    Difference between a Sure Grip and a Dana Power-Lok

    I have heard conflicting opinions on the re-buildability of the CONE differentials. For the most part, the ones that are against it are Rick Ehrenberg and people repeating the opinion of Rick Ehrenberg. I like the guy's work and trust most of what he has written but this is one of the few things...

    Mating a 904 transmission to a 360

    I don't think that this is right. The LA series engines used the same flex plate for the 318 as the 360 from everything that I have seen and dealt with, The balance factor is done either internally or through the harmonic balancer and a weight added to the converter. I don't see how that affects...

    Yeah, but 87 to 13 isn't a 2 to 1 comparison. By that argument, the numbers would be closer to 66/34.

    PST 1.03 torsion bars

    There is a guy that used to post at Moparts from Illinois...."Mopar Mitch". Smart guy, he loved to race his Challenger. He was a big proponent of big torsion bars and ran a 1.22 size in his car.

    If this is true, it is interesting..... "87% of the world lives in the northern hemisphere, and only 13% of the world lives in the southern hemisphere."

    Post up facts and things that hardly anyone knows...... (for entertainment purposes only. NO need to fact check)

    It has been said that had they hit it dead straight, they may have only breached 1 or 2 compartments and stayed afloat. As it happened, turning and grazing the edge of the iceberg caused several compartments to be compromised.

    Can anyone identify this?

    I did the same sort of thing to Jigsaw..... I took the time to patch in a non A/C section by welding, using body filler and seam sealer.

    I hate getting rid of trees. I love the shade and the look of a yard with many trees.

    Ballpark estimate for the cost to do a 5.7 Hemi swap in a '70 Charger

    I had this same spec cam in my first 440 in the red car. It would spin the peg leg single tire all the way to where I got tired of peeling out and just let off the gas and let the tire hook up. With a 3.91 SG in it, it ran a 14.01 at 101 with a crappy 2.40 60 ft time. Zero traction but once it...

    Ballpark estimate for the cost to do a 5.7 Hemi swap in a '70 Charger

    Once I'm up to speed, it picks up nicely. It was first put on the road with a 3.23 and ugh...it felt way too slow. I have a 3.91 in it now and while it is better, it still lacks the snap of the Dart or other Charger. I have another factory "Hi-Stall" that I got some time ago. I had it gone...

    Ballpark estimate for the cost to do a 5.7 Hemi swap in a '70 Charger

    No, it is an 11” that was built by Lenny at UCC for approximately 2800 stall but that was behind the 440/493. I used the trans and converter from the red car when I swapped a 5 speed in it. Maybe it does stall too low for a 383. Good point.

    Ballpark estimate for the cost to do a 5.7 Hemi swap in a '70 Charger

    I was unaware of the costs to do a 3G Hemi swap until a few days ago. It was like the guy that looks outside, sees that it is sunny and steps out for a moment not knowing how damned hot it is.....then turns around and goes back inside.

    Lookie what $5000 buys you....

    I look at how much I got done on the other car in the same time frame. Engine/trans/axle/brake swaps, body and paint, interior..... But back then it was my only car to focus on. I was working though so time was limited to nights and weekends.
