What happened to my earlier post?

Anyone ever noticed how many new members we get on here-all of the time. I would suspect that we have a lot of derby dipshit wolves dressed as sheep. No other forum gets this many new members. A little food for thought. It's a good thing that there are other cars that they use now. And...

I think someone mentioned that 440 Source is making nice poly mounts. Be better than Chinese, or India mounts.

Holley is 20-7 and Edelbrock is 1481.

My 71 Polara patrol car has extra coil springs in the driver and passenger position, the build sheet specified heavy duty seat springs. I supposed the seat frame had to be modified for the extra springs. I never thought to take pictures when I had the seat out.

Lot of extra work, just look at the harmonic balancer.

Years ago, I got one off Ebay for my 71 Polara. It was 200.00 but an original Mopar part. I think he's still selling them. He must have known-that he could make good money on these and bought a bunch of them when they were still available. Mopar part, fit perfect, and good quality.

I had an A Body dual diaphragm rebuilt by Harmon Classic Brakes, a little pricy but otherwise it's beautiful. I had mine replated the gold zinc color-the extra expense. Yours is just painted black, so it shouldn't be to bad.

There is a place in Colorado, Speedometer Cables USA, phone 888-907-6506. Quick service and reasonable.

I've looked up part numbers in the 70,71, and 73 parts book. The part numbers are very vogue. Every time I look for one of the numbers, it comes up as the latch. I'm pretty sure the cables have the part number on them, but I haven't tried to get the hood open yet.

I'd like to hold out for a decent one, surely someone has an extra.

I'm looking for a nice 71 Polara hood release cable assembly, mine broke! I think 70-73 C Body will work? Let me know what you have. Thanks

B Body is several gallons smaller than the C Body also. Buy the right one, you won't be sorry!

They are not all the same! If you don't have the correct linkage, it won't ever probably be right, at least the kickdown linkage.
