Well I did not think this thread was for pics, but I have a few.

First is modified and before I painted the engine bay
Second is the same engine, no headers, intake, chrome
But the 850 dp is still under the air cleaner, as well as all the inside goodies
This is the first time in 27yrs its looked stock, my chev friends hate it, ugly color no chrome yuck.......

How long until Chris post a picture of his engine compartment on here? Troy I thought Dana had a 6 pac set up on her? Or did you change that out a long time ago, and I just never noticed?



Here is a pic of my engine compartment. Many things are wrong in the pic, but its an engine compartment.

Yeap, I had the six pack on Dana for the longest time, but got bitten by the OEM bug... Now that I have the v-code Charger, Dana will keep her original 4bbl......

They're all things of beauty, but damn, Just 6T9_CHGR -- that's awesome.

The hose attaches to the vacuum tree on the back of the manifold.

The large upper section (that is capped in the pic) would be for your power booster.  One of the other legs would be for your headlights.

Note---this tree is for an A/C car which has an extra leg(s) for the A/C heat doors etc...

You could mount the MSD box under the battery tray or like a lot of others do inside the car on the pass side near the glovebox out of sight!


PS----thanks plum!! :cheers:

PSS---any pics of your ride rare69?

Wow Shakey,


That is one dirty engine compartment. 

jaak

Hey Shakey.... Those are great reference pics !!!!!!!


Hey Troy..... What changes do you have to make going from a 3 sp to 2sp wipermotor? Is it just switch and motor, or is 2 speed connector different , Alot say 2 and 3 speed have different links too, but I don't see a difference. Well anyways just wondering the changes needed.
