And if you ever want to get the digital fan controller, you'll need to have it in a spot where you can reach it to hold down the set button while you turn on the key. The DD instrument cluster comes with a toggle switch for this same purpose but the fan controller has a button. Odd to me why I...
In addition to what's been said; be sure to check the integrity of the wiring harness under the dash, engine compartment, and all the way back through the trunk. With it all out you may want to upgrade the system to handle the loads of today's equipment the factory never forsaw. I have a 1970...
Bottom line is to TAKE YOUR TIME with the process. Work the aluminum gently until it fits nicely into the plastic housing. At that point the tabs will align properly with the slots in the housing. I removed the standard instrument cluster in my Challenger and went to the rallye style (using...
Yeah to each their own. I enjoyed manual trans until my knee started to give out in stop & go traffic and I was not sure I would get home. A well built automatic with shift kit & nice converter is a blast to drive, probably weighs a lot less, and can be driven by my wife... well maybe!
If you want to keep the system 100% original then you'll need to replace the canister. If originality is not important to you then I would remove the vent lines going to the carb and plug them. Get a fuel filter to replace the one you currently have (that just has an in and out nipple) with the...
Personally I would not mess with the canister. I would either install a fuel filter with a return line (preferred) or use a pressure regulator with a bypass port. I would disconnect the vapor return line at the tank and get some compressed air and blow that line out. No telling how many little...
When I wired my Duster the firewall opening for the connector block was used for the new block that comes with the kit. When installed the stock under dash ac system hit the new block. Not sure about E bodies. OE wiring will not work with the new kit, with few exceptions. You may be able to wire...
I have a 72 Challenger with a fuel tank that has emission tubes that are capped off. It does not have the vapor separator if it ever had one. I want to install a fuel pressure regulator that has a bypass so I can send excess fuel back to the tank. The tank fuel level sender does not have a...
For very tight clearance between the radiator and water pump snout the Hayden 2947 is the ticket. I don't agree with the writer that the mech fan is more efficient than elec fans. At very low speeds or stuck in traffic in hot weather airflow thru the rad is at minimum with mech fans and is where...
I installed the aaw kit into my 70 duster. At first it was absolutely overwhelming. Million miles of wire and connectors was staring me in the face. I only used a volt/ohm meter. In a couple of cases I had to use butt slices but had those on hand. I also bought several rolls of wire wrap to make...
Only relevant to need the heat riser if using the OE style carb with divorced choke (in manifold) in cold climates. Aftermarket carbs have electric chokes that are independent. Some later divorced chokes had electric assist elements too which would also negate the need for the riser and open...
Your decision on what to run, but I use Progression Ignition distributors in my cars. The timing is adjusted via bluetooth on your phone and can be adjusted on the fly. No more changing springs & bushings. Not much more money than the name brand distributors that still need tuning to run...
I also put a PI distributor on my 408 (360 magnum) stroker in my 70 Duster. I am using the male tower style cap instead of the female style. With that setup I also am using a Blaster 2 coil. Combo runs great. Not sure how much room you have between the back carb and the distributor on your 6...
None whatsoever. I am using trickflow heads and had concern with fitment. The PI folks said I could get it and if it did not fit they would take it back. You could contact them and see if they have any info on fitment with the heads you are using.
Though expensive, I use the progression ignition distributor system. I have it on my 512 and runs great. Tuning the curve is all via bluetooth. Simple installation. You will need a better aftermaket coil. I use a 50k e coil I got from blueprint engines.
