    3.91 gear swap or rebuild question

    Hey guys, my 3.91 rear end is my next point of attention on my 70 challenger. Little leak, very little noise but main issue is 3300 rpm when cruising and my first gear does not have much use. Should I rebuild it, I have done them in the past, put in a lower gear? Just get the gears or...

    340 Stroker not warming up when driving

    Hey Chris, but why would worry about blocking off the radiator if you run a 190 Stat and the motor is at 170 or so there should be close to nothing going through the radiator anyways...

    340 Stroker not warming up when driving

    Thanks for the replies, I have a FITECH EFI unit on the motor so the temp reading is digital and compares to the manual one very well. I have a new be cool radiator with shroud and double electric fan so I am sure that is not the reason for the close to 200 F idle temp. I suspect either the...

    340 Stroker not warming up when driving

    Hey, I have a 416 stroker in my challenger, that is running very well with fitech. I started with a 160 milodon high flow stat and in the summertime here in georgia on the highway I an around 170, when idle it goes to close 200f. Cooler fall temps made my temp go down to 155 when driving. In...

    WTB Pistol Grip 727

    Hello, I am looking for a pistol grip shifter for my 70 challenger with the 727. I currently have the T-Style shifter and want to upgrade with the pistol grip. It can be original or aftermarket but I want good quality please. Let me know if you have one. Daniel

    The German with the TA clone - Engine Question

    I ordered some mighty mounts, heard good things about them, hope to get them before the weekend. How much tuning did you have to do on your Fitech to get it where it needs to be? Only issue I still have is I have to open the throttles quite a bit in order to start the car, and it is harder to...

    The German with the TA clone - Engine Question

    Hey austa, to let you know what happened, I talked to my machine shop who did the block and heads and he insisted for me to flush coolant before I remove heads and that did it, used purple flush and everything is gone, after almost 100 miles nothing came back. Also pressurized cooler to13psi...

    The German with the TA clone - Engine Question

    I decided to pull the heads anyway to be 100% sure what is doing on and it will give me the chance to look at pistons and cam. I let you know what I find you. Daniel

    The German with the TA clone - Engine Question

    Yes the sludge seems oil based, looks solid in the coolant but oily when out. I will flush it first then see what it does. I want to use some kind of flushto break down thisoil and get it all out, any recommendations? I am using regular green mixed with distilled water and water wetter. A 6...

    The only filters I can find have a metal mesh kind of filter element, not sure if this will filter out the sludge or just break it up? I cannot find the one you refer, will that one filter more than just solids?

    The German with the TA clone - Engine Question

    It is actually a dual plane plane which can get you trouble along with the Fitech, so far I love It, no complaints. But I have not pushed the motor to see what it does in higher rpm, super start, idle and all. Like all the tuning possibilities along with it, timing, fan temp, idle...I drove...

    The German with the TA clone - Engine Question

    Hey everyone, I am somehow new to muscle cars and Mopars but I have to say it has been fun. I am in my early 30's and used to work on VW's and Diesels but since I got a 70 Challenger about 9 month ago I will not go back :-) The car is a Georgia car (I live close to Atlanta) and it was an...
