This might sound stupid but do you have the shoes oriented correcty on that one wheel. One shoe having more material bonded to it than the other shoe? Process of elimination .Did you have the drum turned after it got that hot? You might want to check out the T on the rear end it might have crap...
Also if the car as an adjustable pinion snubber (which is unlikely ) but on the chance you do it might be set to high. Is your spare tire and bumper jack etc secured in the trunk? Inspect all bushings ,bolts and brackets . Never hurts to get s wrench on them to make sure they are tight,

It is a basic equation of time vs money. You could put in the time to get what you have put together and running which will always sell for more then a non running car, or put in the time to sell the parts on line swap meets etc and would get a good return money wise. Third option which is the...
I applaud your thoroughness and control of your right foot. most people I have known over the years follow initial break in but then go out and smolder the tires off the rims.
I called them one time asking if they could repair a lifter bore that was out of spec on my 340 and exactly how would they do the repair etc. They ( didn't get to speak to Dave ) said they could but would have to see the engine, and that would be answered during the rebuild process after clean...
Dreamer I am really sorry to hear about your daughter's medical issues and the stress that you must be dealing with, the car can wait and can be replaced if it had to be. Our children are priceless and do what ever you need to to be there for your daughter. My daughter was diagnosed with a...
The way I see it is you can go several ways. Restore it as it was ordered, when was the last time you saw a 383 challenger with a 2 barrel carb? OR the other direction is make it what you want it to be for you, especially if you plan on keeping it. Throw two more sets of 2 barrel carbs, and a MP...
I just want to say that B.J auctions is not for the drivers and fabricators of cars. They are for investors and speculators, and those who wish to expand there investment portfolios. So to build these clone cars. unless you own a shop and pay hire help that's cheap, any restoration is going to...
Outstanding is an understatement. I wish you luck in your search and I hope your future projects turn out just as nice, I think you will have a hard time improving on what you already have done. Walter P. has got to be looking down on you and your car with pride and approval.
Hello - I have a 1970 challenger 340 4 speed car that I might be willing to part with if the terms were right. I probably wouldn't consider this except we are both in Ca. so lets talk and see what we can put together if your interested.
they are all correct. the assembly is the torque shaft, with 2 ball studs 1 on the bell housing the other on the frame (body) (yes I know uni body cars no frame) , nylon washers and seals. Everything is available at brewers performance very affordable. I also bought the throw out bearing kit...
Claudia - would you have a driver side outer door handle and a headlight switch for a 1970 challenger, hell while I'm asking, headlight bezels, and a 4 speed center consul ? thanks
