"Hey Twist do you plan on driving that beauty or just using a winch to get her  on and off the trailer,lol. I don't beleive in trailer queens but man that one sure would make you have second thoughts for sure!"


I do drive them some, but very little.  I only live about 20 miles from Carlisle and Hershey so they don't go far.  I mostly trailer them any distance, I'm always afraid some dufus will hit me.  The first time I took the Blue car out I almost got broadsided.  I don't think you could put a hand between both cars.

Awesome detail lemontwist!! :worship: :thumbs:

Don't take this the wrong way but Mopar throttle cable return springs usually go right where the throttle cable is hooked to the carb stud between the U of the clevis. Unless you have some documentation to support otherwise. :dontknow:

6pack Cars have unique carb studs with an extra groove for the return spring to fit into(probably because they had to clear the idle solenoid). Proper location would be correct as in Lemons picture.

You guys have some clean engine compartments. I especially like Lemontwist's great attention to detail.

Here's mine which has been mostly unchanged for about 14 years now, even the plug wires are the same.

Oh, I apologize that this is not a Mopar engine, but my friend just got his 1122 HP naturally aspirated BB Chevy running last night. Um, it is awesome!

Nice looking compartment, Autophile.  That BB Chevy looks wild, but don't tell anyone else I said that. :thumbs:

Wrong air cleaner base for a 70 Dodge Charger. Carbs need vacuum secondary pods and throttle stop solenoid. Yah I know this is a Cuda-Challenger Board and I have a 73 Challenger triple black. After searching the net for 6 Pak motor pics I thought that these pics may help someone else.

Looks like the correct air cleaner base for a 70 charger as it has the air fence in front of the filter.

Cast crank engine?
