    1973 Cuda 340 overheating

    If the bottom hose is not getting warm it is often a sign the radiator is blocked.

    running too cold?

    As the engine heats and cools during operation the thermostat should open and close to keep the engine at the correct temperature. Change the thermostat first job.

    Exhaust manifold gasket

    I would use a smear on that gasket if it is sealing exhaust. It make the gaskets come off cleanly also. I coat the flange gaskets these days as well. Getting that baked on gasket material off manifolds/pipes is a pain in the ass.

    Need an expert

    I think the only job those pins do is stop the strut rods nuts coming off and being lost.

    Exhaust manifold gasket

    As Chryco has mentioned. You can use high temp silicone with no gasket provided the heads and manifolds are cast iron, and the surfaces are in good condition. Everything must be clean and not oily. A trial fit is usually a good idea to check out fasteners/fit etc. Some care must be taken when...

    1970 Challenger Disc Brakes

    I purchased hoses from Mega Parts they fit perfect. From memory the fitting was not 7/16 I think it was smaller. Maybe some pics of your callipers.

    Power steering pump cooler

    If they slowed the pump down there may have been little or no power steering while the engine was idling.

    Power steering pump cooler

    With the lower rear ratios the engine spins faster at any given road speed. This spins the power steering pump faster possibly overheating the power steer fluid.

    4 speed reverse light switch.

    I believe the picture you have posted is of an automatic trans switch. The 4 speed is completely different. Jamie at Mega Parts has them # 212-BU102M They use a thin sealing gasket. Brewers. 4 speed wiring basic operating fundamentals: The wiring has one wire to the switch hot all the time...

    4 speed reverse light switch.

    An automatic has the reverse lights and a starter inhibitor function. A 4 speed only has reverse lights.

    Glove box light

    I am not sure if it is the correct one - but I can't see Chrysler having several different glove box lamps.

    Attaching lenses to bezel

    The correct way would be to make a tool and melt the plastic after you install the lens but I am not sure if this is an option for you, There may not be enough original material to do it a second time. If you have an old cracked up dash bezel cut a little piece out of it to secure the lens.

    3 Speed Wiper Dash Connector

    From what I know the J25 option was available no matter if the car was base or R/T same as A01 the light group. It seems Chrysler was fairly flexible about adding or deleting some options. As stated in post #12 J25 became standard if you ordered an R/T or a shaker hood etc.

    3 Speed Wiper Dash Connector

    Yes someone here will have an intact plug on an old loom they will sell.

    70 steering column, two part question.

    I assume you are going rack and pinion? The original steering shaft is supported at the top by the upper column bearing and the coupler/steering box at the bottom end. This system means the column does not need a bearing at or near the firewall. You probably need to strip the column remove the...

    3 Speed Wiper Dash Connector

    You will most likely need to buy a second hand wiring loom to get that plug.

    connections on heater box

    I see now your car is an AC car - that may be different. Is the AC on? It may power the fan all the time perhaps? Does the switch have a central position that is OFF?

    connections on heater box

    Something not right there the switch definitely switches on and off the motor and adjusts the speeds.

    connections on heater box

    The fan switch should be able to start and stop the blower motor.

    Front disc brake caliper hardware kit

    I cannot remember the exact part number but I purchased a whole kit to get the rubber bushes and pins etc. I think the kit I bought was about $160 when I got it. I do remember something about there being 2 lengths of pins so watch out for that. I went to Mega Parts site : hover/click on...
