Hi!  I just joined myself and I am also building a muscle car out of a 1973 Challenger.  I just picked it up today and I am sifting through all the parts.

What stage are you at?  Any pictures to share?

there is no difference in body position or shape from 70 - 74. the only difference (that i know of) is that later cars have extra vapor and return lines for Environmental purposes. as for HEMI app's I cant say. larger fuel lines for sure 3/8" instead of 5/16". But id get some more feedback first.

 :iagree:

For a HEMI alot of folks use 1/2" racing line.  Kind of hard to work with the stock float and sender though.

Know anybody that does good TIG work?
