Great pics! I'm going to get my hood and cowl painted this year as well these pics will help. I also agree that there at least two variations the hood stripes based on the original paint cars that I have seen over the years. I'm also not sure if LA Vs. Detroit were identical either.

That is correct the steering boxes are completely interchangeable on bolting to the K frame, but the 73 and up has the large sector, and thus the flipped center link attachment (see post 29 in this thread)

Pat, the Holley "system" is all designed to work together. By "system" I mean the Holley mounts, (than move the engine forward) , oil pan and headers all based on the 1973 and up spool mount motor mounts, large sector steering box and associated tie rod/center link parts. So....If you have a...

Got a notification on an update to this post today and realized I haven't updated here with my solution. I solved my center link/Idler arm clearance issue with some heating and beating of my Milodon oil pan

I've also been working on the body plumbing - fuel, brake and cooler lines

Car has been in the paint process for quite a while now but here is what I hope is the last test-fit from a few weeks ago. I ended up buying the Holley Mid-mount front accessory drive so I still need to install all that stuff and bolt the engine back in for the last time

Looks like I'm not much better at updates than the OP! here are a few of the recent pics...I've been working on the steering column, plumbing the brake, trans cooler/A/C condenser lines....the engine was "test-fit" hopefully for the last time and my new Milodon oil pan was heat and beat into...

Well, as some of you know, this is my 3G Hemi project and Demon is now home. I'll throw out a few updates as it's slowly going back together. I cleaned up the firewall and roof then added the sound deadener/insulation. Then got the steering column support bolted back in and fit up the new...

SlantedDart, The 72 and older Idler is K7042, the Pitman is K7074. the 73 and up parts are: Idler - K7086 and Pitman - K7076 Those are all Moog part numbers. You mentioned the sector shaft diameter too, I forgot to mention that in my earlier post. the 72 and older have the "small" sector shaft...

I'm not sure about mixing the components since the steering box mounts in the same place on the K frame and the tie rod ends should be similar. HOWEVER, the center link and Pitman/Idler are different. The 72 and older connect with the center link from the bottom (like we have in our pictures...

I have a 6.4 in my 71 Demon using Schumacher mounts on the factory Slant Six K frame. I'm using the Milodon 31000 pan and my center link also has a hard stop on the passenger side of the oil pan when turning right. I'm actually getting ready to order the Holley one and just plan on chopping a...

I don't see why not. The drivers side motor mount on the K frame is the same for either a slant six or V8 (67 - 72 pad mount). The passenger side motor mount is positioned about 1 inch farther outboard on the slant six K frame. I had hoped to use that extra room for an oil filter in the stock...

I bought mine from Schumacher a couple of years ago when they still had them in stock. It looks like they no longer support much but I had heard that US CarTool had picked up the line of mounts and would be making them. However, both Mancini Racing and Classic Industries show them as "coming...

I used a Northern Radiator # 205199 and their fan/shroud assembly #Z40112. I'm happy with the fit and appearance, it seems like a well built unit. I bought it from Yogi's and the whole assembly was was around $625. Northern Radiator | Muscle Car Radiators (Downflow) - 21 3/4 x 21 3/4 x 3 1/8...

GoldSwinger, If that Holley mid mount front accessory drive with the Alternator, P/S pump and A/C compressor setup would have been available a year earlier I would have bought it and saved myself a bunch of pain!
