Thats a valid point too,firstly i am keeping both these mopars ,the duster is fully ready to drive ,all inside and out done just needs 318 out and 408 in.Challenger which is my favourite looking mopar needs body and full interior so its going to be more longer term project .I will always have...

great replies,thank you,yes whichever car gets the 408 in will be better in terms of power to weight etc.My original thoughts was keep the challenger more 'stock' with a classic 383 but with uprated intake headers and carb and let the lighter Duster be a street/strip 'hooligan' more of point to...

Ive found a silicone flexible hose supplier in UK,and if i need to ill swap pump as suggested.

Im using radiator as it is the larger 26" wide a/c type,its in great condition,it fits as does its shroud and it will save me alot $600 as im in UK.I remember afew years ago someone using different hoses to fit a BB.Just need to know which hoses to buy and fit??

I want to use my 26" radiator (318 sb) a/c car on my 383 challenger build ,which hoses do i need and which supplier has them?cheers,Jon

Keep gears and just get an extra set of wheels with 28" tires, bolt on/bolt off depending on where going choose 26" or 28"

Yes put vacuum gauge on and check for steady gauge reading unless camshaft is too extreme.I think it may be electrical as in battery not supplying enough volts to coil.Under load when gear selected revs drop and so does volts to coil.Is it standard mopar ignition system or updated electronic...

Thanks for reply and pictures,they look great,looks like plugs are easy to get at,it seems b-bodys run into afew probs but e bodys are ok with little mods required.

Seen some good reviews on these ceramic coated headers but wanted to make sure before i buy em for my 73 challenger with 440 engine swap,thanks
