I'm rained out this week-end.
She's staying dry though outside with 3 car covers over it.

My Challenger is going nowhere for awhile due to RAIN. I did find a good day early in week and drove it about 25 miles.  Also drove these non-E body Mopars.  The opportunities for a dry ride in the Northwest are getting scarce.

Pulling the water pump, and replacing it with a 440 source Hi Flow job.

Also have a new radiator shroud coming from Dave and Jon that should arrive on Monday.

Cars and Coffee Dallas...

Take some pics!

Those events usually have an interesting selection of cars.

I had to take mine out for a drive today; it was all covered up in the garage for the winter. But it’s sunny and 65 in Denver today, perfect for a cruse.

took it out last night to a local cruise in and on the way home noticed the interior dash lights and the headlights were kind of flickering. Barely noticeable though.
Im sure I still have some electrical issues  :violin:

i would be very careful with that pump mine had no time on it just idling around the neighborhood. and the bearings went out in it and let the shaft wobble and ruined a brand new aluminum radiator that was in the car for a week. also there housings are junk mine keeps leaking where it mounts to the block never had that problem with the iron housing. altogether they will never get another dime of my money.

sounds like your headlight switch is getting hot from resistance slotts here on the forum can hook you up on a new switch.

That's not good news, hopefully I won't have the same experience as you....

 :iagree:

This does not sound like a graceful degradation...

Anyone else have bad luck with 440 Source bearing failure?
