    SRT8CUDA Build

    Jim, Dot sure if you ever got back to your replacement tail light upgrade but I have run across these "Plasma" LED 1157 Bulb replacements sold by West Coast Classic Cougar. They obviously are not just for Ford products and seem to be a quality unit with high lumens. They also offer a discount...

    6.4 hemi

    Has anyone looked at the differences in the SRT 6.4L versus the HD truck 6.4L? I'm hearing from people that the truck accessories in front are a better fit in the cars. Since the intakes are different I was curious how the other things on it are (MDS, VVT, etc.) and if they might be better or...

    545rfe ?s

    Since they use the same Case and are the same size minus the rear extension, has anyone considered using the 66RFE? It's stronger and used behind the 6.4L Hemi. You'd have to use the much bigger spline yoke. It is newer and would have to have the programming for the 6 speed. The torque...

    [WANTED] Dash Frame for '72 Valiant (with good pad a bonus!)

    I recently saved a Valiant that was headed for the crusher. For some reason, the little purple sedan caught me eye and I felt that I needed to have it. She's not bad but she will need some serious work before I can turn her into a Pro-Touring restomod. One of the big things I just discovered is...

    The Building of the Blue Mistic

    Just reading through this and getting up to speed on your build. (Love it!) Just curious as to why you decided to swap the trans to the 545RFE when you had a NAG1 with the Hemi you bought in the picture. They are smaller and would fit with much less floor pan modifications and they are strong...

    New borgeson fast ratio steering box

    Most of the late model Mopars use ATF+4 in place of Power Steering Fluid. I was told this helps pump noise, especially when cold. Something to consider? My Duster was originally a power steering car but we switched to manual when we found out our original CPPA Headers didn't fit with Power...

    Ask away! What do you want to know about the 68RFE?

    '71 Duster - 440 (340 clone)

    Tony, things aren't looking good for showing on the 30th unless I drive the SRT-4. Everything else is broken or down...maybe I can talked the wife into bringing the family up though for the afternoon. It is free, they have free ice cream and hot dogs and drinks for the kids. Here's before...

    '71 Duster - 440 (340 clone)

    Hello! :hello2: I've checked over the Forum several times but never took the time to sign up until now. I'm hoping this will help push me to get my Duster back on the road after being down for many years. It was a father/son/brother project when I was in college so Dad did the funding...

    [SOLD] New set of year one 17" rallye wheels with tires

    Any chance of seeing a picture of the scratch just to see if it could be polished out? And maybe a picture of them on the Duster? Just want to see how well they fit on it since I'd be putting them on my '71 Duster 440. I've heard the offset isn't great fit for A bodies. I'd love to see how they...
