Thank you so much. This really helps me a lot. She has a very clean underside.

I have a 2 Post lift in my hangar. Where do you all place the lift arms to lift your E Body Challenger? I sure don't want to bend anything. Photos would be great. Thanks

...to see what the temps were going to run on the engine. Ambient air temp was 80 degrees. The temps were slower in coming up and stayed at 180* for a while then started to climb very slowly. By the time we got to the place we buy ice cream the gauge was showing 205*. We got back in the car...

You are correct. I finally found it. It was mounted under the drivers seat and I just did not see it. I found it accidentily by putting my hand under the seat looking for something else.

...damage. We got it done in one afternoon. The next day we spent trying to eliminate one variable on my 70. We manually changed the timing from 5* BTC to about 13* BTC. This was guess work because I don't have a timing tape around the dampner. The engine increased in RPMs so we manually...

Along with the two previous observations, I can see where the first owner looped the heater hose back into each other since there is no heater core. Could this also be a problem. I have a friend with a 360 in his 73 Challenger and he did the same thing. He is running an OEM radiator with a...

I measured my water pump pulley and it is a 6" (5" 13/16") pulley. Is this an underdrive pulley? I could not find specs on the March pulleys. I don't know if these are March pulleys.

I got a chance to do a little research after my ranch duties. I checked the timing and it is approximately 5* BTC, this is at idle 980 rpm and stays there at about 1800 rpm. I checked the Sniper monitor and it shows no timing at all. Is 12* on the end of the tab?

Everyone says check the timing. Before I address the fan problem, I am going to check the timing. Since this is a Sniper EFI, do I check the manual timing and adjust it if necessary before I go to the timing parameters in the software? Also, what should the manual timing be? The owners...

I have no clue on what the alternator rating is but I suspect it is only a 60 amp. I do notice that while working on the car and starting it and stopping it, the battery drops voltage and the engine gets harder to start. If it is fully charged, it starts pretty quick. Good info MCG

The smaller cooler is for the rack & pinion powersteering fluid. The line is right next to one of the header tubes. It can not be moved because of the rack & pinion placement. My thought is like you mentioned, move the smaller cooler.

I have not checked the engine timing yet. I did install a Mr. Gasket high flow 180* thermostat. Thermostat does open at it should and I can see good water flow through the radiator cap neck. I am suspecting that the bottom fan that cuts out when the top one kicks in is part of the problem...

...done to it to try and fix the problem. I replaced the 13# radiator cap with a 16#. Ran the car and it heated up like before. I replaced the 160* thermostat with a 180* thermostat. It helped some but not much. I replaced all the plug wires because 5 out of 8 were burned through. They are...

The venting problem is solved using this method in the photo. Holley was slow to respond but they finally did. The lady at "Tanks Inc" told me that there should have been a Y barb fitting (like in the photo) included in the hardware package of the Sniper system. She said this was so the vent...

There is no way to install the vent valve backwards. It only goes one way. The other thought I had was to put a bend in the line like a P trap. Anyway, as soon as I get down to about a gallon of fuel in the tank, I am going to drop it and redo what the piss poor installers did.

Fuel was coming out of the vent tube just before the fuel pump handle cut off. The 70 Challenger has a vent tube on the side of the neck about 4-6 inches in, before the gas cap. Who ever installed the system, ran the vent line from the in tank fuel pump to the filler neck vent tube. Mopar Car...

Very nice car. Looks fast.

Thank you. That is the way I feel about it.

I am not sure because the fender tag is missing. I am pretty sure it was an SE car with a 318 according to the VIN

It has been a busy few months with travel and other obligations. Finally getting to read the responses. Thank you Cuda for the perspective of owning a friends car and the memories it brings. We visited with his widow this afternoon at her ranch and had a great visit not to mention coffee and...
