The Jalopy Journal
Great pics. I really like the one of the Valiant (shamless plug). We packed it in friday night after i broke the rear end in Dads Dodge coupe.
This is so cool. I saw the signboard at a show last fall, but the tree wasnt there. on a sidw note, the panty dropper is one of my favorite...
keep up the top notch work!
I had to make a new rod for the Auto-stick using a steel rod from the hardware store. If iremember right, the rod is 1/2" and the adjuster is end...
this looks like anotherpicture from the indoor drag races in Chicago International Ampatheater. This is my first time seeing this one.
It's great to see you back posting progress on you bitching coupe. kkep up the good work.
Schneider cams can fix that camshaft if its otherwise a good cam. there prices are way cheeper then buying a new one.
Your work is outstanding. Welcome back!
Your coupe is damn nice. Anything with a Hemi will always draw me in. I cant decide if i like the Mickey Thompson valve covers better or the...
Total bummer to hear our block is cracked. Hopefully it can be sleeved and get out back rolling. As an early Hemi fan, Im always keepin an eye out...
I know this is an old thread, but my Dad was friends with Tom Soukup(the jackets original owner)and went to Morton HS in Cicero IL with him. While...
Here are the two Mopars Dad and i built. The 1966 Valiant has a 360 4-speed and has run 12.2 @111. We started with a rolling shell in 1994. The...
The blower intake should clear most any distributor or magneto without issue. The hotheads intake is no doubt a better design, but likely not...
You cant see it in the pic, but the govorner is under the distributor and connects to the throttle govorner under the carb. At sonme point on of...
Im bettin it looked like this. Scrapping the copper from the generator pad for the purchase of the tug and twice over, plus I got a 354. [ATTACH]...
I'm wondering the same thing? How long do you suppose a timing chain would last with no oil running onto it? Ic seen som truly bizzar places Hemis...
Looks like mid sixties custom rod perfection. Great job.
I built a Hemi a few tears ago and having more leaks then i would care to admit. Im thinkingat minimum, use gasket spray like Permatex high tack...
The compresion height is not the same on a 392 as a 354, so you will loose a bunch of compression. It will be more like 8-1
Could it be rthe same car? This one was from Missoursi and not a fesh build from the little i was told about it.
Having rented a older U-haul car hauler, this new one looks nice, but honestly not much better then the what is currently avalible. This one may...
This plymouth Plaza was at the Fallout Drags at Rock falls Raceway this year and had a 341 Desoto for power. It was one of the coolest cars on the...
This pic is from Great Lakes Dragaway. This picture is such a throwback to going with dad when i was a kid. I loved goin there for night racing...
If you watch any portion of this imbacil, at leats make sure to give him a down vote.
I wasn't aware Hotheads was making that adapter, but be aware you will have to cut the bell housing off the transmission case to use that adapter....
Last I heard, the long bell Hemi still didnt have any auto transmission adapters being produced. The reason Gary at QEC was going to do a C4 is...
This one isn't a street freak, but close enough with the killer red flake paint and centerline wheels.[ATTACH]
[ATTACH] I just found this thread. Awesome stuff guys. Anyways, this is the Sonic Cuda. It was biilt by the same shop that built the RTS Cuda for...
this car has a transmission curse! the 700 going bad is all my fault, bad adjustment on tv cable. Im ok with the 305. it's a hydraulic roller...
