I'm in Commiefornia where when you buy a can of 134 you also pay an additional $10 deposit until you return the empty can for a refund. So if you don't use the entire can how do you save the contents? There is no common sense with this states Democrats. And no relief in sight as they control...

Yes I did. About five years old I took the wheels off my wagon to grease them. This wagon was made either pre war (WWII) or maybe 1941 as there was a steel shortage after that. It had roller bearings. They were not caged so feel off on the ground when the wheel came off the shaft. I messed...

I've always been a little hesitant to take on an auto trans rebuild. Have done a few 3 and 4 spds though. With my memory and apparently cognitive lapses in my advanced age I would only try one while being supervised. With You Tube I could probably get through it though. The manual appears...

Rishi...I found the exact service info you posted n my 1966 Dodge service manual. Don't know how I missed that. And, about 20 pages later it shows pictures of the filter on a valve body. Read about the band adjustment too. I have an inch pound torque wrench so probably a good idea to do the...

I was kinda thinking about the valve body as well but was not sure if these transmissions had a normal howl. If I remember correctly a 1955 Olds I had with the hydromatic had a normal slight howl/whine. Of course it very well could be a dirty trans filter restricting flow. Appreciate all the...

I have the 2004 Dodge 2500 diesel and use the ATF+4. Just want to be sure it's the proper stuff to use in the 727. Probably will work just fine. Been searching on line this AM for the gasket and filter and so far the only kit I can find with a rubber gasket is at O'Reillys. Have not checked...

This noise might be better described as a whine. And definitely not the rear end. Good to know it's not supposed to be there and that there is a filter. I will service this as soon as I recover from foot surgery. Right now I am "out of order". Since the converter can be drained too I will...

I have a 1966 Charger with a slight howl on torque when shifting the three speed 727. Only on torque not when coasting. Did these transmissions have any noise when shifting when new or rebuilt. I believe the trans has around 110K miles and shifts well. Not particularly objectionable noise...

Yes it's an auto and good to know. Before the rebuild and after I have been having problems with adjusting the choke. It's either too much tension to pull off after warm up or not enough to keep it running when cold. Put a new Carter manifold pull off in as well. I will keep tinkering with...

Yes CA is different. In sooo many bad ways dealing with the California Air Resource Board (CARB) who have outlived their usefulness. I lived thru the bad smog years in the 60's and they were beneficial in making changes but now they just cost us more money. A bottle of Nitrous Oxide might help...

My 66 Charger with a 383HP engine was purchased new in CA and has a Carter 4 barrel with I believe an aftermarket 4133S CAB carb and a green nox device I believe mounted on the rear of the manifold. I recently rebuilt the carb and found a metal tag under the carb brass identification tag...

Over the years I have heard various reasons for the H pipe but the one that makes most sense to me is that the factory did not install them until the RB block came along. A balanced exhaust system seems to make sense too but why I do not know. I believe you are correct. Small increase in HP...

Got under the car yesterday and wire brushed some of the crud off the rear pipes and that exposed holes thru the pipe. They are toast. So new system is in order. Just one more question, which may raise a can of worms but here goes. What is the actual benefit of the H pipe? Mopar big blocks...

Are those 2.5 in and out? They look nice. I can look up the numbers you have in this post to check fitment and price/availability. I will still need to sand on my existing pipes a little to make sure they are going to last. Maybe won't have to change them out. I believe they are okay...

26" overall. That is what would be a direct fir with the pipes on the car now. I already looked at the resonator thread. I do not have room for those with the current pipe configure. Just looked on Summit under the Jones mufflers. They don't say much about the muffler other than high flow...

I'll take a look. I tried Summit/hemi and only saw four mufflers listed but probably my using the Charger as a search limited my response.

Drove the car yesterday on the longest drive since I purchased it in June. What I noticed is that if I can stay out of the 50MPH speed, nearly impossible with all our two lane roads and tourists, the sound is not too objectionable. I live in rolling hills/mountains with very few opportunities...

Thanks. Maybe others following this post will get something from his opinion as well. And I hope the 66/67 Chargers are not a unique animal when it comes to mods from original. Looking at other body styles similar to the Charger would likely be similar. Like the 67 Barracuda, etc.

I could try changing the mufflers but if it did not work then I'm still looking at a big payout. Have not priced just the mufflers yet. And then I still have the old pipes which do show some age and declining condition. Plan to do a little more aggressive cleaning on those to see if they NEED...

The Accurate tech is back and I spoke with him today. He has been doing this work for several decades. After having me check my exhaust manifolds to determine if they are stock (they are) I sent him pictures of my current system and this time I measured the pipes with a caliper instead of...
