    Who's running an AGM battery in a weekend driver?

    36 free replacement, most batteries do not offer a pro rate anymore. Mopar and motorcraft are free replacement only. As with some other brands

    AGM batteries are they worth it on our older mopars or best left for modern?

    Hey everyone was just curious on whos running a agm battery on their mopar. I have a mopar group 34 flooded battery now and have had no issues but like the idea of a agm battery where there is no battery acid to spill. Any issues running a agm with the electrical system? I think ive read where...

    Got my headlight relay harness from @crackedback. Decided to mount the fuses and relays under the battery box. Also wrapped all the wires in friction tape to match my existing wiring. Also had a couple spots where the wiring was a little jumbled but straightened it out and got it cleaner routed...

    intake gasket is sweating coolant?

    Ok just a update, i checked the heads, china walls and intake with a straight edge, no noticeable gaps, there was a very slight light gap when i got to the rear of the intake flange where the rear water ports would be, i could barely see light through in a spot but i doubt its even measurable...

    intake gasket is sweating coolant?

    all the bolts are the same length, the 4 on the outer corners are 1-1/4” deep, the intake flange is about 3/4” thick and the bolts are 1-5/8”

    intake gasket is sweating coolant?

    Also fwiw i dont know what brand intake gaskets the engine builder used but they were the same shape as the felpro, were black and seemed like a paper maybe composite gasket, they didnt put any sealant around the water jackets and they had put some red tacky stuff on the head and used some type...

    intake gasket is sweating coolant?

    You should have felt how much my heart sank when i saw the little bit of coolant residue, im like come on! And i have been tedious about checking for coolant the last 2 months since i put it back together.

    intake gasket is sweating coolant?

    Im thinking im going to make a dowel for each corner to guide the intake on and make sure it is centered as good as possible. Me and dad got it super close last time but did have to finesse it a little to get a few of the bolts to start

    intake gasket is sweating coolant?

    hey im just askin, this is a new one on me. I havent built engines or put them together so you guys know the little gremlins better than me. I have no explanation why, and i have tried to logically think of all the possibilities. i will check the intake, heads and block with a straight edge...

    intake gasket is sweating coolant?

    So im wondering if that is oil and it migrated to the water passages and oil residue had mixed with the #2 gasket sealant causing it to separate maybe thats what caused the coolant to sweat out the gasket?

    intake gasket is sweating coolant?

    So what yall are saying is that possibly oil made its way up through the bolts and soaked the gasket? Only thing on the bolts when i took them out was thread sealant.

    intake gasket is sweating coolant?

    Also not sure if will make a difference but the edelbrock gaskets are .060 thick and the felpro steel core gaskets are .065 thick. The original gaskets that were in there from the rebuild appeared to be about the same thickness as both the edelbrock and felpro gaskets.

    intake gasket is sweating coolant?

    i understand that and i tried to prevent it from leaking. Im guessing the #2 gasket sealant doesnt work well on the intake gasket? I used it on my thermostat and water pump gasket with no problems. I figure it would have on the intake, im going to use rtv this time and we shall see. I know you...

    intake gasket is sweating coolant?

    i cant get a consistent instruction on the gaskets. On the instructions for the intake it says to only use gasgacinch on the head and head side of the gasket. On the edelbrock intake gasket instructions it says to use gasgacinch on the head and head side of the gasket and rtv around the coolant...
