I have a set of real ones! They are in excellent shape too. I am unfortunately missing the coil wire. I got em from a friend a while back that pulled them off his ford truck he got from an older fellow. The truck is immaculate. I used an ohm meter to check resistance and all were very similar. I...

At the very least you could pick up a cheapo choke kit at the local parts store and install thet. Then you'd solve two potential issues. You would have choke control which really helps our old MOPARS, and then you also cancel out the chance of the choke beig sucked closed. Im wondering if thats...

By the way. If your "warrantied" TC has been ran in another trans that was destroyed. You dont wanna run it. Its all the particulate matter inside that will jack up the new trans. You may be able to get another TC under warranty but can you get another trans is the question. I took a gamble and...

Does that matter? I thought headers were going in? Change of plans again?

Gotta hit the "go advanced" at the bottom, and then before you "upload" make sure they are the correct size or it wont let you.

Glad to see its all coming together. Now.. Just a tid bit. My Mother and grand mother live in Grayland still. My grandparents owned a hotel and restaurant there for many years. She sold the hotel about 10-15 years ago I think. Its the Place near the state park at the corner. They had a few...

So lets regroup here. You have: 74 Duster pre-72 K frame RV 360 As stated before you will need: 1. "bisket" style motor mounts. (make sure you do your home work to see if it is a slant six k frame) It make take yet another style mount! 2. Car oil pan. 3. Matching Oil pump pick up...

By the way are you in Grayland Washington? Sorry I cant answer the question as to whether those are the correct mounts or not. I havent delt wait those since 97ish..... LOL I replace the k-member to the spool type, but dont remmeber any details about mounts.

No dont do that! It will take out the bearings in the motor eventually, not to mention trans seals, bearings and its just a bad bad idea.... Do yourself the favor of maybe trying to sell some parts and come up with cash to get the correct flex plate. I bought mine from summit. I actually sold...

Ok I dont know how, but apparently the plugs on the ballest resister were backwards. I have not have that stuff apart for a very long time so Im not sure how, but it was! She is running!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok Im back on this, and getting NO WHERE!!!!! I said to hell with it and replaced the coil, BR, and the VR and it still gets no spark from the coil wire. Whats next guys? Im in the garage as we speak asking for help guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL

And I thank both of you! Ill try to check it out tonight. I dont get to drive this on at the moment, but I hate knowing that it wont just start if I go out and hit the key!

Thx guys. Is there a way to check the Ballast resister? I hate to start replacing parts to find a problem. We all know how that goes. If I can find a way to test the B.R. then Ill go from there. I dunno why but I have a feeling it is either thaBR or the Voltage reg.

C'mon guys anyone got any more info or insite?

yeah I think thats the next thing Ill be doing is replacing the Ballast resister. Like everybody I hate searching for electrical gremlins. It especially bad when you have limited electrical knowledge. I think Ill go get a new ballast resister and new voltage regulator. They arent too expensive...

well I have checked the voltage and on BOTH sides of the coil I am reading 10.8 volts with the ignition in the run position. Dont have any help at the moment so I cant check the voltage when the key is in the start position. Anybody have any ideas from here? I checked and I have no spark coming...

very usefull thx!

Im going to check the input voltage and make sure the wiring is all good. Where do I look next if the voltage isnt getting to the coil? I dont think this is the case but, if this turns out to be intermitent, then Ill have to start looking for issues ahead of the coil.

Hey guys whats up, I hope someone has some ifo because this is getting irritating! I have killed 2 coils in a matter of 5 starts! The only thing that has changed recently is the addition of a new alternator. My old alt. had a bad diode, at idle speeeds. I have replaced it and man what a...

Break it down! LOL, no but seriously, thank you for investing the time into answering my thread. And thx for the lead on the link. Ill be sure to read that. Being hoonest I have always been a "by ear or eye ball it" guy, so I have a feeling Ill be trying that next. It seems easier for me to...

Ok so here is what I mustered up after a bit of messing with it. I have about 18 degrees total advance, and eneded up with about 18" of vacuum. These results were obtained with the vacuum advance OFF and the carb port for the vac. adv. plugged. I left the pcv vacuum hooked up and put my vacuum...

Oh and also the Choke maling the engive rev makes sence when it is cold, but it does it when hot as well.

Are you allowed on here? LOL Just kidding thank you very much for the info. So here are my thoughts. I agree I probably do have to much advance. Yes its def. PING. Im sure I have an exaust leak as well but the Ping as you know has its own sound. I am thinking that my process should be this...

Hey guys and gals. Well I am mainly working out bugs on drive train and engine issues before I hit the body work real hard this winter. So here is what I have, and I am trying to get to a good solid Base point to start tuning. OK here are the specs. 74' 360 Old Edelbrock 318-360 intake...

Well thats good to know. Would you assume that its lean, because of its reaction when I choke it? This was done after it was warmed up plenty. I recently bought a vacuum guage and a nice timing light, so I plan to tune it to the best of my ability. Ill be reading up on it and looking for tips so...

Hey peeps, well I have been inching closer and closer to driving the Valiant and tonight I went out and fired it up. Well it has smelled rich (exaust) for quite a while now and I just havent gotten to the point of tuning it yet. Im not real good at it any how. But what threw me off tonight was...

I didnt use the cork end gaskets the last time I put mine back together and I used to have the same issue. Aside from that, it almost looks like the high temp sealer you used was practically dry before you set the intake in place. Im just basing that off of the look of the bead of sealer in your...

I had the same issues with mine too, but after it has sat so long Im gonna rebuild and reset along the way. Ill definatrly keep this thread handy.

Just a thought! If you plan on leaving the cam stock and running an Auto trans you may want to think about a dual plane intake. A single plane intake has a high RPM band and if you plan to play on the street more than the track and also dont plan to mess with the cam, it would probably be...

hey guys, a couple of years ago there was an article on a 68/69 charger that had a viper v10. In that big B body it mentioned that the firewall was moved back an inch or two as well as the radiato wall moved forward to accomidate the fans. It was black with red stripes and some very large rims...
