    Water pump outlet modifications

    I have a Magnum intake on my LA360 and I've never really liked cutting the bypass hose shorter and kinking it to get it to bend from the water pump to the intake. I've been looking around and see they already make water pumps that have the threaded connections, but they are very expensive...

    360 is still running hot

    I finally got the car out on its maiden voyage today! It was a long winter and lots of hours putting in new parts and goodies. Which included a nice set of Speedhut gauges. One of the issues I was having prior to the end of last year was the car overheating. I picked up a 3 row Champion...

    Distilled or Regular Water

    So Im curious and looking for opinions. For as long as I can remember myself and others I know growing up used just regular tap water to mix with their coolant. I recently picked up a Aluminum Radiator and it said to run distilled water only. My block still has some regular water and coolant in...

    How close is to close?

    After I installed my new Champion Cooling Radiator, the front of my fan clutch is only about a 1/4" away from the radiator. Is this to close for comfort or will this be a ok distance? I attached a pic although its tough to see. It also kind of looks like it isnt square to the radiator but that...

    Lets discuss my cooling

    Ok here is the set up. 71 Scamp, 360, xe268 cam, magnum heads, air gap, Holley 670, TTI Headers, 727, 3:73 gears. Pretty sure that is all. Now with that being said, the car originally had a 318 and never over heated, didnt matter if it was idling or driving. After I put the 360 in it, I cant...

    LA Engine with Magnum heads and intake??

    Hi guys, I am running a LA 360 with Magnum heads and magnum air gap intake. Im wondering about 2 things. First the Bypass hose. I picked up a standard LA bypass hose and because the air gap intake port is straight out the bypass hose is kinked and will not fit at all. I am running the LA water...

    Coolant Bottle

    Im curious as to how many of you have a coolant bottle. My 71 Scamp had one mounted to the passenger side fender but Im not sure if it was factory even though its got the Pentastar on it. Thing is I dont have a cap for it so it makes a mess. If it was not factory I would rather get rid of it...

    Blower motor

    I cant seem to find a place to buy a blower motor for a 71 non A/C heater box. Check my online stores like Rockauto and local stores but non listed. Anyone have a spot they pick them up from?

    A/C vs. Non A/C fire wall

    Does a non A/C firewall have a different opening than a A/C fire wall. Im curious because I tried to mount a non A/C box into my A/C car and it wasnt even close to fitting. Then found out that there was a trim ring for the fire wall side that was used to support the non A/C box. This was on my...

    What is this

    This is mounted on the fire wall in the cowl duct. The wire harness was not hooked up and what appears to be a vacuum line fitting had no hose connected to it. So what is it? Is it necessary or can I fill the hole that is in the cowl when I remove it?

    Heaterbox identification!

    I picked up this heater box and the guy said it was from a 71 Duster. Can you please let me know if that is correct. Im doubting him. Sorry the pic of the side side of the box would not upload. Thanks

    Will it fit?

    Will a 66 Barracuda heater box fit/work in my 71 Scamp? Im looking to remove my A/C Box and go with just the heater.
