My understanding is to mount the front and rear windshield trim clips either flush or just lower than flush for the clips. Is that true for vinyl tops as well? Does anyone have any pictures or measurements for the clips with a vinyl top? Should I wait to install the vinyl top before I drill...

Perfect, thank you so much

Hi all, getting some things done but ran into a problem. The rear glass trim kit comes with centering or alignment clips. There doesn't seem to be a left or right and I'm not sure what they are supposed to do? They have (teeth) on the raised part, what is that for? Where do they go? See pictures...

Strange, they seem to be made for it, even the square cut outs that the tabs go into look factory made. If I had all 4 I would use them but I only have 3. It does show them on the parts manual. Part# 2931 349.

Some underneath pics

Anyone know if these are important? They are thin plates that mount on the bumper brackets, it looks like there should be 4 but like everything else on this car one is missing. I realize I can just omit them but do they serve a purpose? This car will never be a show car, it will be a regular...

Well it's been a few years since I updated this build. Like most people life gets in the way of a good project. I have done a little here and there. I will get some pics out soon. At this point all the rusted sheet metal has been cut out and replaced. The 5.7 Hemi from and old 2013 Chrysler 300...

It looks like they make another engine wiring kit with cats and evap purge solenoid. It's way more expensive but the instructions list the parts needed. https://www.allmoparparts.com/docs/77072453AG.pdf

I am installing a 2014 5.7 from a Chrysler 300 into a 1973 Cuda. I am using the Mopar harness and PCM kit. Has anyone used the purge system? I would rather not just have the tank vent to atmosphere or a charcoal canister that doesn't have a purge valve. How have some of you other guys handled it?

1/4" spacer on each mount and a little trim to the stud and we have clearance. I wish I had waited to order the manifolds, they have the coated ones now cheaper than the raw cast.

They are the same, it's just the pic.

I am considering that

The Proforged lower control arm pivot shafts will work with the factory k-frame but not the QA1 k-frame. The design is just different enough on both to prevent the shaft from seating all the way in. The QA1 uses 2 welded in bushings, a larger and smaller diameter to accept the taper on the pivot...

I am going to try a 1/4" spacer under the motor mount. I am concerned with how it may effect the trany mount. I think I will try and install everything without the steering box and see how it all lines up.
