Yes, 12Volt. Meter says 13.1volts now so it is dropping. I will check after dinner and see if we are close to 12.6.

Hi Folks, Went to do my new engine break in today and my new Battery was close to dead so I charged it up. I checked it with the multi meter and it says 13.48 volts when it’s NOT running. Looks like something it ‘Leaching’ power from it. Hoping you guys can give me some ideas of where to check...

Roger that, thanks Guys!

Hi Guys, Will a 69 Dart 2 door Windshield work for a 73 Duster? Cheers,

Yes, its just not in the photo.

Here are the latest shots with the stock power steering. I dont have the column in yet, but it is trimmed down.

Okay cool, I will check it. I think the Classic one was 14 1/2" long. Will that 1/4" bite me or does it matter?

Looking for the one like Brewers sells (They are out of stock currently) for A bodies with Big Blocks. 14 1/4" Overall Length Shoot me a price with shipping to Canada if you have a spare. Cheers,

Ya, they totally give a guy some play for sure. I think I remember reading (from Schumachers site) that you should install the mounts a bit loose so you can adjust, etc. Get everything where you want, then torque em down.

I got it figured out. I had to take some material off the power steering box and then Jack the passenger side up/over slightly to fit the manifolds on. I had forgot to tighten down the mounts at first so everything was loose.

I got it almost perfect. I did make the proper mods to the K frame but it was still hitting the PS.

Yup, it’s definitely canted now that I am paying attention. Going to yank out the power steering box and see what happens. Will let you guys know.

Okay, so I hunted around and I think my power steering box is chanting the engine over slightly. It is mashed right into the drivers side engine mount. Can I take out the unit and clearance it a bit with the die grinder or are most guys going manual when they go Big block?

I will double check my mounts again tomorrow.

Schumacher and stock k frame

I’m using the Schumacher mounts.

That’s what I thought too. I kept the motor mounts loose in case I needed to tweak things so maybe I just need to Jack up the passenger side to shift it and then tighten?

Hi Guys, 73 Duster, 4 spd with a 383. Installing B body HP manifolds. Driver side goes in fine with steering column out but the passenger side wheel well is way close and I cant squeeze it in. I might be able to get a little more room if I put a Jack under the passenger side of the engine or...

You guys are Champions, awesome explanations and you answered my other question about stock sound and muffler sizes. Thanks again.

Thanks rumblefish. What is the difference between X and H pipe?

Okay, some custom work for the manifold end. That’s not a problem. I might call Accurate and see what they can do. I am just waiting on the manifolds, should have them within a week or so.

Thanks for the info guys. Would I still get the A body kit even though I am running a 383 or does it matter?

Hi Folks, 73 Duster 4spd, with a 383, 516 heads, 9.5:1 comp, stockish cam and HP manifolds. Looking for advice on a street/daily driver dual exhaust setup. Nothing crazy and I am hoping to buy a full kit like Summit sells, etc so I could install it myself. Using the HP big block manifolds...

Have these kicking around in a box of parts from a 73 duster 340. Not sure where they go or what they are?

Hi Folks, 73 Duster, 340, 4 spd. I have no power from my column red wire to flasher relay and no power to my instrument fuse panel (3A) in the photo. All other fuses work. The fried section in the harness was for the heater which has since been removed. Headlights work, 4 ways, wipers work...

Yes, the switch is turned to the right. Triple checked that one!

I’ve got a wiring diagram and will start tracing things tomorrow and see what madness that leads to. The yellow wire must be shorting out somewhere.

Tried connecting the posts together. No dice Tried installing new door jam switches. No dice Tried pulling out the time delay. No dice Rolled the car off a cliff and set it on fire. Dome light still on Is there a way I can just delete all this **** from the fuse box? Like dome, glove box...

Maybe it’s not the time delay then, dome light still stays on after I take it out.

Hi Folks, 73 Duster, 4 spd. I think my time delay unit is fried? My dome light won’t go off unless I unhook the battery. I also unhooked both door switches and still the same. I can’t tell if the two tabs on the delay are supposed to be touching or connected?
