    What brand radiator are you guys using to cool your 440?

    Good luck getting that to fit on a big block a body. VERY little room between the water pump and radiator.

    What brand radiator are you guys using to cool your 440?

    Ran a 4 row 22" Champion when I first put my 440 into my Dart. Kept it cool. When I stroked it and upped the compression it couldn't keep up. Moved to 26" 2 row from cold case and it fixed my cooling issues.

    Best (INDOOR ONLY) car cover?

    Covercoft Custom Form-fit cover is the best indoor only cover I've seen/used personally. Came with my Viper and its perfect for keeping dust off the car. Purchased one for the 69 Charger and 04 Ram SRT and they both fit perfectly and look great. I've had several CalCarCover out door covers...

    Tti 2" header pics

    Doesnt from what I've seen posted. Should be able to see some threads where guys damn near flatten some tubes to get things to fit even with a borgeson. I know I'm choking the motor off with the Schumaker Tri-Ys but its tight enough with even their tiny primaries.

    Billet Specialties Thermostat Housing?

    I moved to the billet specialties housing and haven't had a leak or issue since. When I needed to change out the thermostat I wanted to change the o-ring just to be on the safe side. Summit wanted damn near the price of a housing just for the o-ring! Went to McMasterCarr and found the right...

    727 Hard to Roll backwards

    And thats what A&A said as well. Thats why they want to hear back once the car is back on the ground and under its own power. I figure the hardest part for me with the car is getting the transmission out, not so much worried about rebuild cost or time to do the rebuild, its having to remove...

    727 Hard to Roll backwards

    One last follow up before I parking lot this concern until after the brakes are on. With the driveshaft still in the transmission but out of the rear I took a 2ish foot long prybar in the u-joint area on the driveshaft and was able to turn the transmission both ways (still really stiff in one...

    727 Hard to Roll backwards

    No brakes on the car and when I removed the driveshaft the rear spun fine and the trans was still only rotating one way. Called A&A as that was the rebuild kit and bolt in sprag I bought when I did the transmission in 2019/2020. They said based on the transmission working great for the 25-50...

    727 Hard to Roll backwards

    Just noticed I forgot to link the thread I found on here with another person. I the same situation. Sounded like they had a washer that fell out while putting their transmission back together. Laptop I found that thread on is the in shop and I’m not going back out and seeing the gobs of work in...

    727 Hard to Roll backwards

    Went to roll my big block powered dart today and it was VERY hard to move. I was able to push it forward no problem but the tires would squeal when backing up (smooth concrete floor old tires). Jacked the rear up and the tires would spin forward no problem but wont move AT ALL in reverse (just...

    Edelbrock performer heads

    Not shocked there.... their tech support has been spotty since COVID... but thats kinda how most places have been. If you get a hold of a good person write that name down and ask for them by name. Did that with my Pro-Flo install.

    What’s up with R134 prices?

    It has to be a dead empty system. Don't go mixing refrigerants. There are conversion valves for sale as r1234yf take a different hook up. NOW.... converting is no way endorsed by any OEM or EPA BUT does it work... yes.

    What’s up with R134 prices?

    Where are you getting that r1234yf (idk where you're getting the c from ether) operates at a "much higher pressure"? It is true that r1234yf is more flammable than r134a.

    Offset shackles

    Where have you heard that? Several on here doing full autocross and road course racing with offset shackles.

    Offset shackles

    Have you ever heard of google? Prob 100+ threads on this subject on this site alone. Loads doing it, you will have to move your spring perches inboard as well so that mean welding. Not an issue for most but is for others.

    What’s up with R134 prices?

    Yeah 134A hasnt been outlawed to purchase but I think they passed a law where new cars have to use the 1234y stuff moving forward. Ether way time to stock up on 134 stuff if you havent done so...

    What’s up with R134 prices?

    Which is why if your system happens to get a leak you just convert it to 134A and call it a day.

    Updated my fuel system

    Ahh ok. Makes sense that a foam product would break down in fuel.... one would think that it would be fuel stable tho.

    Oil coolers

    This is my set up on my 71. Oil on the left, Trans on the right, and Power steering below. Used rivnuts to give it some stand off from the core support. Bracket holding the oil and trans is off the shelf from Derale and I powder coated it Hydo Blue to match the car.

    BEWARE of doing business with 340bird71

    Pretty crazy how few people seem to remember him flooding the for sale section and doing bumps everyday. Could be wrong but I thought he was one of the main reasons to put a cap on bumps and put it behind the gold member wall.

    LED for work shop

    How tall is your ceiling? I have 14' ceilings and installed the UFO style lights meant for a warehouse. They sell different UFO lights based on the hight of the ceiling as they will "tune" the light pattern some. The ones I have are "600w equivalent" and I used 4 in the shop side and 6 to...

    [SOLD] New Ron Francis Wire Kit 1961-1975 Mopar

    One wire alternator, volt meter for the gauge (vs amp). Can’t remember anything else outside of the normal stock stuff. I recall going through this order on the phone with the guys vs online order form trying to make it as simple of a job as possible for myself when it came to do the wiring...

    451 overheating, even when moving

    So generally when racing you're running straight water so if you do have any issues you're not covering the track in antifreeze. I know I missed the part about the car being driven for nearly an hour before with no over heating issues.... Makes me wonder what changed in that time. If things...

    I’m literally asking for the guidelines. Just saying something isn’t reasonable without defining what reasonable is doesn’t help.

    451 overheating, even when moving

    How they are mounted now i’d think they are only able to pull air from where they are mounted on the rad vs if they were mounted on the shroud they can pull from that whole air volume. So right now the shroud is more or less just acting like an insulation box forcing the area behind the rad, but...

    What I think doesn’t really matter does it? I’m not a mod nor do I own the site. There is clearly some “reasonable” price adjustment that the powers that be have in their heads. All I’m asking for is that to be written down so this doesn’t happen again.

    Cool… so no guidelines for folks to work within?

    Lowered Price, Post Deleted

    Who defines reasonable amounts? Whichever mod reviews the post and their mood at the time? If the guidelines are 5% or something cool no worries. Didn’t see any rules, guidelines, or best practices listed out.
