    Stupid Key Question

    The "head" of the key is not important (other than for possible cosmetic issues and model year use. What IS important is that stamped letter below the head, on the shank. That letter identified the groove pattern on the key. The grooves vary with different ID keys, as to specific placement...

    The Hurst Registry

    I can't find it on FB, but I don't have my own account and I'm definitely not an FB power user. Just borrowing GF's account to have a look. Can you point us to it, or give us the VIN, etc?

    AVS2 650 CFM on a 383-2, tuning help needed

    I have had friends who blocked the heat riser passage (for hot rod performance orientations, usually). When I swapped engines to one with factory aluminum heads that were for an OEM EFI engine, THEN I noticed some things I had not noticed before. Had to tweak/re-calibrate the electric choke...

    NOT MINE 1971 NY FB 4dr U code

    I was out at the seller's property and saw this 71 New Yorker. It was way beyond saving....had significant floor rust, the interior was trashed, and also had fender and quarter rust down low so it looked like it may have spent time in the rust belt somewhere. Had a huge trailer hitch on it. The...

    AVS2 650 CFM on a 383-2, tuning help needed

    What year is the engine? Does it have stock pistons? Definitely raise the idle speed. Don't block the heat crossover, it will cause you many problems with driveability.p, stumble bog. Watch this video below about the heat crossover, why a carbureted car needs it open and working and why a...

    Started getting my 69 Newport ready for new paint.

    Finally got back working on her this weekend. Floorboards are patched and we got the Challenger seats in. Still need to tweak them a bit, but I think they will work really well. New carpet will wait till after the car is painted. Picked up 2 replacement fenders. They need a little work but...

    Another C body guy joins.

    Hello to all. I am new to the FCBO forum so, in keeping with suggested procedures, I am here to introduce myself. I'm the relatively proud owner of a 65 Sport Fury that I paid way to much for thinking I'd just drive it like it was. That lasted about fifteen minutes until my perfectionist genes...

    Mopar electronic conversion epic fail.

    Jumping + battery terminal to coil + didn't work. Ballast resistor supplied with kit is 1.7 ohms. Stock is 1.8 Earlier DC kits use a 1.25 resistor.

    My Unicorn, eh?

    Looking at the 66 parts book. It seems it could have been a by factory thing. Weather strip 23-63-112, Rear window 23-64-314. Both styles were offered for Dodge, Plymouth and Newport. The windows are different part numbers. But there is no indication of when one or the other was used. The...

    Mopar electronic conversion epic fail.

    These questions were asked in the first three posts. I also posted a pic of my ground system. You can check there. Modules have been tested locally and are good. Battery terminals are clean. Instructions are the same as on the internet. I do have some suspect wiring, but battery is good.

    Mopar electronic conversion epic fail.

    With the vendor on the phone, I checked the pickup coil resistance, and it was well within specs. It also generated a signal when I spun it with the plug hooked up to the meter. It also generated a weak spark at the coil when the distributor was hooked up and spun. Until it didn't. I have...

    Steering box blows a seal. Now what?

    More likely it's a hose if it's leaking that much. Seals usually, but not always, tend to seep rather than dump fluid.

    Or possibly an 8 1/4 rear. But definitely not in an 8 3/4.
