Welcome from another PNW member. :welcome:

So far, have done pretty much everything myself, which is why my car is still qualifies as ratty after owning it for 36 years.

I don't have an added temp gauge, just the standard one equipped in the rally dash, which does not have any degree readings. It has a "C" and and "H" and an interior band to show the normal operating range. It was pointing toward the higher end of the interior band. Example pic in the ebay...

:rofl: Sorry to hear about your experience, but glad to hear the ABC Moparts is still making E-Body dashpads and was able to get you a nice pad.

Checked my car out this morning after returning from a cars-n-coffee meet up. Using my IR thermometer I saw varying temps ranging from 450 to well over 600 degrees on each side. Hottest point seemed to be where the runner from the third cylinder back (5 and 6) comes into the main trunk of the...

If you car is loosing coolant when parked, it's probably because you are overfilling it. It should be filled to just cover the tops of the fins, with the upper tank left empty to allow expansion. You don't need to fill it to the base of the cap like newer cars that use a separate expansion...

@jamesroney I also have a 70 Cuda 383 4-speed car. I'm running the factory 906 heads, stock intake with Holley 650 DP, and stock exhaust manifolds with full exhaust (mufflers and resonators from Accurate Exhaust), 26 radiator, so should be pretty comparable to your setup. I plan to have it...

Have you checked to confirm whether the manifold heat control valve on the passenger side exhaust manifold is open?

Looks like a solid and well priced project. Good luck with the sale.

@dusterdave79 How much do you want for the rear license plate?

To answer your question, if you have a mechanical fuel pump then the electrical system does not control anything that is fuel related. Your issues are not related.

Nice work, that's impressive! :thumbsup:

Nice work @MoparCarGuy ! Way to go above and beyond!:thumbsup:

I'd guess that is an aftermarket balancer. You can make or buy and piston stop to confirm where TDC is. The line that goes all the way across the balancer edge in your photo is probably TDC. The lines that go 3/4 of the way across are probably 10-degree increments (should be spaced about 5/8...

I had my original AM converted to AM/FM and added a jack to connect to my phone. Electro-Tech Service 1

Don't just tell us that the timing was set and checked, tell us where it is set.

Welcome aboard and congrats on getting your Cuda back! Would be cool to see it back in Day 2 form from '78!

:welcome: Welcome aboard Nick! Would be great to have access to your wealth of experience with engine building and all things classic Mopar muscle.

Following up on this. I ordered the shifter boot from Detroit Muscle Technologies that I linked in my initial post. It is MUCH more pliable than the previous Mopar licensed replacement that I bought, and feels more like my original shifter boot. No more issues popping the shifter out of...
