    Aftermarket stereos for Road Runners?

    Are the aftermarket stereos that are available worth getting for Road Runners? For my '73 there's only three available: two from Custom Autosound and one from Retro Sound. These are just AM/FM stereo radios, but the more expensive CA stereo has a CD controller built into it I believe to control...

    New Power Steering Pump for the Bird

    I just got a new power steering pump for my RR and it looks like there was automatic transmission fluid in it for some reason because red oily fluid drained out of it when I installed it. Is this what these things are assembled with nowadays or could this be a return that someone used auto...

    Throttle Cable Issue

    I'm having trouble getting the idle to stabilize in my '73 with a stock 400 engine that now is option free. I shortened the throttle return spring located in front of the Thermoquad carb. to give it plenty of tension but I'm still having trouble with the engine idle racing uncontrollably at...

    WANTED Two Groove Later Style Crank Pulley

    According to my research these were used on both big block and small block engines as well as some V-6's - both without A/C - up until 1991. The outer groove on this model pulley is about 7 1/2" and the inner groove is about 6 1/2" give or take 1/8". I need one of these for my 400 engine. Thanks.

    WANTED '71-74 Manual Brake Parts

    I'm looking to do a manual brake conversion on my '73 RR project car and basically need the manual brake pedal linkage that is different than the power brake linkage, because that's what I believe to be the main difference. If there are other parts needed to do this please let me know. Thanks.

    Greetings from Kansas!

    I live in a small town in South Central KS just north of Wichita called Newton. Not very many road Runners around here unfortunately. The one I'm working on is a '73 Mist Green model.

    How close is too close?

    I had the drums and rotors on my RR turned down and now they are only .001-.002" over the minimum thickness numbers cast into them. Is it a good idea to use them if they are getting this thin even though they are still within spec? Right now I'm having trouble getting the brake pedal (which is...

    Another Thermoquad problem

    I can't get the Thermoquad on my '73 400 to quit running too rich. I put a carb kit in it making sure to install the primary well seals correctly, but this only helped a little and I still have black exhaust coming out of the tailpipes - I have the idle mixture screws turned all the way in, too...

    Brake and Clutch Pedal Height Discrepancy

    I converted my '73 Road Runner to a manual transmission and used a used pedal assembly what I was led to believe was for my car. Now with everything installed as per the Chrysler Plymouth factory shop manual the brake pedal is a good two inches lower than the clutch pedal where you press down...

    Would the engine callout decal color on the hood be black if your main decal color was white? Were these originally separate decals that got applied over the stripes or were they printed on the stripes themselves ? Were the Road Runner running birds separate decals that were applied over the...
