    PSA: Don't Text & Drive

    A small SUV -- newer car. I would estimate they were going a solid 40-50 mph...while staring at their shoes.

    PSA: Don't Text & Drive

    Thanks everyone for the well wishes. Still looking for the right body shop. I guess my concern is twofold. First will it be cost prohibitive to repair it? We're not talking about a 1 of 1 hemi car with some special VIN code that was blessed by the Pope as it rolled off of the assembly line at...

    Thank you. Luckily escaped with just a broken leg. Could have been way, way worse.

    PSA: Don't Text & Drive

    Heartbreaking, to say the least. The car was stopped and hit by a distracted driver. Another one bites the dust...Looking like a total loss. If anyone knows of a body shop in Pennsylvania/Ohio/New York area with a 1970 B-Body jig, please let me know. Otherwise, this one might end up becoming a...

    Mystery Bucket Seats

    They did come with the back seat as well, which I can confirm is a few inches more narrow than the back seat on my 70 RR.

    Mystery Bucket Seats

    Picked these up at Carlisle Seller did not know what they were out of, but thought perhaps a later (71-74) B-Body. I can't seem to find a match. Hoping someone can shed some light on the mystery...

    383 Build Questions

    Thanks for all of the responses. They've really helped to validate my sanity through this ordeal. I was able to complete a compression test with the Comp XE268H-10 cam today, and the results were stunningly low across the board, considering we have the domed KB pistons. In order of the cylinder...

    383 Build Questions

    One cylinder had approx 160 lbs. the rest had 180 lbs. The cam was not degreed on installation. The local engine builder told us it was not necessary. ??? He also said that the one cylinder with the 160 lbs. compression probably didn't seat the rings well, and it was nothing to worry about. Also...

    383 Build Questions

    Resurrecting this old thread looking for some more advice because two and a half years later, we still haven't gotten this car to run very well. In the meantime, here's what we've done: Added a Hughes 2400 rpm 11" stall converter Removed the Hughes 440 Whiplash cam because the engine builder...

    Any Carb Rebuilders/Tuners?

    Looking for someone who knows a bit about carb rebuilding and tuning in western, PA. (near Clarion county would be great!) I bought an Edelbrock Thunder AVS 650 on a mildly built (.40 over, Hughes Whiplash cam) 383 that we can not get to run right no matter what we try. It keeps dumping fuel...

    383 vs. 400 exhaust manifolds

    1970 Road Runner with a '66 383. Leaning towards the HPs, as I've heard the headers never really seal correct, cause a lot more heat, and have an awful drone during street driving. How much of that is true?

    383 vs. 400 exhaust manifolds

    Thanks for the advice. Has anyone ever tried these repro HP manifolds? http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Mopar-1967-69-B-Body-Big-Block-HP-Right-Exhaust-Manifold-/161805533462?hash=item25ac5c8116&vxp=mtr I'm wondering what the fitment may be like.
