    Console shifter in 1st position ?

    simple question. Original 68 charger with console shifter. When you manually put the car in to L or 1st gear. Should it "lock" into 1st? By that I mean the shifter itself. When I move the shifter all the way down it never really "clicks" in 1st . The car does leave in 1st , I can slide up the...

    What do these spark plug say?

    Little back ground. I did the stealth HEI module swap inside the orange ecu box, gutted the ballast and got a summit E-coil. The car started right up, I'm running a wideband O2 and saw that it leaned out my idle so I adjusted the mixture and adjusted my rpm a bit and double checked my initial...
