Cranky, if you go to restorationradiators.com you should find the answers to your questions. I just purchased a 3-row Max cooling radiator (an upgrade from 3-row standard cooling), for my '72 440, and while I haven't installed it yet, the workmanship is second-to-none and it is an absolutely...
FBBO Gold Member here.. As you know, the 2023 Demon 170 is the last production year for this particular Challenger. If you haven't found the one you're looking for, feel free to send me a PM and let me know. Most are purchasing these cars as an investment, and some just want to own and drive -...
Most cost-effective, reliable method.. please include suggestions for parts/components, and where to acquire them. This is an occasional driver that will not be racing, just cruising. Thanks!
I agree! I don’t have leaks with the covers on the engine now (or, almost undetectable), but I will check the flatness. I just like the look of the Mopar Performance Ribbed Aluminum Covers, and hope I’m happy with them! Thanks for your input, I appreciate it!
Thanks for your timely response, Pops! I will be using Fel-Pro gaskets, as well. When you say, by the book (I know it can just be a phrase), can you please tell me which book? I would like to purchase it, if it's available. Thanks Again!
Good Day All! I recently purchased a pair of Mopar Performance Aluminum Valve Covers for my 1972 440 Road Runner. The current covers are steel. What are the proper torque values for the Aluminum covers.. certainly don't want to crack them. Thanks!
Thanks to everyone who replied..food for thought..my tire-burning days are about 50 years out..now just basically wanna do some cruising without rattling my teeth! Thanks Again!
Hello All, just seeking some opinions here.. I took my RR out for a drive the other day and wasn't entirely happy with the high RPM over 60/70mph (3.55 gearing). Many years ago I drove a friends '69 RR with 383 4spd with 3.23 gearing and remember how good it felt on the highway. My car is a...
I will be replacing the headliner in my '72 Runner soon.. any comments on quality regarding Legendary vs Classic Ind? Since I will be removing the old liner (slightly torn in the corners), I thought it'd be the perfect time to add some sound insulation to the roof. Any product recommendations...
I own a '72 Runner, so I always read, with interest, anything related to this era Bird. This is what I LOVE about FBBO, and why I became a Gold Member - you'll always get valuable info from those here before us - and it's usually pretty quick, as you now can attest to. Congratulations on your...
Hello All! Any recommendations on a reputable shop/mechanic in the Minneapolis area that specializes in Front end suspension/steering and alignment on 70, 71, 72 B-bodies? If so, please provide contact info and any pertinent information. Thanks!
My friend, you created your post UNDER the heading of my original post, and now I’m receiving answers to your post! Please create your own thread. Thanks!
Hello Again All! I'm working on improving handling, and upgrading OEM with newer parts. Has anyone installed PST Upper Control Arms and/or rebuilt their Lower Control Arms with the PST stiffening kit? Please elaborate. Thanks! P.S. I'll be going to the PST 1.03" torsion bars.
I'd appreciate some feedback on the best brand replacement belts to buy for my 7.2L One belt for my Alt/Fan and the other for the Power Steering. No A/C, or any other belt-driven components. If you can include Brand and Item number that would be fantastic! Thanks!
Yup, me again!
So, today the questions are regarding the replacement of my radiator and heater core. I just spent some time looking at various manufacturers, and thought why am I doing this when I could be asking the experts?
As many of you know, 2022 - 1972 = 50! While my current radiator...
