Fury Fan -- True, but why have ram tubes and two big 4-barrels if you don't flog it? My idea of "hard usage" in town is foot to the floor, screaming tires, howling unsilenced air cleaners, roaring exhausts, and billowing smoke while blowing away some "tuner" in a pacific rim SEE-dan with a...

John -- Good point. So much of that replacement stuff nowadays is foreign junk. Found that out especially on a wiper switch on my Vette which came apart in my hands. However, I'm pretty sure that Mancini stuff I got back in 2002 is real MOPAR as it's served well all these years. But I'll...

Can you remember which MOPAR electronic unit you used? My go-to is normally Pertronix, but I'd use a MOPAR unit if there's one out there that is easy to install and works well. Tre -- This happened back in about 2002 when that old dual point distributor conked out while I was driving to a car...

Lads -- I'm an old fud that not only had a Fury with the ram-induction engine back in 1960-1964, but I also was fortunate to have acquired another back in 2000 (which is still in my stable). Some points of interest: - I run the highest octane unleaded but with every fillup I also add about five...

Lads -- The 426-Street in my '65 Sport Fury has been "up graded" a bit with a non-stock and somewhat wilder cam that now idles at a lope when warm and higher than the conventional 750-850 RPMs. Its console-mounted tach (whose accuracy may be questionable) indicates it can reach close to 6000...

SportFuryman -- Your wish is my command. The color pics (exterior and interior) are of the car I have now; the black and white is of the first one, taken in the spring of 1966. The cars are almost identical (i.e., Medium Red Metallic with matching interior 2-dr HTs, 426-S engines, 4-speeds...

SportFuryman -- It's your car and your money, so you should do whatever floats your boat. But from my own experience with that Inland unit in a '67 R/T I had from 1967 until 1972, with the Hurst unit in the '65 Sport Fury 426-S I had from 1964 until 1967, and with the '65 Sport Fury 426-S...

Lads -- The manifolds, air cleaners, block-off plates, and balance tubes by themselves are not too hard to come by, but the proper carbs, linkage, and exhaust manifolds are rather rare. Back in my hot rod days (1960-1964), I saw one long ram that had been modified by shortening the inner...

Lads -- Back on November 24, 1965, when courting "that girl," I drove my '65 Sport Fury 426S/4-speed (no A/C or PS) from my apartment in Albuquerque, New Mexico, to my dad's driveway in Pueblo, Colorado, (about 310 miles) via Santa Fe, Taos, Colorado's San Luis Valley (very flat and straight)...

Lads -- Anyone have an idea as to where I can get a Torque Control Fan Drive for the 426-S engine in my '65 Sport Fury? These didn't really hold up well back in the old days which probably is the reason my engine is missing its unit. I kinda think one for a 426 Hemi might work, but I'm not...
