    « on: August 17, 2006 - 09:56:17 PM »
    i've decieded to restore my challenger and i want to try to find #'s matching parts. the guy i bought the car from has a few 318's around and my friend has one in his challenger that he may trade me for my 440 if it is the right one. but i want to see if the guy i bought it from has the origional motor. what #'s do i need to look for on the motor. how about #'s on other parts. any help would be great since this is my first mopar restoration.

    You can read this;

    http://www.aarta.com/numbers_matching/numbers_matching.html

    That will outline where to look for the numbers and all, just ignore the T/A specific stuff for you car.

    Best of luck!

    Congrats!!   :clapping:  :woo:  :woohoo:

      If the motor has been sitting in the weeds for long, I hope it can be saved.  :dunno:
