    Re: changing valve seals on my Charger

    There are versions available for about $30 or so. Note that they are a little cheaper quality wise than the USA made KD tools version for sure, but they still work well enough.

    Re: changing valve seals on my Charger

    If I had access to a mill, I would make one like Warren has. It's the best way to go for our heads IMO.

    Re: changing valve seals on my Charger

    Good Writeup. I hate doing valve stem seals, especially in car with a two piece intake manifold.

    That sounds great. Not too loud either judging by the video. Should be great to cruise around in.

    It looks like the power comes through the fusible links and then through the ignition switch to the bus on the fuse block. I would check the fusible links first, then suck it up and drop down the...

    I would check the fusible links. I'll see if I can find the diagram in my manuals today and post back up.

    Re: Heater box foam

    There seem to be quite a few places which sell the seals. I did a cursory search just now, and I couldn't find a complete kit with the bearing, clutch, etc. I'm sure they're out there though.

    Re: Heater box foam

    I've only bought one replacement, and it was a middle of the road price on Rockauto. It seems to be holding up well in the minivan. I'm thinking about rebuilding a couple of them which I have on hand.

    I would make sure the linkage is in good shape, and properly adjusted. If it goes into 2 and 4, but not the others, I think it almost has to be the adjustment. 2 and 4 are on different synchros.

    Re: Conventional oils being phased out.

    I've gone to the O'Reily conventional that they still have. I really wish there was something designed specifically to work with the later 1/2 synchro AND the 3/4 and 5 synchros.

    Thanks. I really wanted to make everything "perfect" as far as smoothing it out and ensuring that everything was as close to the same as possible, but I thought I had better quit while I'm ahead.
