    HEMI arrived in a big orange box.

    The 81 hp also had headers and an aftermarket chip put into test mode to bypass the factory rev limiter. Looking at the dyno sheets most of the power gains were above 5000rpm, a range my motor will rarely see (street cruiser). I love the flat torque curve and the very lightweight weight as...

    Before I go further - Need some major help.

    Mopar 9 1/4" rearend

    I have the tsm rear disk on my Cuda (8 3/4) and love it. I have heard problems with the calipers with ebrake provisions sticking, I got the non e-brake kind with ss lines and have had no problems so far, they've been on the vert two years now. I'll never do drums again if I can help it...

    Brakes still will not stay pumped up

    look at the flexible line from the body to the rear axle, it may be soft/leaking, check the connections around the brass tee, and check the rear line for kinks. Have you looked inside both rear drums and verified everything is clean and assembled correctly? something may have slipped out of...

    Brakes still will not stay pumped up

    Duster pop out windows

    Do you have a service manual for your car? The procedure should be in there. I found having the parts book is a big help, it has exploded diagrams. -Daty
