1971 440 4bbl 4spd in 74 body. Have overheating problems on "city" type stop and go traffic -- worse of course on hot summer days. I've taken things apart, flushed radiator, and have new thermostat. In breaking things down, I'd like to replace the intake neck, water pump and housing with...

1971 440 4 bbl Just installed a new (refurbished) electronic distributor, rotor and cap. Made note of the rotor and distributor body when I removed it. Did not turn or move the car in between removal and install. When trying to start the car turns over for a second or two and then I hear a...

The tube itself is now rocking back and forth and oil is leaking down and all over the pan. I've looked at this from underneath (don't have a lift) and can't see how to tighten down, or replace the tube. Any help is appreciated.

Just started up motor (440, 4bbl) and have white-ish smoke coming from valve cover oil fill cap. More throttle more smoke. I'm not sure it's the correct cap as it does not feel like it "seals" properly. Here is what I've done over the winter: powder coated valve covers and new gaskets, new...

​Running new hard fuel line from mechanical pump to carb on 1971 Charger with 440. Two questions: 1.) What is the correct path to run the line? In "front" of and "around" the distributor, or "behind" the distributor and "over" the valve cover? I've seen it pictured both ways. Also what is the...

I've made the mistake of taking off the manifold and not documenting all parts/placements. I've also removed the carb. Had the manifold cleaned and painted. Now I need to put things back together. Does anyone have a photo of a 71, 440, 4bbl, original "old iron" manifold that shows how the...

Just removed intake from 1971 440. Have new carb I'm installing and want to know if this is worth cleaning/restoring. Outside is rough, but I can work with it, inside looks very rough. ANY thoughts would be helpful. Also want to clean inside and out. What can I soak this in to reduce crap...

Want to remove the air conditioning from my 1974 Charger, 71 440 motor. Have searched threads but not found anything of great use. Any wisdom or suggestions would be appreciated. First time mechanic/restorer so excuse my ignorance but won't I need to reduce the number of pulleys, belts and what...

Set of tail lights rallye style. Good color not a lot of fade, no cracks or major scratches, very dirty. What's your best method / product for cleaning polishing. I've heard of finishing with a urethane coating to add shine and long term protection.

I've begun work. Carb off, rebuilding it. Have ID on the manifold. But for the life of me, I can't find the engine block stamp. I've researched and it says to look near the base of the distributor, but can't see anything. Can anybody be more specific? I'm not a car guy, but am a die-hard Mopar...

I recently purchased a 74 Charger Coupe with a 71 440 4bl, 4 spd. Looking to begin work on engine and body needs this winter. Can't figure out what service, parts, or repair manuals I should buy. And from what source should I buy the manuals. I'm very much not a wrencher, but my heart and soul...
