    Mopars in the Park in Minnesota

    I attended Mopar's in the park in Minnesota and it was a nice show. I did find a guy in Minnesota working / helping the guy in Texas selling dash covers. For a 1973 Cuda 1 speaker $1300.00 + your core. The good part about this is I get to see the dash before buying it. Looks like I can move...

    Head Gasket leak

    I did have the heads Magnaflux tested they are good also for compression. I think the problem was the water passage through the timing chain cover. The fuel pump opening was thick coolant but that was the only location of that. I ended up buying a new timing cover.

    Head Gasket leak

    I have another question for the 1973 Cuda 340. I am going to replace the valve seals and pulled off the old ones but can't seem to find the exact make of the ones I have. there is a small spring on the bottom side around the valve guide for both intake and exhaust ones and a small sleeve around...

    Head Gasket leak

    Well after doing some digging around I found that the exhaust valve is made like that. I think I will still send the heads in and have them check them over for a crack / surface level and valve job if the other 2 check out ok.

    Head Gasket leak

    Thanks Xcudame! My brother in-law said he ground the valves to have a triple seat. They look ok but I was going to do a lap valve job on them to clean up. I need to pull the rest of them yet I will compare them for sure. The Valve is not sliding smooth in or out on that one so it may need to...

    Man the more I look at the more I find. Pulling a few valves and this one looks bad. So you replace all valves if you have a bad one correct? This #1 cylinder exhaust valve looks ready to separate.

    New from WNC

    Welcome to the site! I still have my first car 1955 210 2 door when I was 15. My Dad picked it up for $600.00 it was just a shell but solid. Worked with my Dad to get it all together and running it was fun. I now have a 1973 Cuda from my Brother in-law, he bought it off the show room floor new...
