Has anyone used Firmfeel upper control arms or similar products to improve positive caster? If so, was it worth it and would you do it again? My ride is a 1973 Charger, please share what vehicle you used it in.
Many of us claim to know this or that that is taking place inside the combustion chamber, quite frankly I doubt many of us really know any more than the seat of our pants tells us. Even fewer of us know why one coil, ignition module, spark plug, plug wires, etc. over another really works better...
I meant to explain the above pictures, 1st picture is custom battery hold down, 2nd picture is custom painted hood insulation, 3rd picture custom diagonal fender braces, 4th and 5th pictures are of vertical console with gauges, radio w/ backup camera.
Bob, Thanks for your input in this thread. As far as different manufactures for the HEI modules, I have read in other forums that not all HEI modules are created equal, while others are just rebranded from the same manufacture. I do understand that proper heat sink is critical to the life of the...
Same subject, but different. How do you know if the HEI module is defective or damaged? 1- Either creates spark or it doesn't or 2- Develops a miss 3- Something else
Yeah I saw your response previously posted, basically my response is simply this; Why keep the ballast resister in the loop whenever it's function is being bypassed other than the appearance of a stock look? Why not simply take the 2 feeds (start/brown & run/blue wires from the bulkhead)...
You obviously are more knowledgeable concerning these matters than I, hence my asking for advice. I picked these particular diodes for the current rating, just happens to be 5 in a package. How would you arrange them, or am I barking up the wrong tree?
Ballast resistor has been removed to unclutter the firewall, my thought is why have it on the firewall if it's not going to be used? As far as some thoughts on the diode, the link below is similar to what I thought of using. 5 PCS 20A10 | 1000V 1KV Axial Bridge Rectifier Diode | General Purpose...
I was just curious about back feeding current if using both feeds to the coil? Any thoughts? Gues I could use some diodes to make sure the current only feeds on direction.
I've done a recent 4 pin HEI module conversion to my 1973 Charger/440 and have eliminated Chrysler electronic ignition and ballast resistors. The question I have is, which circuit coming out of the bulkhead should be used to power terminal B of the HEI module, which also goes to + side of the...
I'll print the diagram off then let you know, but to describe the relay: It looks like a flasher but is 3 spade instead of 2, it is located behind the ashtray under the dash in the general location of the blinker flasher. It gets warm to the touch generally when door is open. However, mine is...
Thanks for the reply. Long story, but the jest of it is this engine is basically a race engine, mechanical advance only with a limiter plate in the distributor, hence the reason I trailer it to most shows (Pride for bragging rights is a terrible thing, LOL). When running works and sounds great...
I been chasing my tail concerning sporadic ignition issue, starting back in June my 73 Charger with a 440 would occasionally have a starting issue where it would start normally then immediately die. Started thinking it was a fuel issue, all checked out fine there. So started checking out the...
