    Recommendations on new radiator

    Hi everyone. I'm replacing my down flow aluminum radiator because it's about 80% clogged up. I have a 70 Challenger with 383, automatic and Vintage Air a/c. I'm thinking on going with a Griffin aluminum cross flow with dual fans and shroud. Any comments or recommendations are appreciated. Thank you.

    WTB Looking for 727 dipstick

    Thx Blu. Salvage yards are almost non- existent in Cali because of all the environmentalists, regulations, etc. I always had fun back in the day walking thru all the local yards. It was a true treasure hunt.

    WTB Looking for 727 dipstick

    The handle on mine broke off. It's for a 70 Challenger with a 383. Thanks.

    Engine Temp Incresing

    Does my belt setup look correct? Should I run a second belt in the same configuration as the one already on the compressor? Thanks much for the advice.

    How do I remove trim to replace speaker fader switch?

    My friend was able to reach over the top of the steering column behind the dash from the far side and hold it in place while putting the nut on from the outside.

    Engine Temp Incresing

    I recently had cooling problems with my 383. Turns out my radiator cap crapped out. Replaced it with a 16#. Fan clutch also crapped out so replaced that too. Also, replaced my 180 thermostat with a 195. Running cool for now. Summer will be the true test. This is the way my belts are installed...

    Dim light bar for non-rallye cluster

    Fixed the ground and put in some ice blue LEDs and it looks fantastic. The wire on the light on the right was too short to allow me to insert the bulb back in the tube. That's probably why it had a shorter 1445 incandescent bulb in it. Just ordered some shorter LED bulbs. Thanks for all the tips.

    Dim light bar for non-rallye cluster

    Thought of this at first, then ordered what they call ice blue because I was afraid clear might be annoyingly bright. Now, I'm thinking like you. I'll see how the blue works out. They're actually described as ice blue and look lighter than the regular blue so maybe it will look ok.

    Dim light bar for non-rallye cluster

    Thank you moparcarguy, challenger rta, ew1bh27, hemicap, adam and marks ebody! It is very clear to me now. Fantastic links, photos, diagrams and info. Even the fact that Challenger light bars were curved is interesting.

    Dim light bar for non-rallye cluster

    Thanks all. I will check the ground. Also ordered some blue LED bulbs. It was only like $10 for 20 of them on Amazon. I figure if only half of them actually work, I'm still ahead. After ordering them I realized the light bar windows are green. Green and blue makes purple haha. Yes, I have the...

    Dim light bar for non-rallye cluster

    Ok. I thought the non-rallye cluster only had 3 lights and all 3 of mine are pushed into their respective holes. The one with the blue cover looks like it is facing outward and at an angle. I'm totally confused now.

    Dim light bar for non-rallye cluster

    Hi. Got a 70 Challenger. I can't see my speedo/gauges at night. The 3 lights work, but are very dim. They dimmer switch is all the way up. I can dim them to completely off with the switch, so does that mean the switch is OK? The bulbs are #1893 incandescent. Is there some kind of reflector...
