    Magnum and Wiring Swap

    Found this one - 56021223AI 1999 Dodge Dakota PL PW 4X4 AT Body Control Module BCM CTM | eBay Listed for a '99 Dakota, but when I google the part number 56021223AI I found a listing for a '97- Ram as well.

    Magnum and Wiring Swap

    I think any Dakota/Durango should work. Maybe even a van or truck, but not sure. If you wanted to add the VTSS functionality, I think it has to be a highline or premium unit and should have had the VTSS enabled before hand. No idea on getting the fob programmed to it if you don't get one with...

    Magnum and Wiring Swap

    I think in order for it to work, it needs to see valid communication and then lose that communication. That's why power has to be on before shorting the network. If it is open, it just waits to see if the network is fixed and whatever it does to disable the no-start logic never happens. Which...

    A-Body Round #2- My '76 Scamp restore...

    I would go back to that ground screw and make sure it is making a good connection. Sounds like maybe it isn't getting a good ground so it has to back feed. But there are people way much smarter than I on this. Maybe @slantsixdan?

    Magnum and Wiring Swap

    Shorting the network won't hurt the PCM. The network is a loop that goes high and low to created messages and shorting it just means communication on the network can't happen. It's not going to short the PCM and damage anything, it just means the PCM will see a communication issue and log the...

    Magnum and Wiring Swap

    My understand is that the PCM P/N will not tell you anything. The PCM's all come capable of a no-start security setup, but it isn't until they see a VTSS (or whatever) signal that it is activated. The above is from a 2000 Dakota FSM. In this case, the VTSS setup is enabled in the CTM.

    Magnum and Wiring Swap

    I ran across a tip years ago and saved it. The gist of the tip is that if you turn on the vehicle and then short the CCD or PCI bus wires and then turn it off while it is still shorted, the PCM will stop looking for the VTSS message and start. Assuming the vehicle doesn't have VTSS which would...

    New rallye dash replacement gauges/tachs (some insider news from the supplier)

    The Autometer website title says 5", but the spec says 4.5" so you are right.

    A-Body Round #2- My '76 Scamp restore...

    Best guess, the ground wasn’t really grounded because the plastic relay was insulating it on that side. So the power was back feeding through the other circuits. I had something similar happen when I added relays.

    How many CURRENT owners of real '74 360 Duster 4 speed cars on here?

    Mine has subframe connectors, and I have upgraded a lot of the suspension including 17" wheels. I drug my feet for years over cutting the floor for a 6 speed, and have since bought a '73 Duster to put the G3/T56 in. I have several modifications made to the numbers matching motor plus several...

    How many CURRENT owners of real '74 360 Duster 4 speed cars on here?

    I'm dying to get out and drive mine. Long winter and a back injury kept me from dropping the trans to figure out why it was getting stuck in 4th. Got it done now and fixed a couple of other issues and seems like the weather is playing games with me.

    17” American Racing Torque Thrust Wheels

    UBJ can be an issue, but usually it is the outer tie rod that is the biggest limiter.

    17” American Racing Torque Thrust Wheels

    If it was me, I would do a 17x8 minimum with a 245/45 tire on the front. Since the offset looks to be custom, if you are (or plan to) run stock brakes, a +24mm offset should work. This is effectively what I have on the front of my Duster and didn't have to do a thing to the fenders. If you...

    '70 Dart 392 Project; what direction?

    Ouch. That Holley FEAD does move everything forward, didn’t think it would be that big of an issue though. Might have to look at a dual fan setup. Glad to see you still making progress either way.

    1974 Plymouth duster 360 fender tag decode.

    I could be wrong about this, but seems like I have heard that not everything got onto the fender tag every time. Makes sense than N41 would since it was part of the 360 package, but maybe not the N42 tips if it was an option? Mine doesn’t have tips, so I’m not help beyond the N41 dual exhaust.

    1974 Plymouth duster 360 fender tag decode.

    There is some possibility that the '75 and '76 E58 non-CA motors didn't have single exhaust and cats. Here is the factory offerings for '75 - https://www.hamtramck-historical.co...DataBook/1975/75-1-Dodge-engineering_0004.jpg Here is the '76 offerings. -...

    I don’t know of a registry, but the link Blu posted is close. I will get you added to the running list at some point soon. Not that I am the only one that do can, but I did start the thread so I have been updating it as people come and go.

    Did the 1979 Lil Red Express come with an air pump?

    It is possible that the federal E58 from ‘75-‘77 didn’t get a single exhaust or a cat.

    Did the 1979 Lil Red Express come with an air pump?

    The dealer info stills says 8.4:1 for ‘75 and ‘76. My guess is the power loss is due to tuning changes to get the motor through emissions with the dual exhaust and no cats. Assuming the link I posted had an accurate recollection and the ‘75 and ‘76 A-Body did still had dual exhaust and no cat...

    Did the 1979 Lil Red Express come with an air pump?

    I found it interesting that the '75-'77 E58 is listed with dual exhaust. I figured the drop in HP/TQ between '74 and '75 was due to having to use a single exhaust and a cat, but I found this post that makes me think they did actually keep the dual exhaust through at least probably '76. Not...

    Did the 1979 Lil Red Express come with an air pump?

    That's interesting. I would have argued that the 650 number was maybe someone misreading it (6 does look like 8). I've always heard of them as rated at 800 and 850 cfm. Looking at the list of TQ numbers, it does appear that the later E58 motors did get the smaller (1 3/8" primary) TQ, so that...
