  Could this screw up my electrical system?

  By cruiser

  I have a bone stock 1974 slant six Duster. It has the standard 34 amp alternator. All wiring is stock and original. I'm thinking of replacing my standard #6014 headlamps with halogen headlamps. My concern is the amp draw. Do halogen lamps use more power than the stock incandescent ones that I have now? I don't want to start a fire somewhere just to get more light at night. Or do incandescent and halogen use the same amount of power? Whaddya think? Thanks - cruiser

  240 na exhaust

  By Marvelous3

  Does anyone make a “bolt on” exhaust from the na header pipe back that’s 2.5”? May add a turbo later so if there’s already a 2.5” exhaust there it’s something I don’t have to go back and add later.

  OEM knock sensors vs aftermarket

  By supafriz

  Pulled a P0330 code today on my 2000 LX. Zero power loss, fuel consumption normal, ecu still allows highway speeds and overdrive, so no symptoms other than the code. Cleared code and came back within 2” of driving, so now I’m traveling down the knock sensor rabbit hole. Planning on pulling intake this weekend and simply replacing both plus the intermediate wiring harness. From quick reading I see OEM, as usual, is uniformly considered the option of choice vs aftermarket due to headache... Read more

  Advice removing rear bump stop rear bolts

  By Ignignot

  I am having to replace my rear bump stops. Car is up on ramps and the wheels are on so the suspension is loaded. I was able to get the impact gun on the front bolts with a 12" extension but i cant get a good purchase on the rear bolts even with a wobble bit. Any advice on technique or special tools for getting the rear bolts out? Maybe its easier if i jack up the frame but leave the axle hanging? Maybe i can just set the rear air springs to the "High" setting?

  Waldron's exhaust...I just ordered a complete new stock system from them, Any praise or complaints?

  By 1965belvedere2

  I just ordered a complete new stock exhaust from them because the monkeys who work at my local muffler shops are so dumb they would climb over a glass wall to see what was on the other side... Anyone have any experience of ordering or what they received from Waldron's? Praise? Criticism? FYI I ordered a complete single exhaust from the manifolds to the bumper

  Alternator replacement questions

  By Tamnative3

  I had my alternator tested and it was bad so I go a rebuilt one installed it and when I checked it with a multimeter it showed only 12.4 volts with the truck running at about 2500 rpm. I figured that I got a bad one and took it back for a replacement and asked them To check it before I took it. He checked it while I was there and it passed so I took it home and installed it, same issue 12.4 volts. Now I checked all the wires from the alt. to the regulator plug and all were fine, I also...
