Have a 70 Roadrunner I purchased 2 years ago. Been toying with the idea of converting over to a Gen II Crate Hemi. Money is tight and wondering what my 383 would be worth if I tried to sell it after I purchased and installed the Hemi, the 383 runs great. Would include the exhaust manifolds...

Have began the process of getting the information that I need to convert my 70 Roadrunner 383/Automatic to a Gen II Street Hemi. Not going to race just have always wanted to have a Hemi Mopar. Have decided (since I do not have any engine building experience) to go with a crate engine with...

A couple years ago I purchased a pretty nice 1970 Roadrunner (383 auto). Have always wanted to own a Mopar Hemi car (am getting older and if I don't do it now it's not going to happen) but an "original" one is and has always been way out my price range so the only way to do it would be to...

A buddy of mine sent me the info on an article that appeared in Hot Rod Magazine back in Sept of 95 on how to convert over to one of the newer Mopar 4 speed automatic transmissions, a A500 or A518. Guess they bolt right up just like a 727. Very interesting (to me anyway) since I have been...

Been looking around for a 3:23 ring & pinion set for my 70 RR and up until now everyone had been telling me that new ones were not available anymore......well now after searching around on the net I found out that Nitro Gear And Axle is making them. www.nitro-gear.com Their biggest retailer...

For any of you that might be interested the November issue of Mopar Muscle magazine has a pretty in depth write up on the new Edelbrock Aluminum Gen II Hemi Victor Jr. heads. Got a chance to get a close up look at them at the DPC show in Lake Orion Mi. a few weeks ago and they looked pretty...

Have a 70 RR......has the stock floor shift with the console........have been wanting to replace it with something "different".....found the Duncan Motor Sports Shifter-R-Gate last fall but just called them to order one and they do not make them anymore, they just make the Shift-R-Arm (which is...

Newbie Oil Pressure And Temp Gauge Question For A 70 383 Have recently purchased 70 RR with a 383......Rally gauges (including the oil pressure gauge) do not really work well so I installed a Auto Meter Full Sweep Mechanical 3 gauge panel under the dash. Oil pressure shows 58-59 pounds when it...

Have a 70 RR with a 727 trans I recently bought late last year. Transmission seems to shift into second & third really quickly......If I start from a traffic light say at a 3 lane intersection (two traffic lanes and a left turn lane) by the time I get across the intersection the trans has...

Have a recently purchased 70 RR/383/Auto with console. It has the wrong shifter-it is a 66-68 type shifter (all chrome) and is pretty much worn out so it needs to be replaced. I know the repro catalogs offer reproduction shifters. Was wondering if there is a after market shifter that will...

New Mopar owner. What is the correct/best spark plug to use for a 1970 RR 383 automatic? Went to the Champion web site and they do not even list on for my car.....kinda weird.....

Have recently purchased a 70 RR (383 auto). Has a 3:91 gear and would like to keep that but now days we drive longer distances to attend car events and having some sort of an over drive is pretty much the best way to keep the RPM's down while driving on the freeways. Would like to install a...
