I fired my engine up tonight and at idle it ran fine. It had plenty of fuel in the see through fuel filter. After a quick ride around the block, I noticed that the see through filter was dry and the car stalled. So I am having a fuel supply problem. The pump is brand new from NAPA. The tank was...

I tried taking my kids out last night for ice cream in the Challenger. I fired the car up and let it come up to temp in my driveway. Then we left and got about a mile from home. The car just shut completely off. Just died as I was driving it. My fuel guage was low and we were headed to get gas...

OK so I have a 73 Challenger. The car has 4 lights in the rear. 2 outside lights which serve as brake, turn signal, and running lights. My 2 inside lights have a red lens on the outside and a white lens on the inside. The white lens is obviously for back up lights. But the light socket that's...

I have a 69 440 HP motor in my 73 Challenger. It has 906 heads with a hydraulic cam. Don't know the specs on the cam but it's not a stocker. I'd say about half way between totally radical and bone stock. A nice lope but still pulls nice vacuum. The motor has great oil pressure and pulls...

I have a 69 440 in my 73 Challenger. I'm running 69 B body HP exhaust manifolds. I know that the exhaust flange is clocked differently on the passenger side and I've already dealt with that. The passenger side head pipe is installed with no problems. The driver side head pipe hits the arm of...

I bought my Challenger in October. It's my first Musclecar in about 5 years. I got out of Musclecars for a little while when my 2nd child was born because we wanted to move into a bigger home. I branched off into 5.0 Mustangs for a short while due to the fact that they are V8, stick shift...

I'm never gonna have my 6 pack set up ready for my 440 by spring. So I've decided to do a 4bbl set up this year and go with the 6 pack for next year. I'll be running an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake and an Edelbrock 750 carb. I notice that the Performer RPM has no provisions for a...

OK so I've been doing my engine over this winter. I removed the beat up old crusty headers that were on the car and went back to a set of factory HP manifolds. I see that Year One sells 2-1/2" head pipes for the 440 6 pack Challengers and I was wondering if anyone has used these? I'm thinking...

Hey guys, I have a 69 440 six pack in my 73 Challenger. My center carb was leaking fuel so I pulled all 3 carbs for a rebuild. At the same time I decided to pull off the Edelbrock aluminum 6 pack intake because it was stained with old fuel. I'm having it glass beaded and powdercoated before...

OK I scored a nice clean set of 69 B body HP manifolds for my 440 Challenger. I'll be installing them soon once the engine is finished being detailed. I also ordered a set of Fel-Pro exhaust manifold gaskets as well as the manifold bolt kit with the stainless steel sleeves. What's the scoop...

I'm detailing the engine in my Challenger. Once the engine is finished being detailed it's going to receive a fresh tune up for spring. I'm doing the whole boat. Plugs, cap, rotor, and wires. The engine is a 69 440 with 906 heads and a 6 pack. What brand plugs will run well with this...

21 years ago tonight, I was sitting in a fighting hole in the Saudi desert during Operation Desert Shield on high alert because word had traveled down that Saddam Hussein might possibly have ordered an attack on Christmas Eve as a way to demoralize US troops. Please guys as you spend the next...

I've decided to remove the crappy headers that are on my Challenger. They're really beat up and leaking in several spots. For now I've decided to go back to a set of factory manifolds. $700.00 for a set of headers is just a little too rich for my blood right now, especially since my car needs...

First a little history on my car....it's a 73 Challenger that I purchased from the son of the original owner. The car's VERY solid. It's an original 340 4 speed car but the original 340 has been replaced with a 440 6 pack. It's still a 4 speed car and it has an 8-3/4 rear with posi and 4:10...

OK so there is a pad on the front of my engine up at the top by the intake. It has some numbers on it but I can't quite make them out. I definitely see a 440. Is there anywhere else I can look to find the numbers that will ID my block?

Hey guys I have a 73 Challenger with a 69 440 and a 6 pack. Currently the car has a beat up old set of headers that are leaking not only at the head but also somewhere down below. The headers and the exhaust are all beat up since the car sat for 4-5 years and it all MUST go. So my question is...

Hi guys, I just brought home my first Mopar Musclecar in over 20 years. Many years ago I had a really nice 340 Duster and I've had other brands including 2 GTO's, a 442, and a few Chevelles. So I'm no stranger to cars. That being said I've always liked the Mopars but prices were so...

Hello all, I'm brand new to the site. After almost 20 years I am back in a Mopar Musclecar. Yesterday I brought home a 73 Challenger. I got it from the son of the original owner. The car was restored in 2004 with new quarters and new paint. The original 340 was removed and replaced with a 440...
