Drove the snot out of it.. out to get groceries. Highway cruising it has a bit of a miss/popping stumble at ONLY 3200 RPM. 3100 smooth, 3300 up to 7000!! SMOOTH. Guess that big open chamber intake manifold just doesn't like 3200 at 60 MPH. Guy I bought it from had the vacuum advance plugged off, I hooked it back up this morning and it runs better IMHO than it did corked.
Looks Bitchin'!!!Got the hood back from paint and installed. These cars were made for black, 6 pak hoods.

So I painted the block red not hemi orange yeah I know not correct but Chrysler red I like it.

Real quick comment.I'm curious about the Crane Rockers, since I have pedestal blocks on my heads
Hughes look like a nice product. I think T n D and Jesel are top of the line.Real quick comment.
I just read about the CNC'd aluminum rockers from Hughes, available with a cryogenic treatment (they suggest for over 600# springs). IF what they say is true, well, they are going on my 541 when it's being built, unless my builder has some beef with them.
Magnum 500 wheels also, if my car wasn't tubbed that is what I would do!Got the hood back from paint and installed. These cars were made for black, 6 pak hoods.

I had the "5 spoke" factory wheels on my 71 Charger R/T and like the look, but the "older me" now really likes the Rallye wheels, a LOT more.Magnum 500 wheels also, if my car wasn't tubbed that is what I would do!
