they may not have revised the tech drawing after 1971. I cannot find one. And it makes sense, a change they made in 1971 could stick through the end of life of the car line (1974), unless they made a further third change and refinement. for your 1973, it may be safe to set it up as the 1971...
yes, the large oval baseplate on the 440-6, 426-8 and other shaker systems, was indeed a problem for the 2-speed wiper motor, and a/c compressor. some of them resulted in a notched baseplate to make them play nicely together. most shakers with baseplate included rallye dash and 3-speed wiper...
yea, I think so. the metal bracket I posted an image of, may be 1970 only, and the plastic circular ones 1971 only.
according to my interpretation of the tech drawing.
agreed. the lower flat clip is in the engineering tech drawing for the remote control mirror. and one plastic circular clip. they may not have issued a revised drawing for 1973, etc, if the moved to two plastic circular clips.
the flat "clip" may be part number 6023559
but the "cable guide...
wait, cables not long enough? Have you confirmed you're not installing an A-body or B-body remote mirror? They look pretty similar to the E-body ones, but there are variations in the stanchion (mirror pedestal) angles and dimensions.
I googled and looked. I am sure they are made repro. gotta figure out what they are called. roseville, classic industries, and others will have them maybe in the electrical sections as wire loop holders.
round clips? hmm
what I think I recall: on the 1970 barracuda (for example), the "remote control" rallye mirror, painted or chrome, the cables feed through a hole on the door's outer shell, and the mirror is screwed into place atop a rubber gasket fitting the footprint of the mirror. Inside...
I'm not sure I've ever seen a chart. regardless of precise length or configuration, many of these belts will function in other cars. for example, the 3508 304 71+ C body front lap will function just fine, even if it has the extra shoulder buckle, in the E-body convertable. Not precisly...
yea, it's a different vibe than here. I like the site, and it has resources this site doesn't have, such as videos, howtos, pdf documents of all kinds, fender tag decoder, etc.
they allowed the hacker(s) to hack for weeks. and lately, the hacker has been making nasty and misleading posts attempting to divert attention and confuse. a drama is playing out. it's unclear who the winners are. though.

Pinging won't damage much if in the garage, revving it up. Under genuine load, like a freeway onramp, or quarter mile run, that is more prolonged and different. But in the driveway, if it pings under any condition, you can test and correct without fear of any permanent damage. it's that...
