Hello, Im installing racing seats in my 71 Charger and decided to sell my original black factory bucket seats. They are in really good condition with the only flaw being some small tears in the vinyl (none on the bottom surface or back, just a few on the sides of the driver seat and some...
I don't think it was ever hit, but there are some pretty good dents in the rocker panels, scratches in the k member, and dents in the frame rails. They were there when I bought it. Since then we've done a mini tub and put frame connectors in it and before I go any further with rust repair or...
How do you support a 71 b body when checking for frame straightness? I'll be using the service manual to get dimensions and tolerances, then using simple measuring tools, nothing fancy. Just want to make sure I'm not getting a false measurement because I put jack stands in the wrong places
Check fluid, band adjustment then try again. If same thing happens, disconnect throttle linkage and gear selector in park. Start car, hold brakes, have someone manually put it in Drive underneath the car, then see if it goes into gear normally and drives normally (after they get out from under...
Is the shape of the 73/74 K any different than the 71/72? Also doesn't the 73/74 use different motor mounts and have iso bushings between the k and the frame?
I'm re-ringing a 440 in bought for cheap. The rubber ring on the balancer looks like it's about to come apart. I'd like to replace it, but haven't been able to find a stock replacement. My crank is forged but the engine is external balanced with weights on the tq converter and holes drilled...
Looking for a mildy used running 440 that has been machined and rebuilt with at least 9:1 compression, and some bowl clean-up and valve seat work in the heads. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 400hp. I have my own 1 7/8" headers and a 3000 stall ptc converter, and my dana 60 has 4.10 gears. Its...
Both. It's hard to road race and take corners with your back on a flat ironing board! Plus they just art comfortable to me after an hour of driving.
I like our rally gauges, center consoles and interiors, especially the seats. Wish they made a racing seat styled after it.
Those neon seats...
My stock 71 buckets are not sufficient for the type of car Ive built. Wish they were cause they look perfect in a stock interior. Will be looking at racing seats soon, and have not seen anything that looks right (in my opinion) in my stock black interior. I dont want flashy bright colors, or...
I've never liked the idea of the pinion snubber slamming into the thin metal of the floor pan. If it were me I'd weld a thick gage strip of metal lining the floor pan on the underside from rail to rail, so the snubber has something stiff to hit instead of banging on the floor pan
I remember being warned not to use 440 source valve train parts by most posts, but I think the majority of those were 4 to 10 years old. Guys saying the needle bearings came out during racing. But, Ive never bought anything from them I havent liked, and they must be refining and improving all...
Updating an old post.
I ended up buying Comp Cam Pro-Magnum roller tip rockers. They are very strong, and they ride on bronze bushings. So far so good.
This is my latch. Cleaned it up. The plastic block was flipped and kinked, not sure how it is supposed to be positioned originally. The body of the latch has some damage, around the striker opening. One of the rivets feels loose.
Is this a throw away or rebuild-able?
I did an ebay member search and mopar440greg wasn't found, is that the right spelling?

Im taking my latch out today. I think some rivets were stretched and warped, so the lever has way to much play. Maybe I'll be able to save it. are any of the internal components, like...
My door latch on my charger is broken. I've been looking for reproduction latches but cannot find them. Is there any other year/make/model that has the same door latch as a 71-74 b body? Possibly later 70's to 90's? Those years might actually still be sold at part stores and dealerships
