    Factory original Chrysler ammeter-based Charging System and additional loading. Load placement matters!

    Very nicely done! A good addition to this discussion would be the significance/benefits of "switch to ground" vs. "load to ground" circuits as they apply to properly placed loads.

    Dual Point Distributor.

    Electronic systems work great, but I’ll take a good dual point over electronic any day.

    Rally Gauges on a 68 Roadrunner

    FYI: Rally dash was standard on 68-70 Charger/Superbee, and 70 Road Runner/GTX. It was optional on 68-70 Coronet RT. Tach was optional regardless of model/dash choice. Hope I got that right....

    1969 survivor, question of value?

    The 40-50K valuation for an in-tact, unmolested, & untouched survivor is in the ballpark IMO. Especially when you consider desirable paperwork & options.

    Missing 1968 Plymouth Road Runner Fender Tag

    That's funny right there! I've seen creative tags before, that's a good one! The only part of the VIN that appears on a 1968 data tag is the first 4 characters. The six digits on the lower right corner are known as the shipping or order number (incidentally, on the MSO, its also combined with...

    MSD 8386 Distributor, Chrysler 383-400, Ready-to-Run

    Didn't want to give the wrong info, so I confirmed with a good buddy (who is an excellent resto resource) and he says 60% gloss black. The rustoleum semi-gloss spray bomb is a perfect match...hope to make it this year ...good luck with the car!

    Missing 1968 Plymouth Road Runner Fender Tag

    In 68, the VIN only appears on the dash tag, engine, & trans. So your first challenge is to mate the data tag with the VIN. This can only be done with a build sheet, window sticker, or MSO (manufacturers statement of origin) since those documents will have both numbers (shipping & VIN)...

    If you don't like points & preserving stock appearance is your goal, Pertronix is the way to go. The system is reliable & installation is simple. Be sure to follow the included schematic diagram EXACTLY. I have had to replace a few orange boxes over the years, but have never had to replace a...

    Eldebrock 600 cfm carb

    Big John is correct....and so was I. Lets not confuse the mechanically actuated secondary throttle plate with the air valve that lives above it. Even with the secondary throttle plate open, airflow through the secondary throttle bore is regulated above it by a counterweighted air valve, or an...

    Eldebrock 600 cfm carb

    Sorry if I was not clear: I was attempting to differentiate between the vacuum-actuated secondary throttle plate of the Holley, and the mechanically-actuated secondary throttle plate of the Carter. I did not mean to imply that the Edelbrock was an AVS style carb.
