    1971 Valiant 4dr, V8 Auto

    Sadly, I have to part with my '71 Valiant, as I live in a condo now, and just don't have anywhere to work on it anymore. It's located up here in Everett Washington, and it's a good running car. Here's a link: http://seattle.craigslist.org/sno/cto/1769097502.html

    Rallye Wheel Center Bore?

    I don't have one handy, so does anyone know the center bore diameter of a stock Mopar Rallye wheel? I'm thinking it's 2.75", but like I said, I don't have a wheel with me.

    G-Y Eagle ST age?

    I'm looking at buying a set of 215/70-14, Goodyear Eagle ST tires, to run on stock, 14 x 5.5" Rallye wheels. I remember seeing these tires quite a bit on cars in the 80's and 90's, but haven't ran across them in years. Anyone have an idea on how old these might be? The guys selling them...

    How Much Compression?

    My 318 2 barrel engine is supposed to be rebuilt, to stock specs. I have started gathering some speed parts, in hopes of gaining a little more performance out of it. If I do a compression test, how much PSI should I expect? I want to tear into the engine, and do a cam/lifter/valve spring...

    Wrong Alternator?

    So my alternator's voltage output was low. So, I went to my trusted local auto parts store, and got a rebuilt untit. Well, the dang thing doesn't fit. I had to shorten the long spacer that goes between the mounting ears, because the dimensions were different than the stock alternator. I got...

    Bench seat cover, on a 4 door?

    So my '71 Valiant's front bench seat has torn, and abused upholstery. When looking through the online seat upholstery catalogs, I can't find a match for my front seat, becuase it has the center fold down arm rest. I can find a call out for a Duster, with the center arm rest, but my seat is...

    Valiant color choice?

    So, everyone dogs me about the gold color of my 1971 Valiant. It's bad enough that it's a 4 door, but the color really adds to the "old people" car effect! The interior is an off-white color, and the torn seats need new covers. My daughter likes Hemi Orange, and I like a lot of the newer...

    SBP Rally Center Caps?

    I need a set of 4, small bolt pattern, 5 on 4", Mopar rally wheel center caps. These do not have to be new, or in pristine shape. I'm looking to just drive with these, they're not for a show car. Thanks, Dave

    Intermittent starting?

    So, I had a problem a few weeks back, when my '71 Valiant wouldn't turn over, as in the starter wasn't getting any power to it. I let it sit a few days, and tried it again, and it started fine, and has kept on starting, until today. So this morning, it did it again to me, I put the key in, and...

    Smallest non-Magnum head chambers?

    I have a 1971 Valiant, with a stock 318 2brl engine, that was rebuilt by the previous owner. I would like to add some performance, via headers, cam, intake & carb, and want to get some better flowing heads. What heads can I add, that have a small enough combustion chamber to keep the comp...

    Best street susp setup?

    I have a lowly 1971 Valiant 318 V8 4 door, that I plan to do a resto mod on. The stock suspension is sagging badly, and it sits way to low for my liking. Whats a good set of rear springs, front torsion bars, and shocks for this beast, to both restore its ride height, and give it some firmer...
