I used Their K Member and upper control arms. Very Pleased. The K Member provides much more access underneath, which was good for my car with some modifications

I know this is an older post, but I see others are having same problem I had. I have the 2" headers setup in my 72 with a 440. I ended up shortening the shifter Z bar (floor shifter type) by cutting out a small section (about 1/4"+/-) and rewelding it. Be careful that you don't take so much out...

Clean removal. Looking good.

Okay Quapman, you were right. O ring was not necessary. I cut it off then pounded dipstick in deeper by inserting a phillips screwdriver in dipstick tube; problem solved. My oil pan leak ended up being from ARP main cap studs on rear cap. As you can see in following pics, the studs were hitting...

Yep aftermarket. It's just a small o ring at the block

Another update. Engine is level again thanks to QA1 K-member. Firm Feel power steering box is awesome. I thought I might have a rear main seal leak due to moderate amount of oil on driveway after running it. Using dye and black light, I found that rear main seal is okay, but I have 6...

Yanked the Power steering gear box and shipped it to Firm Feel. Apparently I cant get the faster ratio setup due to TTI headers interference, so I just went with stage 2 box for firmer feel.I have also found that my spacers on driver side k-member prevented the steering column from installing to...

I used moparleos guy...Bruce Somer. Look at my restoration thread there are before after pics there. He did a beautiful job. Very meticulous guy

Welcome and have fun. There are a lot of great restoration threads to choose from here and members with great knowledge. Also good source for some of the parts. Good luck and have fun.

TH Thanks Again. I'm going to do just that. Part number for the Corvette PCV and for a modified 440 appear to be the same Spectre Performance 4298. I will post a followup when I receive it and get it installed. I think it will actually help idle slightly and stop the breather from spitting.

Thanks DetMatt1 / Quapman I get the need for PCV system...However it is impossible to find info on what is the correct PCV valve to use. Yes there is a $129 adjustable option by M.E. Wagner (too much for my taste). I don't really want to try trial and error with the hundreds of PCV valves out...

First time driven on the road since 1982. List of to do after first day of driving - Replace leaking power steering box - Adjust Lokar cables/carb bracket. After first run apparent that my home made bracket needs slight alteration to get proper kickdown adjustment and line pressure. - some...

no problem with PM. I just drove the car today for the first time. Amazing. Only two real problems were power steering box ( the one part I gambled on working without restoration. What a bad idea) and the Rock Auto heater core leaked horribly. Two jobs I dont look forward to re-doing. I think...

Heres some photos of recent work. Had an old Charger driveshaft cut down to 45.6 and balanced by JE Reel Pomona, Ca. Looks good. Painless Classic wire loom to protect/hide wiring Griffon Radiator with Summit overflow bottle. Installed aux fuse panel and relays for fans and Fuel pump. Probably...

Sorry, Wife put me on a Mopar time out for the holidays (lol). It took a few months, but Laysons came through with proper clips for front Grille trim. (Laysons Part number: 356-40713--- Description:Grill molding clip for Challenger grill upper molding part #PM-MM649 Front Grills / Grill Mldgs...

Love the story; love the car. Please keep us updated as you are able. looks like one to follow.

Shims in place. I was afraid to go any lower. They did provide more clearance for driver side header, but it is still not as much clearance as the passenger side, which could be QC by TTI. As you can see in the pic of level setting on carb it is still slightly off level. Prior to shim it was...

Okay....I tried shimming and swapping insulators again to no avail. Shims moved engine too far to driver side and caused header to contact the steering box. At my wits end. I'm about to try Moparleo's suggestion about spacing the K Member a little lower. Has anyone tried this before. Does it...

entered in error

Okay, I thought about that moparleo, but wasnt sure how prudent that idea was. Like you said, I think that will be my last resort. I' m gonna pull the mounts one more time, modify them slightly, shim the passenger side and then try the washers on the Drivers side K-Member if that doesnt work...
