 Big Block in it. Previously the pulley/bracket/belt setup had been a mix and match nightmare, I've since sorted that out and now I need to use the top bolt hole on the passenger side head for an alternator mounting bolt. They are stock cast iron heads and there are 3 holes on the passenger side, all of them 3/8"-16 but the one I need to use doesn't allow the bolt to go in as far as the others. Does anyone know if this is normal? I will try to get a... Read more

    Header to trans. line and shifter cable clearance

    By 69GT

    I put a big block with a 727 in my 69 Dart. I also installed a set of full length TTI headers. While neither of the trans. lines are touching the header tubes, there is only about 1/2" of gap at the closest spot. Do you think this will be an issue with heating the trans. fluid? I've done some searching on this topic online with mixed results. Some say that as long as the lines aren't touching there won't be a problem while others say there will be and the lines should be wrapped with... Read more

    Gauge Malfunction?

    By Chuter

    Saturday we spent the day with the 65 Barracuda out in the sun at a show. We drove a few blocks to a restaurant, then on the way home, I noticed the temperature gauge was at the maximum. I also noticed that the fuel gauge read 3/4 full (it was a bit under half a tank in the morning, and I didn't stop for fuel). The temp gauge came down a bit, then spiked again on a long hill, and stayed pretty close to maximum all the way home (10 miles or so). I turned the heater on to provide a little... Read more

    Restarting my French Plymouth Duster 318/904

    By FredP

    Hi folks, this thread to share the WIP on my 70 Duster with it's 318/904 combo. As I said in my presentation, my goal is to have the car running "as is" for the next 4 years or so, and then to restore it from ground (once I retire). This is why I'm not calling this a restoration, but more likely a restarting process. This car was sold to a French guy 6 years ago, it was imported from Oregon state. At that time, paint was shiny (it allways will on pictures!), and so was the... Read more
