Yes, Pulp Fiction...

Pretty woman... Really? LOL

The Sound of Silence... The Graduated.

Althought these two more to the full movie than some particularly scene that I remember.

were the bolts branded at all? arp or anything like that? stock?

Factory (as far as I know) grade 8 bolts, which will be retired because at least some of them are probably stretched. The replacements are ARP.

When I had my first 1969 Charger in the 80's I remember I had taken it to PA from NJ to a car show. Not too far, maybe a 90 minute trip one way. I did take it to Wildwood, NJ, a 3 hour drive to spend a long weekend there at the shore. I can't recall if I had driven it to Carlisle which would have been another 3 hour trip. It wasn't a very reliable car, the previous owner abused the crap out of it.

My 1969 Satellite went on a much longer trip in 1985. My girlfriend (now my wife) & I went to the Mopar Nationals in MI. After the show we decided to take an unplanned trip to kill time & headed north between the Great Lakes to Canada. From there we cruised through Ontario eastward & ended up at Niagara Falls. Spent some time there, then headed south through NY back home to NJ.

The whole trip was roughly 2000 miles & most of them done with the top down in this thing.....

By the way, these two photos are 37 or 38 years apart & with the same tires....LoL

Last summer my booster crapped on my Daytona because of the same reason, leaking master. I shopped around and found the best kept secret on rebuilders.  Quick turn around and best price. Only thing I didn't like was he painted it gloss black and wrapped it in newspaper for shipping while the paint was wet! What a hassle to undo that! So if you use him, request not to have it painted! LQL!  Call Rick at 404-441-8167  WINGNUT
BTW, it works perfectly!

Thanks for your reply and information.
The are relatively close to me, so if I choose to go this route at least I can drop it off and pick it up myself.
Sincerely Vic

The song "Living in stereo" by the Cars....
I was playing Fast Times at Ridgemont High and my brother in law was passing through the hallway. When he heard the song, he screeched to a halt because THAT was when Phoebe Cates popped open her red bikini top with the water spraying in the background...

The correct song title was Moving in Stereo.

Figured you would appreciate the correction

Considering that the intake bolts are threaded into cast iron that's not very thick, I'm surprised the book calls for 50 ft. lbs. I've seen the threads pulled out of the head more often than snapped bolts.
