OK, I'm always recommending certain parts for people. That's because they are usually what I use. Here is a photo of part of one shelf in my garage. See what all you can identify. Come along and gas cans don't count. 😀 Yes I'm a hoarder of engine parts for Mopars. And every box has in it what it...

My wife loves Eeyore!

Hey guys, as you all probably know, my parents used to have an Imperial and I regretted not taking it when they tried to give it to me (bad brakes). But know I'm in the process of buying a 64 Imperial money pit. I joined FCBO as Xcudame, so any of you guys that are on both sides, let me know. I...

Hey, I was just thinking about the Hemi Ball-Stud engine that Chrysler was considering to replace all big blocks with. As we know there were only a handful of the 444 cubic inch version built and tested. With two surviving, one that Tom Hoover had and one the I think the Chrysler museum has...

Since it is hot and kinda humid here in Southeastern Arizona, when grilling tri-tip, a 22 ounce strawberry margarita certainly helps! More Mopar power to you!

Thought I'd post some photos of different Mopar Big Block driver's side headers that I have. They are Hooker Competition (black painted), Doug D451 (383/400) and TTI 1 7/8" ceramic coated. By the way, the foot in the one photo belongs to Heminut! Notice that cylinder number one tube goes into a...

OK, from my experience with non automotive casting houses, no one keeps track of mold revisions. They do add -# to distinguish which mold was used to cast a part. Also, it's my understanding that what most of us call casting numbers are actually engineering numbers. Below are some pictures of...

I know this isn't an E-Body question, but my son has saved up some money and is looking to buy a used newer Challenger with a loan through his credit union. I'm thinking a 2015 or newer R/T with the 5.7 hemi and automatic. I'd love to hear from you folks who have a newer Challenger and if...

So a while ago I picked up a 1970 industrial 413 for $150. My original intention was just to keep the crank and rods to use in other projects. My son and I tore it down three days after I got it and it's a good thing we did. Water had gotten into the engine and the oil pan was mostly water!! The...

When you own a car for most of your life and it's a daily driver as well, you become emotionally attached. I bought my 70 Challenger in the fall of 1987. Nothing remarkable eye catching except the Top Banana paint and 14 rallye wheels. Someone had removed the white vinyl top and spray painted it...

Question, what would be considered a mid-year mopar? I ask, because some things changed mid-year and sense I bought my 71 Barracuda as a rolling shell, I'm trying to figure out which parts to buy. The build date is May 5th (Cinco de Mayo). This would definitely be mid-year?

OK, thought of a fun topic that us Mopar nuts can all chime in on. Compared to other cars of the same year, our Mopar cars were much superior. After all, why are we here on this forum. So I thought I'd start listing a few items why our Mopars are better. Feel free to add more reasons and expand...

I'd like to get peoples opinions regarding vinyl tops. Both my 70 Challenger and 71 Barracuda were originally vinyl top cars. Challenger's roof is currently painted white, but I have the correct vinyl top in a box. I'm thinking painting the roofs with multiple coats of paint. Maybe spray on...

As an owner off a 1970 Challenger Western Sport Special for 35+ years, I have read probably just about everything on these cars. Everyone is familiar with the A91 package contents, so no need to rehash them again. I have learned a couple things that makes sense. One, a lot of these WSS cars had...

Hello all. Another old mopar guy. Every vehicle I own is mopar. 70 challenger WSS with numbers match 383. 71 Barracuda with 440. 89 Dodge Cummins (the beast). 96 Neon. 98 Dakota 5.2 Magnum SLT. 2007 Jeep Liberty. 2014 Chrysler 300c hemi (wife's car). And a 2019 Cherokee Trailhawk. I've owned my...
