    Upgrading 73 Challenger with 318.

    Go with a 360/5.9 crate motor. Ported and polished heads on a street motor is just $$$ spent with little to no benefit. The engine should be built as a complete unit with parts chosen to compliment each other. Not a little of this and a little of that. Buy a tested combination. Actually...

    1973 Challenger Rear End

    Remember that when it comes to original parts on Mopars, the books are not always 100% accurate. My last 73 Challenger was one owner, original running car . My 318, 73 Challenger came with a 741 pig. If you can find a good 742, it is plenty strong an easier to set up than a .489. Much less...

    Anyone running Cragar SS 15x8's and 275/60/15 tires?

    Some of the pictures may e of cars withut airshocks, but the springs have been changed. The cars when new had a rear end down stance. Exceptions were the AAR and T/A with staggered tire size. Air shocks are a bad Band-aid. New rear springs with a higher arch are the proper way to change rear...

    Opinion on tear in Caliper dust boot

    It keeps dirt, water away from the piston and caliper cavity. Actually the square piston O-ring retracts the piston slightly when brakes are released. When you apply air or fluid to push piston out, put a piece of wood where the pads were to cushion the piston when it pops out. Keep your fingers...

    Just an FYI for the guys who may not know. Optional for 70-71 but will fit all years. As the box indicates, it is a cap cover, not a cap that seals the tank. The cap and the rubber seal that mounts to the cover are separate items.

    Why all the hype? 4 speeds

    Back when I started to drive a radio, heater and A/T were all extra cost add-ons. I don't get the posts here about A/T breaking parts. Every clutch, u-joint, cluster gear, spider gears wear on cars with M/T. Much more control going up and stopping on a hill with an A/T. Torque converters are...
