Just had a bit of vomit backup to the bottom of my throat, was able to force it back down. Searching for the Hot Mopar Babes II thread for a cleansing...

That's almost exactly where Ehrenberg stated. I'm shooting for between 13.8-13.9.

I found the article in MA. It's the April 2022 edition. The VR is referenced in the article titled Acid Test, about restoring a battery tray. As a subtopic, Ehrenberg goes into over-charging batteries causing the releasing of corrosive acid. He devoted a couple of pics to the adj VR...

Yesterday I installed the Transpo adjustable VR. OOTB it was charging 15.5V so I dialed back the pot a quarter turn counterclockwise and it settled on 14.46V at idle.

I read your original thread - 2010 - that's an impressive run. And a very tidy engine compartment. You did a nice job of hiding the wiring harness back to the firewall.

The card attached to the PowerMaster alt only gives the output amps not the draw. I'm gonna call them and see what they have to say.

I went online, but MA doesn't have a decent search function. I have all my old mags going back to 2012; gives me something to do tomorrow while cooking the brats. Thanks.

I've subscribed to MA for 12+ years; I'm going to look for that article.

I did some research on them. Transpo has a manufacturing plant in Orlando, FL, which is also their headquarters. Transpo was acquired by WAI in 2004, and operates as a wholly owned subsidiary. WAI is headquartered in PA but has a 100,000 sq ft facility in Shanghai, China. Their narrative is...

Cruising Ebay, seller oldcarpartsnw has new OEM VR with the superseded part numbers 4111990 & 3874520 for under $30.

Before asking my question, here's the backstory. I have a '68 Dart with the 1970 ignition system; dual field squareback alt (Powermaster), electronic VR, dedicated 10g charge wire from the Alt Batt stud to the starter relay. Ammeter is hooked up and works, stock wiring through the bulkhead...

So it runs and drives? Have to trailer only because of the non-op?

Wow, that's a shock. RIP Christine

It's part of a 73 car collection in SD, auctioning off by VanDerBrink. Most of the vehicles are serious projects or parts cars at best. But there are two cool Mopars that are in decent shape, a 61 Dodge Phoenix and a 61 Plymouth Fury convertible. Auction ends Friday evening.

Great times! A little tuning and you'll be moving on to the 10 sec forum.

I used the Blitz Black (rattle can) on my dashboard. It's a great looking black and you did a really nice job. Should look great on the hood too.

The chrome ones always leak. Had one that was machined flat, installed with only a gasket, gasket and a little sealer, gasket with a lot of sealer, didn't matter. Finally installed a stock housing from Mancini and leak more. Plus I think the engine color housing looks better anyway.

When I had the 440 done in 2013 I went with Hughes Engines FT cam and valve train. I had heard things about Comp Cams even back then, but what sold me was Hughes' hyd FT profiles were as aggressive as Comp's hyd roller series. When I asked Dave how he was able to do that, he said its because...

I applaud your OCD; the car is going to look spectacular when done. And thanks for the P7 tip; I saved that for future reference.

Same thing was happening on my Dart; idler arm was sawing a hole in the one header tube. I removed the header assembly and cut out the hole. Cut a piece of metal tubing in half (may have been 1" diameter but I don't remember) and welded it in with the concave side facing out. Ground down the...

Ditto on the stroker for the type of build you're wanting. Check out 440 Source for their stroker kits. All they do is BB Mopars. Also check out Hughes Engines, another Mopar only vendor.

Just caught up on your thread. Thanks for the great stories; you've made memories that will last a lifetime.

Imagine how cool it would be driving that car around. It would be a hit at the local drive-thru.

Glad to hear you're OK. Looking forward to your next resto thread.

Spent a lot of time in the tent admiring your cars last weekend. Eventually I will add a super stock hood to my Dart and you answered my questions about the hood scoop stand-offs.

That's what I'm talking about.

Sorry to hear that. Hope you get it back.

Spent Thursday at Willow Springs

Speaking of restoring, how about this dash.
