    Any disadvantage to running brake booster to carb port?

    Is there any disadvantage to running the brake booster vacuum line to a carb port instead of the intake manifold? I've currently got mine running to the intake and the spark plug that is in direct line to the intake runner where the booster connects always gets black and crusty in comparison to...

    Rotary Valve Engines

    Just came across this video when watching a member's video of the problems he's having with his car. Unrelated to Mopars but should be interesting for anyone with gasoline in their veins.

    Engine sounds terrible - unknown part under car!

    Help required! Drove the car Friday night, running great. Blew a bit of the carbon off the plugs as usual, but nothing too crazy, maybe a few 5,500rpm runs. Parked the car, no issues. Went to drive it today and it started fine, oil pressure fine etc but was sounding terrible, like an exhaust...

    Do these Camshaft Bearings Look OK

    I've finally removed the old camshaft as part of the longest cam change in history, and need some advice on the condition of the cam bearings. Do these look ok or not? They look dodgy to me, especially on an engine that was fully rebuilt with new bearings only 5,000 miles ago, but I haven't seen...

    Service Dealer Codes in Glovebox

    Hi guys, in the glovebox of my 66 Satellite there is a service card with handwritten dates, mileage and codes. I was wondering if anyone knows what these codes relate to - is it the dealer that performed the service? If so does anyone know which city or state these dealers are? Thanks.

    318 Poly Headers - Worth it?

    Hi, I have a rebuilt 318 poly in my 66 Satellite. It was a performance oriented build, .bored 060", some head work, decent cam, 10.5:1 compression, 4 barrel 600 Holley on a factory 4 barrel manifold, windage tray, electronic ignition, 3.23 gears, 727 auto. It goes quite well, but I'm wondering...

    Exhaust H-Pipe Observations

    Last week I had a H-Pipe fitted to the exhaust of my 66 Satellite. Not only is the car much quieter at a 3000rpm cruising speed (you can actually have a conversation with your passenger without yelling at each other), the throttle response is way better at low rpm. Both of these improvements...

    8 3/4 Diff Drain Plug Help

    Hi, I want to install a drain plug in my 8 3/4 diff for easier servicing. I read an article in Hot Rod magazine on how to do it but am confused about the diameters of the drill bit & plug they refer to. In the article it states to drill a hole using a 21/64" drill bit and then tap the hole with...

    Absorbent Mat for Leaks

    Hi all, my mopar has 3 little leaks, Power Steering (minor, PIA), Transmission Oil Pan (minor, might try tightening the pan slightly) and Sump Plug (very minor, will fix next oil change). I'm thinking of putting an absorbent mat under the car to catch the leaks but I kinda like seeing what's...

    Poor Acceleration in Second

    I have a freshly rebuilt 318 Poly in a 66 Satellite. It's an auto (refreshed 727), and the motor has a performance cam, some port work on the heads, 4 barrel factory intake, 600 holley vac sec, and factory exhaust manifolds into a dual system. I've probably done about 1000 miles on it and have a...
