I think the best way is to be up front and say it's a duplicate. Especially if selling it down the road. There's always a couple things a "reproduced" fender tag won't have over an original. That's why when buying a high dollar car, you're best to have someone with a lot of knowledge there to...
Welcome to FEBO from the desert! Nice looking 70 Challenger! Trivia for you, the 225 slant six is the only engine that didn't change anything when Chrysler made some of the industrial engines. Hard to kill and last a long time. Enjoy it and do what you what with it! 🙂
Yeah, without it in the car and the wheels on the ground, you won't notice the difference with or without the pump working. But when it's altogether and on the ground, you'll know whether or not it's working. Chrysler power steering takes a lot of muscle when the pump isn't working! 🙂
Since the seats can be pulled by removing four nuts from under the vehicle, I'd pull the driver's seat and see what's wrong. I'm 6'3" and my factory seat in my 70 Challenger goes back just far enough! 🙂
I'm a cheap SOB and use a ZDDP additive to Walmart oil. Just pour a little out of a five gallon jug, add the additive and shake it like a can of paint and pour it in. But I like the other options with Zinc and Phosphorous too. Keep in mind, my 70 Challenger has 250,000+ mile on it. It needs a...
I have two choices I feel from my experiences was appropriate, 240 (not max wedge 270) Trick Flows for a hot rod and 440 Stealth for a mild hop up or stock type engine. Some companies have the reputation they have for a reason. Trick Flow has developed a great set of performance big block Mopar...
@Juan Veldez make sure when you order from Mancini, you call them to place the order and ask the appropriate questions regarding your rotating assembly. If they don't have it in stock, ask for a worst case estimate of them delivering it. They're pretty great. There's a reason they're one of the...
Next they'll tell you they have everything but the crankshaft! Sorry, couldn't resist. I understand your frustration. Thanks for the heads up on dealing with Scat Enterprises!
Honestly, if checked out by a competent cylinder head machine shop, they'd probably work fine!
If it were me, I'd buy Trick Flow 240 heads for a performance engine. Or 440 Source Stealth heads for a mild build engine to get the factory look.
First off (others may disagree), I'd never run aluminum rocker arms on anything but a dedicated race car! For the street, you need steal or ductile iron.
Look at PRW rocket arms...
