    Parking Brake-handle

    All, when I got my 70 challenger, the parking brake handle was bent as pictured. I've checked the service manual but can't seem to find my answer. Can anyone tell me if I can simply replace the handle/rod portion of the brake mechanism? if so, where might I find one? Thanks.

    Electrical Tools

    All, At some point I will replace the wiring and install an American Autowire harness on my 70 Challenger. I am an absolute novice and the only thing I know is to not put a butter knife in an outlet. Nonetheless, I will take on the challenge. To that end, I am looking for a list of tools...

    Temp gauge

    My 70 challenger has a 360 engine. My temp gauge seems to be toward the high end. I would expect it should be around halfway. Does anyone roughly know what the temp would be at the midpoint and high point? i used a laser temp reader and it says 180-190. average.

    coil

    All, in the process of organizing my engine compartment's wiring, i found that my Accel 140001 coil (which is ginormous) has a chip in it. not sure if this occurred due to ignition or dropped somewhere along the way. Either way, i figure I should replace it. Since I have an MSD 6A box w/ tach...

    harness mixing

    I plan to redo the wiring on my 70 challenger. I'm going with American Autowire. I know behind the dash will be the most labor intensive and likely the most painstakingly part. I'm considering starting with the rear and front harnesses to chip away at the project. Any idea if the original...

    Spark plug wires

    My 70 Challenger has a 1993 crate engine - 360 w/ six pack. not sure if it makes a difference but it has MSD ignition. I broke a spark plug cable today and I have no idea how old the cables are so i'm going to replace all of them. I'm not really concerned about period correct just that...

    Exhaust thoughts

    My 70 Challenger has a 360 crate engine with apparent BB headers and H pipe exhaust (unknown brands). As you can see the ground clearance is terrible which wasn't helped by the Hotchkis TVS front and rear kit that I installed. I have also converted it from a 727 tranny to SST's 5 Speed Tremec...

    are these headers supposed to be different?

    All, I was changing spark plugs and noticed the headers are different. driver side is a nightmare to get to the back two plugs but that's a different adventure that i'm still sorting out. Are the driver side and passenger side typically different like these? any idea what type they are?

    spark plugs - hard to find

    Happy Holidays everyone! I've checked previous posts about spark plugs and sounds like the Champion N9Y (part #300 according to champion website) may be the way to go. I've checked typical parts websites like pep boys, auto zone etc and nobody seems to carry that specific plug. most seem to...

    Engine/Transmission level

    All, I've installed an SST TKO 5 speed in my 70 Challenger. I'll be taking the measurements to order the drive shaft and deal with the driveline angle. My kit includes spacers for the crossmember which got me wondering how crucial it is to ensure the motor was level. do i just ensure the main...
