Hey everyone, I decided to jump into the world of EFI and removed the carb and installed a Holley Terminator X. Took some time to wire it all and replace the whole fuel system but overall it's been a success. I wanted to share it all with you. Not many intake choices for Chrysler RB EFI so I...

Hey everyone, I have a 727 and I replaced the Neutral Safety Switch (3 prong) when I rebuilt the tranny from a couple months ago and I bought it from autozone. Now the damn thing is leaking from the body of the switch (not from the threads where it threads into the tranny) . Anyone have any...

Hey everyone, Last night for my birthday I went to the local 1/8 mile drag way and ran a 7.1 with a 100 shot of nitrous. That was with me off the button for the last 100 ft as without a rollbar I'm supposed to keep it over 7.25 which I was trying to do! The car just responded much better to the...

I have a set of Retro-Fit Hydraulic Roller Lifters from comp cams 8921-16 but 1 out of a pair just collapsed. Not very happy about it as I felt like it has always been noisy and out of warranty. I have adjusted them multiple times following their instructions but the noise was always there and...

Hey everyone, I recently just installed a new battery disconnect switch in my car and to conform to NHRA rules I also hooked my alternator charge wire to the disconnect switch. Ever since then the car has been getting too much voltage (about 16v) and is causing my fuel pump to scream like a...

Hey everyone, I plan on building my traction bars with the help of this post: How to Build Modern Traction Bars I wanted to know if anyone could please measure their caltrac bellcrank and give me the distance between the pivot hole and the transfer point/pressure point (please see photo). I...

Hey everyone, I have a Holley 750 Double pumper with mechanical secondaries and i'm having a carb tuning problem. I'f i'm cruising in 3rd gear, punch it, the car will downshift but will have an initial lean spike (up to 16-17 AFR) but will then settle back down to 12-13 AFR within a second or...

Hey guys, thought I'd share a video of my first time drag racing with my home built 72 duster with a 440 BB. Ran a 12.6 at 109 mph. I can do better though, it sat on the rev limiter near the end and I need some cal trac bars. It was a total blast! This was at Fontana CA street legal night...

Hey guys, anyone out there with a 1970-1972 six pack Duster Hood from AAR please give me some dimensions on how much it gains you for height? I know on the site it says "Scoop height is standard Mopar 2.5 inches." but I heard that it is 2.5 tall in the back of the scoop, and about 4 inches in...

Hey guys, I'm going to the test & tune at Fontana this Jan 27. This will be my (and the cars) first time out on the track and was wondering what I should expect. Any idea on how many passes I will be able to get? I'm sure it will depend on how many people show up but I don't know if I'm going...

I have a freshly rebuilt 727 behind my 440 and I'm having an issue where the car doesn't like to cruise or stay in 3rd gear. I am also using a Lokar kickdown cable with a Holley 750 double pumper. While in third gear if I lift my foot off the throttle and slow down past 30-35 mph my trans will...

My car has originally a 7 1/4 rear end (72 duster) but I replaced it with a shortened ford 8.8 rear end. I bought the 8 3/4 rear shock mounts from Mancini, enlarged the holes a little bit so that the 3.25 wide u bolts would fit over the axle housing and into the shock mounts. When I tried to...

I have a 440 big block that has a steady stream of oil dripping when the engine is running. I just replaced the rear main seal (from 440source) and there is still oil dripping from the back of the oil pan/bottom of the trans tunnel. I made sure to place the seal in the right direction as well...

Hey guys, I have a newly rebuilt 727 automatic transmission with a shift kit installed in it with a stock column shifter. I was hoping to convert it to a floor shifter with a Hurst Quarter Stick Shifter. I had two questions about this: 1) I have only seen guys run this kind of shifter on a...

Hello, I'm trying to remove my steering coupler from my 1972 duster and having issues. I bought a Flaming River FR1506P steering coupler to hopefully help with some header clearance issues. I have already removed the roll pin that connects the coupler from the steering box. I've heard of a...
