Great insight, thank you

Join me in welcoming @atedhe-rex-rexha to FCBO.

I did not have any difficulty finding pistons, depending how much of an overbore you were seeking. 20 and 30 thousands were in stock. 40 thousands were not. I figured if I was going to all that work, I might as well take advantage of the increased displacement and go for 30. Also, I continue...

IMHO, Yes, to both questions, defiantly

So should he take his dash apart and actually inspect the back of the gauge? Should I remove the jumper wire from alt to starter relay? Thanks for all the help.

Sorry I did forget a major part of the info,on the car I worked on,the previous owner removed the generator and installed an alternator. This car has the same setup as all the rest I thought.every picture I seen and info I read seemed like it was the same...

1960 was the model year Chrysler changed away from generators to this alternator/ammeter across all platforms. Other than ’70 and up changes noted, the core charging/load distribution changed little since 1960 for this discussion. Some early models didn’t use Packard connectors at firewall...

I’ll have to look but I think the only thing I have is the owners manual Don’t remember seeing anything like the broadcast sheet I do have one headlight cover from my uncles wrecked 76 RMB if anyone is interested Thanks

At least you got 215K out of the ole girl. What a cool story. Did you happen to keep it's broadcast sheet or anything else from the car? Since your family bought it brand new they would have had all the paperwork.

Currently it all original. Trying to decide if/how to make changes to the engine

Well I went an got the 1963 Plymouth Fury 4 dr sedan, its pretty much a time capsule. I have attached copies of the vin plate and data plate. Can anyone please tell me what they mean as far as info on the car. It has A/C (not working), radio works, lights (brake lights don't work nor dash...

The 1984 plymouths were the ugliest group.

OK, good point. Now you are starting to give more info that sounds like you are actually working on a car, so again, I'll apologize. To answer your question, if you are working on a 60/61 Chrysler, almost all of this thread doesn't apply to you. Those cars use generators and not alternators...

I have used this quarter window roll up seal w/ much success. You will have to cut to fit. AS @Big_John and @jet1969 have already mentioned DMT are great people to work with.

possibly these numbers. Thanks. Chrysler, dodge, imperial 69 70 2945610 2935340 2935338 2999122 3695510 2999004

That’s a big deal, very touching!

Correct,I did it how everyone said.but didn't you say doing this causes more problems in a previous post? Current car is 1960 new yorker Car that burnt down was a 61 ny

Unfortunately it’s not My grandparents passed it to me and I put a lot of miles on it It was pretty rusty and at 215k miles it went to its final reward Still ran good would like to have it today to run around in but you know how it goes Not to talk sacrilege on this site but it gave lots of...

When you add a direct connection from the alternator to the starter, you give a second path for current to flow between the battery and the alternator. The first path is from the battery to the ammeter to the alternator. This first path has a fusable link in the path. It will burn up if there...
