This is a scary topic since seeing so many failures. I have an comp cam extreme energy EX 274 with flat tappet purchased 20 years ago and still working great. I wouldn't change it for anything new, unless it was new old stock.
Good luck!
Just reading all the comments, everyone of them may be right, write a list and check it all, also check the flex plate bolts to make sure something is not coming loose, very common if no lockite on the bolts. It wouldn't hurt to do a band adjustment on the transmission also. Great videos on...
On a final note, make sure your ring gear is the same thickness as the original or u will have to get the center pin machined so axles will fit with c clips. In addition if u buy new should have a diagram showing how much to machine off, very important for machine shop. If it's a thicker ring...
I have the same exact car n year, yes you can upgrade to a limited slip and upgrade to a 3.55. I have done it, but stepped up to a 4.30 gear set with limited slip. I run a 400 hp 340 and use it for drag racing and have not ever had a failure. In addition I did all the work myself, only thing is...
Everyone may be correct, but also your transmission may of been damaged from handling before installing, with a hairline Crack and might of just let go finally.
It has happened to me, I replaced the tail housing in car 10 years ago and still working great.
Dave6T4 is absolutely correct, I also bought a tank and sender From Rock Auto, for around the same price, money well spent. In addition I have repaired the original tank using an Eastwood kit to reseal the inside of tank just for a backup now.
Nice car, I own a 73 rr and love it since I bought mine in 1981 and still own it to this very day. Another plus with the 73/74 B body's is the insulated mounts on the k frame, these cars drive better, my buddy has a 71 and made that comment to me after driving mine. Also for the record, I do...
Make it a "Ratty Satty" and have fun with it, get it sea worthy. Who knows once you get it running and driving you may or may not take the next step, if not it will make it easier to sell, since it would be a running and driving car.
I guess you can't take it when you don't know, go to even rockauto and check for yourself, they look the same but are not. Happy New Year to you and your family all the best for 2024.
I bought those same ball joints and had no issues at all. The only thing that might be wrong is they could be lower ball joint, which are threaded into lower control arm. They could of packaged them wrong as upper part #

I enjoy watching YouTube: here's my list. Jamie on Dead Dodge Garage, Uncle Tony, Nick' Garage, Mopar Joe, Scott's Speed shop and more of a Chevy guy Dan on DD Speed Shop, puts out a ton of content that applies to all makes. Finally Dennis Collins, Coffee Walk. Everyone of them are car people!
I have a 73, and my proportioning valve is mounted on the firewall in the engine bay, in addition that's a later master cylinder used on late 70's and 80's mopars. All so make sure you have the right master cylinder, they are different for manual and power brakes. Someone did changes that may...
