Any of those batteries would be plenty good. A lead acid battery would be just fine. Your alternator is what provides power when the engine is running. The car doesn't (and shouldn't) run off the battery.

Looking for battery for my New Yorker (440 engine, MSD coil). Fellow from MSD said the MSD coil needs a strong signal to produce a quality spark at the plug. I'm thinking of a 850 CCA Interstate. Stopped at Advanced Auto and they showed me an AGM battery. Saw where AGM batteries can produce 900...

Being a 1979 model year item, NOW you can further research if it has the lock-up torque converter or not. There used to be floor shifters, aftermarket, for automatic transmissions. B&M, for example, used a cable to work the side linkage on the transmission. Enjoy! CBODY67

Are you planning on resurfacing the engine deck? That's the only reason to take those out. Be careful with what you replace them with. I've seen guys snap off hardened deck pins, so I stick with the non-hardened pins like original.

In looking for a wheel for my 69 I found that the 69s didn't have the hold but the 70s did on the same wheel (by part number) Alan

My 4 matching wheels are made by Motor Wheel with 7 digit part number. The 5th wheel with hole is Kelsey Hayes. I'll get pics of stampings.

Thanks for the information. This answers my question about the swap. I was hoping to use the later model brakes, but I'll look at other avenues.

What type of switch is used on 1958 Imperial models? It is a kind with 3 screw posts in the back or 4? Does it connect to the dash with a screw bezel or a set screw in the back? Does anyone have a part number? -Gregg B.

Yes. Thanks. Something still not right. Appears I have no cam to move it. I took it loose and ran the motor and manually connecting the points did nothing either even when the switch was turned off. I tested the switch and it's perfect according to FSM but I still have 1 speed and no park...

Agree with that. What are the stamped date codes by the valve stem?

Brilliant, whilst still researching the engine it's attached to that's also coming up as a 1979(I wondered if it might have been a later unit so looks like it's all 1979)

I don'kno... does the wheel have the Pentastar and other related Mopar size numbers? .

Memories... .

Guessing it's a spare and hole is to mount the jack,or secure the wheel in the trunk

You had one job... .

I had to look in my transmission book to be sure on this as I'm not a "numbers guy". The second set of numbers is (or should be) the date code. Based on the 10,000 day calendar Chrysler used, 6312 is November 8, 1978, so it would have been in a 1979 vehicle.

Definitely not a "push button" cable shift trans. I understand there are kits available to use the push button with a trans that doesn't use a cable shift, but I have no experience with them.

In 1981 my healthy stock 1979 Chevrolet Camaro Berlinetta with 305 automatic (two barrel/four barrel?) repeatedly got 24 mpg at 65 mph. The car had 70k miles on it. Nice little car it was. A pretty bronze color. I bet the aero dynamics were not near as bad as my 1975 brick Dart are. Carter two...
