I use SAE 140 regular gear oil rated GL-4. It is a little clunky shifting for the first few minutes/miles, but that goes away as soon as everything is warm. I love everything about it but the noise. jt

Ign coil mounting brackrt (?)

I have the 4spd OD in my 70 Challenger and have put approx. 10K miles on it with no problems. I built the transmission myself, only purchasing the gearset and 3/4 shift rod from JP. The gear spacing/rpm drop between the gears is excellent and the .8 OD makes my 3.54 Dana think it's a 2.8 gear...

It's very possible, but I did make my own brackets by modifying the factory bracket to fit the Sanden compressor. jess in ky 440/6, Sanden a/c compressor, how I did it....

You're correct, final scenes in the movie, it was very obvious. I doubt any of the cars used in the film were viewed as valuable after they were through with them, it was 1970, they, and many others like them were everywhere. As special as they are now, seems impossible that they were "just a...

Anyone have a couple of pics that illustrate the difference in early and late hinge covers? jess

Yes sir. jess

Neither actually, car was dipped in grey primer up to about the door handles. All the paint the underside received was overspray from painting the sides, rockers, etc. Some did receive optional undercoating, probably the black stuff you are seeing under your Satellite. Some restorers go to great...

I have a set for sale, though they are dated a little early to be "date code correct" for an E body. PM me for more info. jess in ky

Pull both tires and measure the length (both sides, from bushing to ball joint) of each upper control arm. Inspect the mounting points of each upper control arm, compare from side to side. These cars are 50 years old, lots can happen. jt

Hello SCHU: I searched through the restoration pics of my car and these are the best I could find of what you are searching for, hope they are of some help to you. In the first pic you can see the bottom of the "dual exhaust" dr side hanger at the very top of the pic. The "welded on" hanger on...
