    IIRC When you remove screws that hold top to main body, there is one screw in center that has head on bottom of throttle plate.

    Thermoquad vs Holley - losing hair -Help!!

    If you are taking it apart, look at a diagram of carb first. There is a screw in center of carb that is hiding from view (I think head is on bottom of carb). Do not pry top off the plastic bowl. There is a Dodge TSB for Thermoquad that is on the website for Hamtramck Mopar site Section 14...

    Plan of Attack

    When you redo electrical, I would recommend bypassing the ammeter. Run a #10 or #8 wire from alternator to battery stud on starter relay. Include a fusible link in the wire too. This is a safety mod to reduce possible fire from bad connection on bulkhead connectors. This is the MAD method...

    73 Cuda Front End Surprises.

    You can adjust the freeplay in the steering gearbox also. That will help with steering wheel play. Sorry didn't see pages 2 & 3 before I posted. Great work on repairing the rust rot also.

    a challenging situation lol

    There are vin numbers stamped on body in various places, like radiator yoke, rear window/trunk frame, and maybe more. You should research that and find what is required to legally register that car before you sink money into it. If it's a strip only car, you're ok w no title.

    Transmission Rebuild/ Upgrade

    If you have 500 lb-ft torque, you should have the 727 TQ built w good clutches and shift package you want. If you keep the 3.23 rear gear, you shouldn't need OD. If you want the OD then get a Keisler Auto w OD (a modified GM trans made to fit mopar engines). I think the Keisler auto will fit...

    Whats the best smallblock engine combo for maximum hp on pump gas naturally aspirated

    For a normally aspirated small block, you can have one from column a and one from columm b. By that you can get 500 hp from a 340 with super ported heads and high duration/high lift cam and rev it to 7000-7500 rpm. But that takes good valve train and tuning and maybe race gas. Or put a 4"...

    1970 318 Grand Coupe to 440 6-pak Conversion

    There has been quite a discussion of leaf springs and vendors on For A bodies only site. Do search on that site. Depends on your intentions for the car on the lift. If it's a mostly driver and stock looking don't get the lift, keep it stock height. It will have better handling and to my...

    will 727 with reverse manual shft work on street

    If shifter has park and will shift automatically, then no reason not to drive on street. If it won't auto shift, then more of a pain. You can put standard pattern valvebody in it too.

    1972 cuda

    Good idea to remove spark plugs and squirt some Marvel Mystery Oil in cylinders (or whatever magic oil you prefer). Then crank engine over without spark plugs until you get oil pressure. Then if everything seems ok, put in plugs and start it. It has worked good for me.

    For the trunk floor pan and driver floor pan, best to get new metal from AMD. Probably just as cheap and less hassle.
