If money is the driving factor then don't do a G3 because it will get expensive. Sure you can keep the costs down but to do this you will be making compromises that you probably won't be happy with. I still have not fired up my 71 Charger (although this is mainly because I have been...

Not to sound like a dick but you need to start bending something to clear but it wont be the T bar.

The spring thing is not a Mopar option I do not believe, I have never seen one before in over 50 yrs of messing with these cars (but I never say never). The lights getting brighter is a normal thing for this era of car, it can be (read should be) corrected by installing relays in the wiring...

Then the socket crimp has become loose. You can remove the housing and use a punch to try and tighten up the crimp to get a better ground which will work for awhile. I prefer to solder a wire to the socket (easy to do) and then run that wire to a body fastener/screw. This will ensure a good...

Like any ground they need to be clean, in this case it is the mounting screws for the housing to the valance.

I don't know about 72's but it was an optional wheel for 71s with tilt and column shift. Also was available on C bodies (I have one of each).

I think I posted it here but I am using the Holley single plane intake and at least right now I am using the Mopar DBW TB that came with the crate engine. I have an idea of making an adapter for the Mopar 440 AG intake but we will see how that plays out.

That’s pretty cool, I am interested in your findings as well. I thought about laying the hood on there a few weeks ago but I know that I would start down that path and I am not ready for that just yet.

So I got this sorted out today. I ended up moving the trans up 1/2" (using the 2 spacers that came with the TKX kit) and adding 2.5 deg shims to the rear end. I just need to replace the piece I cut out and we are back in the game.. LOL

Well the TTI mounts couldn't mount the engine much lower because the oil pan is about an inch from the K frame. As it turns out, I really would have only had to massage 1 spot on the floor plan and all of this would have been good. I really didn't need to cut out what I did.

After some research/investigation and measuring I have arrived at that I need about 2 degrees down on the rearend or so. I "may" not have had to cut the floor open but I am still not sure. It is not just the angle of the trans but that of the driveline and in order to get it "in spec" (according...

Funny you should mention that... LOL With the trans pushed all the way up I can get 3 deg. I need to jack up the rearend to ride height and measure the entire driveline angle. Tremec has an app for this which is stupid easy (not that its all that hard anyway).

Thanks but this isn't perfection, this is a necessity. If this angle is bad it will destroy the driveline (U joints, seals, bearings, etc). It will also vibrate at speed.

Nothing can ever be easy... LOL So as I was preparing to build my exhaust system I could not help but notice that the collectors seemed to be pointed downward. At first I dismissed it and just thought about how I was going to get the exhaust angled up to nearer the floor but then it dawned on...

Outside of replacing it with a 340 or 360, I'd definitely do a cam and a set of aluminum heads.

While I wait on the MAT, I started working on the exhaust. The first thing I always do is modify the collectors, I add a small piece of pipe into the collector which helps to keep the gaskets from blowing out. These small/short pipes are welded inside the collectors. I got this idea from...

Yeah that would make sense, I ordered one so we will see.

I looked that one up and it might work, just seems to me that I am missing something. Everything else has been plug-n-play

So I heard back from Holley and they told me that I needed temp sensor 56028364 which I have. I went and took a hard look at the connection and something is just not right here, there is NO way that this will connect with either temp sensor I have (the one I mentioned and the one you guys told...
