Are Hella's direct replacements or do they need a conversion kit? I read today on a couple other forums that almost all other halogens made today are junk. GE, Sylvania XV, Wagner - all junk. So bad, that there's no difference between non halogen and halogen other than a whiter light. I...

So it seems my headlights might be the originals. They state "Power Beam" in middle with a "2" above and above that "B23". It's weird because I think they still give off a decent light while in the city, but where there's no city lights, they seem dim on the sides, kind of difficult to see...

Thanks for the side pic. Now I get why 20630 might not work on the TNT. Magnums seem to have a little more room. The TNT's engine compartment seem to be more compact. Does your Magnum have a 26 inch radiator? I'm not sure why Chrysler didn't make everything the same with such large cars...

Whoops, missed it...I apologize. After looking at your pic, I'm gonna try 71281 which has more of an OEM look to it. He said he had to trim it so I'm hoping he trimmed it from the thermostat housing. Anyhow, I'll post once I change it. Thanks!

From my years working with the government, I've found they and lawyers don't look kindly to most types of modifications. If you get in a wreck even if it wasn't your fault, lawyers love to pick mods apart by asking, "Are you a lighting engineer?", "Are you ASE certified". Most mods, on such...

Anyone have any pictures of hose 60664, 60659 or 60621 on a 440? The 71281 in my original post seems to fit very nicely, however it seems like its pushing down on the heater hose. I can't tell if its tall enough to allow the heater hoses to route underneath. My unknown part # hose barely...

Thanks guys. Only here on this website would I be able to get this info. I'm trying to be proactive for once in my life. My 22yr old napa upper hose is still good, but its getting that spongy feeling. The lower hose feels OK. Regards,

So I guess we all in agreement that I should clean up the connections and replace with halogens, then aim them properly. If I'm not happy with that, then rewire directly from battery as Morris states above. Again, thanks to everyone for posting.

I went to 3 parts stores. 1 said they don't make it anymore. 1 gave me Dayco#70592 which doesn't fit and the other said Gates part number is C70592 which looked like the wrong part# so I didn't order it. The only help I found was this picture in another forum with someone that put a 440 in...

Wow, you're going all the way. Cool. I did mine the amateur backyard mechanic way fixing stuff without tearing it down.... and on a shoestring budget. I got it on Ebay with winning bid of $1000 in 2003. A few things still aren't perfect and I'm kind of still working on it, oh well. Keep...

I didn't realize I'd get so many good posts. Thanks for all the help. I'll post the difference once I get into it. I took a quick pic. I'll clean them as you guys said but I don't think it looks too bad for 54yrs old. Doesn't Halogen consume much more power? I'm not sure my 54 year old...

As some of you know, bought my Hurst for $1000 in 2003 sitting over 10yrs in a junkyard and have been slowly restoring it ever since. Front headlights don't look too dim looking at them, but if I'm on a street without street lights, then its difficult to see the road. When I turn on the...

Thanks Cbody67. Whoops....I was in racing engine mode. Old stock engine VE commonly top out at 80%, so the most air that 318 can swallow at 6000rpm is 442CFM. Thanks for catching that. Doesn't going too big on a stock engine require extensive tuning with zero or little benefit?....Rich idle...

Thanks man for the info. I didn't know some of that stuff. Hey! A new research worldwide just concluded. All men, All healthy, most around 30yrs of age. They're checking much larger groups of men later this year. They found: China - All 40 participants had tiny plastic particles in their...

A stock 318 poly max safe RPM is 6000, correct? According to the CFM formula, the most air it can swallow is 552CFM. Add 10% for to cover any carb marketing BS and its 607cfm. Add a little more for those crazy times you go above 6000 rpm and I'd say a 650 would be perfect...Who's with me!

I just wanted a carb that I could set, forget, and run great forever. After playing with Holleys, Carters, Edlebrocks on previous cars, I went with a Thermoquad, rebuilt by Demonsizzler. This was 20 yrs ago. Sure that first year was a pain to dial it in and I had to modify linkage to install...

I don't get it. If you want to go faster, buy a new Kia. Almost any new car is going to be faster than our land yachts. Tesla 0-60 in under 3 seconds Kia Stinger 4.7 seconds. Hyundai Ionic 3.4 seconds Even the huge Hyundai Palisade 8 passenger SUV is 6.3 seconds. I guess we can still beat the...

Hey, that looks like me!

Thanks for the reply! When I get a chance, I'll check it out.

Hey man, you're great. I really appreciate everyone replying. 90% of my travels are short under 20 mile round trips, almost none highway, so that probably has something to do with it, but wouldn't all cylinders look like this? The other cylinders look cleaner, not great, but for a 50yr old...
