I recently completed a 360,727,8 3/4 transplant into a 79 Dodge Aspen RT and have found something unusual I've not seen or heard before. The engine started up fine and seems terrific. Soon I began to notice a buzz / Metallic noise I've never heard from inside an engine before after 45 years in...

Completed my 360 build and installation. Purchased several quarts of Lucas "Break in Oil ". Also have a bottle of "Break in Additive ". For first start up is there any such thing as " too much"? The operative chemical I believe is Zinc, but how much is too much ?

I recently took my 360 off my engine stand and installed it in a 1979 Aspen RT. The information sheet for the new headers said to remove the oil filter for additional clearance during installation. Didn't seem complicated until I tried to put a filter back on. The Mopar filter with its 3 1/2"...

While assembling the 8 3/4 rear axle for my Aspen RT I purchased the 3" Moroso Axle Studs and American Racing Outlaw 1 alloy wheels. I now need alloy type lug nuts with the block shoulder for the wheels,but long enough to tighten on the long studs. Can't see to find them anywhere,considering...

Hope for advice from other Mopar Lovers. While attempting a rear axle upgrade from an 8 1/4 to an 8 3/4 I discovered a broken R/R spring on my 79 Aspen RT. (I know it's not an "A" body , but it's what my current project is.)Didn't really think much of it , so I ordered new Direct Connection...

Does anyone know if an "A/Body" rear spring Shackle will fit on an "F Body" . ( 79 Dodge Aspen RT). Can't find a clean listing in any ones catalog for an Aspen.

I'm working on a rear axle swap with a "B" body 8 3/4 axle into a 79 Dodge Aspen RT. I have the correct lower spring mounts , but the shock configuration is different as the lower shock is a "Bolt/Bushing" arrangement instead of the original bottom" Stud/Nut" F Body. I'm thinking OE B Body...

Just completed a 727 Torqueflite overhaul with a few mods from a TCI kit. It's been 40 some years since I've had one of these apart ,but most of it came back. Upon completion including "air checking" all seemed well. The problem began when I slipped a spare slip yoke into the extension housing...
