    Mark VIII Cooling Fan Question

    I was told you need a 130 amp alt minimum to run the Mark VII fan and it is popular with the 5.0 guys. Check out the Dodge Intrepid fan, it is equally as popular, a lower profile and much lower amp draw. It was sold for years as the "Ramcharger" fan by a defunct company named Ramcharger. I...

    Restore chrome dash bezels

    Mr G is probably less than $500 which is just too much for me. I can't find these pieces for 71-73 in repro. Anyone know of any?

    Thanks Chelle- the 71-73 stuff is chromed. There is a company that restores (Mr G), but it costs bigtime (maybe $800 for all pieces). I'm gonna mask and try... We'll see.... Mike ****EDIT: It appears that some of the areas on the 71-73 are silver and some are chrome****

    has anyone done this on their dash pieces using chrome paint? 71-73's have no repro and I wondered if anyone has done this, what paints they used and how it turned out? Thanks!

    71-73/ Install cowl to hood seal ?

    back at it... I'm still trying to figure this out..... If I push the clips in from the top, it would appear that the clips remain visible from the top. I can't figure out how to bury the tops of the clips in the rubber. It sure won't look good if you see a bunch of clips. ?????? Maybe...

    How much slip yoke shaft ?

    My 72/429/C-6 seems to have too much shaft showing, meaning my driveshaft is too short. I used driveline from a parts car that apparently didn't have the right stuff. It is showing about 3". Anyone know what wouyld be the correct amount so I can get this shaft extended? THANKS.

    71-73/ Install cowl to hood seal ?

    No, I should be able to get them in. I have another parts car with the seal intact I can use as a reference. You confirmed they were installed correctly on the parts car, so I'm good to go. Thanks.

    71-73/ Install cowl to hood seal ?

    I got a new one and the clips. How does it attach? Do clips go down from top into metal or up from metal into seal? THANKS.

    71-73 rubber column seal ?

    Thanks. I'm guessing it was for the clutch linkage. No clutch now though.

    71-73 rubber column seal ?

    My car has an accordian type opening that looks like a cable or wires went through it where the column seals on the firewall. I'm guessing speedo cable, but anyone know for sure? Thanks.

    Can anyone ID this old school Cragar wheel?

    I don't care I'm still calling them "slots". I'm old and won't change.

    Can anyone ID this old school Cragar wheel?

    I just knew them as Cragar aluminum "slots". I never really liked them though. I liked the Cragar SS and the Keystone Classics back in the day. I'm a TTII fan now.

    Trunk tension rods! Help!

    I fought with these bigtime on my 72. After a friend poked a 4 stitch hole in his hand, I made a tool for this. Email me and I'll send you back a picture if you want at [email protected]. Basically, I put a 4 inch slot into a 3 foot piece of bar stock. I put the rod into the slot and put a...
