Awesome, you will love RT66. I did the entire thing from Chicago to Santa Monica in my 1968 Dart GT (273/904/7.25" w/2.93 gears) and loved every bit of it. The car is all original, so after checking the major systems, it was mainly a leap of faith as well. I too packed a ton of clothes, parts...

Hi everyone, I need a little assistance finding a man located in Ephrata, PA. I bought a rear end from him long ago and was extremely pleased. I would like for him to rebuild my 727 but I lost his contact information. There's very little to go off of here I know, but I figure if he's popular...

X2 no more needs to be said.

I just installed a 904 in a 66 valiant last weekend. I always go by feel. I poured one quart in the TC and 4 in the pan, then started it up and poured as much as it would take to fill, which ended up being 7 quarts. Theres lots of good info here and I agree with the stock specs provided most...

The weight you are referring to is necessary for overall balance of the converter itself to keep it a neutral balance converter. An external balance converter will have big weights on either side of the drain plug. If this is the case, knock them off if you don't need them and you're golden...

Could you provide a picture? Thanks.

I hope this helps anyone who did the same thing as me. It occurred to me last night that I took the pedal apart to grease it and I may have flipped the bracket. Well guess what, I did! So anyway, problem solved and it returned to its natural position. The floor bracket that mounts the pedal...

Strange question, may I ask anyone with an early a v8 to take a picture of the way their gas pedal rests on the swing arm? I recently installed my carpet and I'm wondering if the plastic liner behind the pedal at the top is supposed to contact the pivot arm at rest. It seems as though mine rests...

how long will the face off be there? i could go on the 15th and 16th thats why i ask? thanks.

Lol thanks for the laugh. This is far from a rebuild. Just an old engine looking to buy some time with this balancer. The old balancer was completely shot with rubber missing and inertia ring wobbled around. Reason for all this is ive been hunting a nasty vibration in the car for some...

Does this balancer look ok to use? Rubber is bulging slightly in places. Thanks in advance. This is for a 273. [/URL][/IMG]

Thanks. I have a 65 273 as well I could pluck from but its buried in the corner of my garage and much harder to get to. Maybe itll motivate me to finally clean.

I have a 66 273 commando in need of a harmonic balancer and was wondering if one from an 83 318 would work. If not, what are the differences. Thanks for the help.

So funny thats my favorite song right now.

Thanks for your help. I'll check the driveshaft out. I'm positive now everything's ok except for the shaft.

Ok definitely feels tighter with the wheels off. There is a slight movement but that may be normal. Thanks that makes sense. The only other thing I noticed is the whole rear end is not centered perfectly. The drivers side wheel fits my three fingers(index to ring) loosely whereas I can barely...

It is a cone. I can run out and pull the tires off to see if it feels tighter and we can go from there. I just can't help but feel like its looser than it should be. Who knows, maybe I'm worrying because of the driveshaft issue. I drove it way too long before even thinking the driveshaft was the...

Based on your answer, I'm thinking the output shaft is ok, as it was pretty solid with the driveshaft installed and bottomed out. Now the rear, with the driveshaft removed, the gears feel loose. This feeling remains with the driveshaft installed. If I were to rotate the tire or driveshaft...

So here's the story. I have been chasing a vibration for quite some time and I'm wondering if I've damaged the trans or rear in chasing it. Nothing is broken, just have some questions. First, the car is a 1966 Plymouth valiant with a 66 commando 273, tci 727, and 8.75 rear with 3.23 gears...

Yes there is a hole on both sides and they make muffled exhaust sounds. It's strange but the drivers side sucks air in whereas the passenger side blows air out. The holes are blackened with soot so there's no doubt something is going on. And they are hot as he'll to touch. When temporarily...

I have a strong hunch they are all the way through because I feel a suction on one side which I am assuming to be the intake vacuum and this would explain a hell of a lot. I will confirm this and have them tapped and plugged anyway.

http://s117.photobucket.com/user/djmdragracing/media/ld340.jpg.html This picture is representative and I borrowed it from a google search. This is not my photo. I am referring to the hole on either side of the intake below the carb base in the middle. Disregard the arrow in the picture. That...

Try retro radio restoration in PA. Prices are not bad at all for the quality you get. If you have your old one, give it to them and they will gut it and put all new internals with jacks for whatever you want in the back.

Would a 66 valiant carry the commando v8 emblem as well in the location noted if so equipped such as B-onefan's valiant?

SRT Television Commercial: Body and Soul. - YouTube I like it.

Haha I was wondering myself, no way no one said anything yet.

I've never had a new converter come with oil, but if you fell better, dump it and put your oil. People say about one quart. I just fill it till it seems enough, then install on trans shaft. Spinning left and right as you install may help seat it. You must be sure it is seated all the way. Bolt...

Its funny seeing this as I was recently seriously considering this trip. I live in md, so I wanted to do from oc to st louis tolos angeles in my 68 dart gt using 66 when I got to chicago, but I opted to get all my projects done first and do this later when I can plan a little better and bring a...

Ok I have researched the topic, but I have a few lingering questions. I know that the ohms should read 10 full and 73 or so empty for mopars. My gauge shoots to full when grounded, so everything forward the sending unit is good to go. Will wiring in resistors from RadioShack help? And how...
