    383 Heads serial #s?

    '70 Sport Fury 383 From what I could find, head serial # 2843906 (68-70 383/440 B/RB Series) is the only one my car could have. Were there any others? Thanks

    Jack it up?

    It must be slightly higher than stock. Unfortunately, as I suspected, the header guy cranked it up to make room for them and you can even see little scratches on the tubes where the steering hits at the extremes. Looks like I'm stuck with it.

    Jack it up?

    Gee, maybe he did. I had a pair of air shocks that blew out when I had my old leaf springs, but before they did I could pump it up to a nice stance without it riding any different. That would explain how I just haven't gotten the stance I want having overhauled the rear suspension.

    Jack it up?

    I actually would've had the opportunity to get some work done on the torsion bars up front because they had to COME OUT to install headers, but the tech decided not to tell me he was doing that until it was all done. Now I'm not sure how worth it that would be, that's stock height.

    I probably won't change much now because I'm happy with it (and sick of suspension work :| ) but I have seen jacked up C-bodies so I assumed it was possible. Car looks good and still rides pretty well, I just couldn't stand the saggy rear.

    Jack it up?

    As I said in op, they are brand new leaf springs. The old ones were inverted but now theyre not.

    Jack it up?

    '70 Sport Fury So I've got the big ol adjustable shackles on their highest setting and some hijacker (or whatever brand) shocks and when I pump it up to the stance I like (higher in the rear, not much fender over tire), I've lost all suspension travel hahahaha. So my question is how do folks...

    Dash covers?

    1970 Sport Fury Any recommendations on dash covers or pads for C-bodies? I purchased one from DashCare Covers and while the look and material is nice, the carpet on the passenger side goes about 2 - 2.5 in too far down and covers up the wood trim entirely and nearly goes over the glovebox...

    Temp guage wiring location

    Temp guage is currently inoperable, must have been disconnected recently as a lot has been replaced. Where is the hookup for temp under the hood? Thanks!
