    Old or New Fuel Sender?

    As you can see in your photo, when the float is half way up, the tank wall is set in for spare tire space. the float is half way up, but the fuel level is not. The factory Mopar sending unit is non-linear for this reason. the aftermarket sending units are linear. "Dart67" has been working on a...

    4846S compitition thermoquad

    emailed him and have not heard back anything. But also knew that others here have run them and was just wondering if they are good on the street or not.

    4846S compitition thermoquad

    Am running a slightly modified 850 Thermoquad by Deamonsizzler, have received a 850 competition series, an 4846S T/Q in a trade. Are they any better than the set up I already have, or as I have heard rumors of, not good on the street?

    Thought my pinion seal puked

    If it is a new fuel sender that is leaking, it should be the new, thinner lock ring that would cause it. The gasket is fine. Hopefully the old lock ring is in the trunk with the old sender.

    Thought my pinion seal puked

    Did you just happen to have installed a new fuel sender? The lock ring that comes with a new sender are known to be thinner than stock, so it does not seal as well.

    Tunnelram pro/con

    Just remember for a street car, not to radical of a cam because you will need a reasonable amount of vacuum for the carbs to get a good idle and throttle response, and easier to tune.

    Fuel sending unit calibration

    Most aftermarket sending units are wound with a linear resister. Since our A body's have the spare tire recess in the upper portion of the tank, the factory used a non- linear resister on the sending units. No amount of bending the arm will ever get the gauge to read properly. Either a...

    Where to buy a new Fuel Sending unit.

    The main problem I have with the new senders is that they read linear, the original senders where non linear. If you look at the fuel tank, you will see because of the spare tire inset in the tank , when the fuel level is halfway down the tank, you have actually more than half of the fuel left...

    Cowl intake

    no fuel smell running or when shut down. But usually run the A/C. The only change from when the picture of the dual snorkel was taken, is you could smell oil from breather when running hard, went with stock style breather with hose and end of hose just open under air cleaner. If attached to a...

    Ram air air cleaner breather

    just ran the stock style air breather can with hose attached, the other end of hose open behind carb, no oil dripping, and no oil fumes. may end up with putting small filter on the open end.

    Ram air air cleaner breather

    Was also thinking maybe adding a breather pipe to one of the snorkels facing downstream so as the air is going by it it will "suck" the air from the valve cover breather like a NACA scoop, not push as it is now.

    Ram air air cleaner breather

    Did cyl pressure test about 2 years, 6,ooo miles ago and was 120 wthin 10 across the cyl with very big overlap on cam, didn't do leak down. smaller cam now, when return from work overseas will try leak down test. still no issue at high rpm in lower gear at lower speeds, that was why Iwondered...

    Ram air air cleaner breather

    Have a 67 dart with 360 and modified air cleaner to make it cowl induction ram air, had the air breather hose from valve cover plumbed in in front of the air filter. At 70 mph and 3,000 rpm it pushes oil thru the valve cover gaskets, I'm not happy. Swapped out to K@N valve cover breather, now...
