    1973 440 Challenger- Clone Vanishing Point

    The engine has been tested and cleaned, there are no issues with the block, heads, crank, or rods. He will bore out to fix the ridge rimmer I used- lesson learned never do that again. As for the failure not sure if there was one- I never heard the engine run. I was thinking about some head work...

    Turn r/t hood into cold air intake?

    Mopar leo, thanks for the info, I seen the TA snorkle style hood, but I cant seem to fine an aftermarket that reproduces the hood, and it makes sense the effects are better at high speed. Cosmetically looks good, not practical for street crusing. With that being said the Cuda T/A hood has a very...

    Turn r/t hood into cold air intake?

    Tonker, I like this thread and i didn't know the inlets were not functional- I am building a 440 in a 73 Challenger so I want the same results. I say this not to insult ANY MOPAR fans, when I did my 68 Camaro I created a cowl induction kit with a 16" cake pan and a aftermarket rubber seal...

    Manual to automatic, automatic to manual

    I converted an auto to manual in a Camaro- I know they are different, however the product from Hurst Driveline are straight forward and the support section is TOP KNOTCH! Am liked it so much I will do it again to my 73 Challenger from auto to manual. A big difference is that in the Challenge the...

    Newbie from a Bowtie background

    I have already taken the blood pressure pills for this- my goal is to apply what I learned from the Camaro and do a budget rebuild as best as I can. I have the paper goal to be less than 10k for this, I will take alot of this on myself to do with help from friends who have built things before. I...
