    Re: TIII Shelby Charger

    Going to try to bring things up to speed and hopefully not forget anything too important along the way.

    There were several attempts to get things going over the years and some significant things did get done.

    We got the FWD Koni's installed and got the powder coated K member and trailing axle installed.

    Something I've wanted to mention and hopefully others are aware of this;

    When installing poly bushings into the rear trailing axle to frame mounts, make sure to Urethane them in permanently!

    We originally installed a set years ago and after blasting and 3 coats of por15 they went in just snug. Once trailing axle was installed though, we could move it side to side more than I was willing to let go. This brought us to the conclusion that the factory pieces, which are Solid filled, would be better than installing the poly replacements with assembly lube.

    So we removed and cleaned, scuffed the inside to give bite to por15 and used windshield urethane and let dry several days. All back together and problem solved.

    Unfortunately this is the only pic I have from back then;

    Re: TIII Shelby Charger

    Porting the head was pretty nuts IMS. Took a Long time till I was happy with it. Can't believe I didn't take any pics, but can't find any.

    I have 1 pic of the very beginning of the intake mani porting and a cpl of the exhaust mani. As you can tell, I've always gone with the slightly larger exhaust port rather than try to match them exactly.

    Got the engine assembled and belt routing via Jackson mod, as well as Jackson recommendation on belt tension.

    One thing that Glenn had always talked about was properly degreeing the cams via Chrysler specs, and he had saved all the info, so we did that as well.

    Your welcome, and I would be posting up more, but it's crazy how long it takes just to get back to where you were!

    Several weeks into this and I'm wasting time running around figuring things out, just to come full circle to I had it figured already and just had to re dig up the solution.

    Re: TIII Shelby Charger

    Just going to post up a few pics of some clearance shots and move along to where we are now.

    Not sure if our clocking of compressor housing changed things from others mounting the Holset straight on, but we found that the compressor housing interfered with the cross over shifter cable. Also, that cable brkt was right in the way of the Holset boost solenoid that we use along with Apexi boost controller.

    So l modified and lowered that brkt while keeping shifter geometry in tact. No before pics, but going off memory, l believe l dropped it about 1/2 the width of that boost solenoid.

    There have been a number of other mods along the way, but thinking l will just wait if anyone has any specific Q’s and go from there.

    We flipped the T-stat neck and plugged the lower heater core feed from the bottom of water box and drilled/ tapped the back that usually feeds coolant to turbo for 5/8 barb fitting.

    We are smack in the throws of wiring everything up now, so this will be the messy part, but things will start to move once past it. (Wiring has always been least exciting for me, which is why Brent handles 90% of it) 🙃
