It's called "FatMat" I got it on Amazon. Comes in different lengths I'm planning to use it on the floor as well as the doors. I got 75 sq ft of the stuff and still have probably more than half left after just doing the doors. Not sure if I'll need more than what I have to do the floor or not...

Great video! Thanks for sharing.

Yeaaaaaahhhhh that sounds like it would have made things a lot easier. Also, the comment about "having the correct tools" was a key factor. Still replacing things after I had about $1000 worth of tools stolen - including universal joints for ratchets. They are on a really weird angle, though...

Update The dash is out... finally... Whoever the engineer was who decided it was a good idea to put those 1/4 inch hex screws right up against the windshield on that stupid angle is guaranteed a special placed in hell, I swear... I also didn't realize how much of a PITA it was going to be to...

I'm in the market for a "like new" or reasonably solid heater box for a 1973 Charger SE with factory A/C. My box is completely destroyed, and was home to quite a few mice! Completely beyond repair in my opinion, though I still have all the pieces, disassembled. (Pics of mine below) Doesn't...

Thank you very much! Gotta get it out of the way for the floor pan. There's also a hole in the cowl where the air inlet was that I need to patch.

Does anyone have the schematic or step-by-step instructions for completely removing the dashboard from a 73 Charger? I have the heater box, heat & a/c controller, and glove box out already, but the steering column is still connected for now. I can't figure out where the bolts are that connect...

Admittedly, the voodoo magic that is EGR is not something I understand. My car has it from factory, and supposedly it helps with fuel economy, but it seems like a hassle to maintain and needless added complexity to choke out the performance. I've been considering moving to a 4-Barrel carb...

So I did list the tests I did in my last post. The only gauge that doesn't seem to be working is the fuel gauge. The issue seems to primarily be bad wires/open circuits. Both the oil pressure and temp gauges will move, and the oil pressure is actually working now. The fuel gauge will not budge...

Thanks, guys. I did wind up just slipping the clip thing over the top and the gauge works. Seems like a really shoddy way to wire it, to be completely honest. There's no safety mechanism to keep it from sliding or vibrating off and grounding out. Pure genius. Either way, it works now, so that's...

==Another Update== After fiddling around some more and doing more troubleshooting, I've figured out that the gauges are functional, and the issue is most likely open circuits/broken wires. I started Another Thread regarding the oil pressure sending unit. I did get it working after posting that...

It's the 318cid small block. The sending unit is right behind the distributor near the firewall. The wiring schematic I have for the car says the wire is supposed to grey (at least to the bulkhead). I'd say the wire is "grey-adjacent" since all of the wires are faded and dirty, making it hard to...

I'm look for some help on troubleshooting an issue I am having with my oil pressure gauge. I have a related thread which might tie in with this thread which you can find HERE. Right now, I am not sure if the gauge is even wired at all, and if it isn't, how it is supposed to be wired. This is...

Update: I got the new limiter installed today, but it didn't solve the problem. Still the gauges refuse to work, and I am not getting a clean output. I can see on the limiter that the red LED on it is blinking on and off. If I put my DMM on it, I see the voltage bounce around between 0 and ~2V...

Thanks, moparmarks! I went ahead and ordered one from the site you linked. I'll update this thread once I get it installed.

I have reasons to suspect that the 6V voltage regulator in my '73 Charger is bad. The symptoms being: A) No responsiveness from Oil Pressure, Fuel Level, or Temperature gauges. B) DC Voltmeter measures never sees 12V, and always less than 6V on average while measuring output. Here is a picture...

Here's another look at the coil. It has two wires coming in and one going out. If I understand this properly, the green is the negative and the brown is the positive. Also apparently I was wrong and there is a part number on the distributor, but I still don't see a manufacturer name

I've never heard the term "ignition box" before, so I'm not sure what that is. Can you explain what it is or does so I can try to find it? I don't see any part numbers or markings on the distributor itself. Not without taking it off, that is. There could possibly be something on the back side...

I wouldn't be surprised with the emissions controls all over this car that there would be changes made to the distributor, but not including vacuum advance seems like it would be counter-active to that. There aren't any modules connected directly to the distributor, although I think I'm...

I was at the Mopar Nationals in Carlisle recently and had some opportunities to talk to other Charger owners, particularly some mid 70's owners with 318's like mine. One interesting and disturbing revelation is that somehow, throughout its life, my car seems to have had its distributor swapped...
