Is there an exhaust manifold sequence for V8s (particularly the LA 360) ? Service manual only indicates torque specs for bolts....

Once you get sealer on the studs for the water jackets, what’s the best way to tighten? I’m thinking hand tight is out of the question…

Any vendors on this thread that will be attending the Fling be selling hardware? Particularly exhaust manifold hardware? Didn’t know if this what the right place to ask. I was gonna order some but thought supporting our vendors was better .

Hi All, Been wrenching on my first Mopar for about a year now and thinking about refreshing my motor and trans. I don’t think I need them rebuilt but since I’m not sure what’s been done, at least to the motor, would love to have a pro go through them and refresh everything (seals, gaskets...

Hi Everyone, I recently bought LED “330” bulbs which are approx 1/4 long for fender mounted turn signals on my 72 Swinger. They obviously are too small and was looking for ones that are approx. 1/2 inch long to fit the factory fender mount turn signal socket (pictured). Anyone run into vendors...

Wanted to add to the thread: I added the above picture with the LED “330” bulbs which are approx 1/4 long. I was looking for ones that are approx. 1/2 inch long to fit the factory fender mount turn signal socket. Anyone run into vendors only selling these midget bulbs? Anyone know who sells the...

Very nice ride, sir! If I may ask, what type of wheels are you using?

Yeah, it does have the bosses for screws. I'll look on Summit or look around other places. Thanks for the help!

The covers I have, like the ones I showed before, do not have those baffles. Just checked. Wondering if those can be purchased?

Gotcha. I was thinking of changing the style of breather to see if that would help with the oil issue but wasn’t sure if that would make a difference: Not sure what the underside looks like but there definitely isn’t anything like that already there.

The valve cover has no baffle. The breather cap itself looks like it has a baffle but would have to look at it a bit more closely. It’s something very similar to this: Should I be using a different type of breather?

Appreciate the knowledge. If I am getting some oil coming out of the breather, is a condition of a bigger issue? Just wondering, as that’s why I was thinking of closing that side off completely. Thanks again.

Hi Everyone! I have Mopar valve covers that only have one opening per side. Knowing that I’m running a PCV valve on one side, should I use a breather for the other side (doubling as my oil filler) or should I use a closed off oil cap? I seem to be getting some oil blowback coming from the...

Sorry, I have a large bolt pattern. I’d have to check the size of the nuts to be totally sure if I’m running 3/4 or 13/16.

Hi Everyone, Has anyone run into an issue where the rally wheel covers get in the way of completely bolting down your wheels? I started to install my covers and noticed that the cover gets in the way of the socket I was using and also my tire iron. My tire iron is a lot “thinner” than the...

None of the above. Suspension hasn’t been upgraded, stock, but will soon upgrade to tubular arms. Thanks for the advice!

Thanks for all the recs, guys. Would you all say the Skosh chart I supplied would be the best numbers to stick to or would it just be best to let the experts handle the numbers?

Hi All, I’m in need of finding a good alignment shop for my 72 Swinger in the LA area. Most shops that do alignments won’t adjust caster and want to make a sure I’m adjusting everything the way it should. I’ve read in a few older posts that the Skosh ratios are what I should be relying on...

I replied to your PM. Should be in your inbox!

Did you have any issues converting the gauges from factory to these aftermarket ones? I’m thinking of switching the ones out in my 72 Swinger but wondering what steps are involved? Are yours digital or manual? Thanks for your insights.

Here’s a few from the show on Saturday…

I had a question about the fender mounted light bulbs. Charts says 330 bulb for my 72 Swinger. I’m trying to convert to LEDs but seems like the 330 LED bulbs are very tiny and don’t fit the socket? Does anyone know if the 330 bulb is the correct size or am I missing something? Thanks for the...

Will you be at the house spring fling tomorrow, Saturday? Wondering if you brought the air box with you?

Hi Everybody, I am looking for a driver’s side Fresh Air box for my 72 Swinger; preferably with the attached door. I haven’t had much luck finding one online or through retailers so any info would help. Thanks!

How many LEDs did you use or order for the entire cluster?

Any good recommendations for LEDs for the dash? I have a 72 Swinger and am looking to upgrade soon. Thanks!

How much for front brake assembly (i.e. controls arms, spindles, rotors, calipers, lines, etc)? Factory discs, correct? Looking to convert my 72 Swinger from drums to discs.

Probably gonna go the Dr Diff route. If I decide to keep my rear as drums and switch out my fronts to discs, would it be best to change out my stock master cylinder/add booster or can I continue to run the stock cylinder? Thanks.

If I was to go with stock pieces, would you say any post-73’ A body or specific models? Valiants? Dusters?
