Marietta, New York, United States
1974 dodge charger all original body. Original spare tire and jack original 14 inch rally rims with trim rings. The engine and trans are not original the car started as a 318 car. And now has a 440 block and 727 I USED CUSTOM MOTOR MOUNTS !!!! UNCUT ORIGINAL K MEMBER. Meaning converting back To small block. Would be very easy to do but any way the body is absolutely Solid as a rock the only rust bubble on the whole car is on the driver side rear fender. Above the wheel and is about the size of a dime. And that's it. Same with the underside. No rust or rot. At all. Clearly the car was never driven in the winter or not a NY car. original paint it's a beautiful metallic green. That really stands out and looks fantastic it's paint code G8 the car has a very nice white factory pinstripe. Down each side to match the white by all top the car also has factory hood pins I did remove the in car hood release and factory safety latch but I do still have both of these parts.I also painted the Valley pan And distributer cap the same G8 green as the body. And trimmed the edlbrock intake plus mopar performance polished aluminum valve covers in green see pics. looks very very sharp.the Interior is beautiful other that 3 small issues that Are stated further down. The trunk, floors, Hood doors, windows are all in fantastic condition.Everything works as it should in the electrical department with the exception of the wiper motor but all the lights flashers signals. Horn. And instrumentation works the Speedo is not hooked up because of having the incorrect nylon gear in the trans but the speedo does work, the car has the base model dash with the long rectangular speedo it's also a buckets and console car. She goes down the road straight. Front end is very tight no wandering at all due to frequent greasing front power disks read drums the factory power steering was removed to free up some space. But even with the big block it steers easy White vinyl top is in fair shape and could be replaced or could not. The headliner. Could be replaced. It's some what discolored. And has a mouse hole but the hole is hidden by the sun visor the dash pad over all is in great shape but it does have 2 small Cracks. This could likely be repaired. And not replaced And 3 small. Holes in the back seat I also believe these could be repaired with out replacing the cover each smaller than a quarter the engine is a 72 440 block. Bored 30 over. 4.10 stroke crank. From 440 source. H beam rods Stock length (.990 pin) JE flat top pistons and rings with butterfly valve cuts. 509 mopar purple shaft cam full roller timing set 915 heads. With light gasket porting. Auto meter tack and oil pressure gauges. 800 CFM edlbrock carb with no choke billet steel mains with a stud girdle plate. Kit from 440 source ( makes the bottom end stronger reduces flexing under high rpm an heavy loads ties the mains. To the block ) And all engine fashioners are ARP ( main studs , rod end bolts, head bolts, ) 8qt low profile deep sump gold milodon oil pan and correct pickup. And a high flow oil pump. Also a high flow aluminum water pump and edlbrock mechanical. Fuel pump good for up to 600 HP. Under the hood is very very clean looking all the electric wiring is nicely loomed. the fuel lines and vacuum line is done up in a polished simulated steel braid with a nice looking polished fuel filter as well as many polished bolts polished water neck polished throttle return spring and bracket. Ceramic coated headers pypes 2 1/2 inch x pipe exhaust With race pro mufflers. Factory 11 inch torque converter Custom worked by CTI in Nedrow NY the stall is aprox 2500 ( matched to cam) and the internals are all heavy duty .The trans is a reworked 727 full manual valve body. (No kickdown linkage ) brand new pressure plates. Filter bands adjusted. Completely gone thru and rebuilt by a professional tranny shop. The rear end is an 8 1/4. With 391 gears and a mopar sure grip I think It would be a good idea to put a 8 3/4 in or a Dana but not required. And if the buyer would like I have a 8 3/4 out I a truck that I will include. 3.23 open diff ( same as B body other than you would need to move the spring perches and no pinion snubber ) And their is somthing in the engine I can't put my finger on it the car runs ok Just has an odd sound to it. That I haven't been able to fully understand. So I will give you the absolute worst case. but it could be a much simpler problem. I believe it needs Bearings in the lower end but I'm not positive. As the Oil pressure is great at 50-70 psi I always ran brad penn penn grade the engine was never driven hard or driven much at all to be hones. Just to the Syracuse nationals last year a little around the show and back home. So maybe a total of 50 miles but keeping with I give you worst case info but it may not be that bad I will say the engine should be pulled disassembled and rebuilt. Maybe a more skilled and experienced mechanic. Could provide a better understanding of what the issue is and how to properly fix the problem but I will in NO WAY MISLEAD ANY POTENTIAL BUYER. AS TO WHAT EXACTLY THEY ARE LOOKING AT WITH THIS CAR good or bad. You will know everything I know even if it may hurt me as a seller. At the end of the day my word is far more valuable. As stated all the components of the engine are brand new. Like less than 100 miles brand new. They are also top on the line parts Something like 4200 was spent just in engine parts alone and that doesn't include machining costs ( line honed, bored .30 over , and deck truing) Also included is a second cam shaft and lifter set from comp around 570 lift I have the grind sheet just not right in front of my as I'm typing this posting to know the exact specs I also installed 600 lift double spring valve springs the car has an electric puller fan. Original mopar big block radiator and a custom double cooler tranny cooling set up that is very nice My asking price and willingness to negotiate price. Is reflective of the engine issues. I know people. Are generally unwilling to pay top dolor. For something that needs work. But I also know that this car with a nicely running big block would bring 15k or more so I'm not going to just give it away either. For me I just lost interest In cars I don't have the time to tinker like I used to and always spread my self thin plus I never have the time the car deserves so it's time for her to go and give some one else the chance to enjoy this wonderful carIt really is a great deal for any mopar or muscle car lover if you have any questions,would like more more pictures or a specific picture feel free to ask but I would encourage any potential buyer to just come look if you're able to Pictures do not do the car justice Ps the title is clean. I own the car no Leans On Apr-19-14 at 09:39:06 PDT, seller added the following information: I added more pictures showing the rear side windows my car has the full size roll down windows not the little ones or the louvers I think the best looking of the 3 the vinyl top goes all the way down to the deck lid I also lowered my reserve price to 5k |

Indications of 825 hp and emissions issues for Hellcat called 'speculation' by Chrysler
Tue, 16 Sep 2014The 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is probably one of the hottest cars of the moment mostly because of its insane, 707-horsepower supercharged V8. However, there are conflicting reports coming out that the powerplant might be having problems with its emissions compliance and may be capable of even more power.
Jalopnik says that an unnamed source within Fiat Chrysler Automobiles told it that the Hellcat was having problems meeting emissions standards at its 707-horsepower tune. The person claimed that the automaker has been testing the V8 with different types of sensors, possibly to make it a bit cleaner in the future. Autoblog spoke to SRT spokesperson Dan Reid, and he said about the claimed poor emissions, "It's totally speculation."
The source also claimed that the Hellcat had been dynoed at a monumental 825 horsepower, internally. Based on the other rumor, though, it's hard to imagine the engine being emissions compliant like that. Autoblog also asked Reid about this speculation about more power and was told, "They are totally speculating about that."
2019 Dodge Charger SRT revealed in spy shots before reveal
Fri, Jun 8 2018Last month, Dodge teased the updated 2019 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat and its new grille with air intakes. Now we get to see it before its full debut thanks to these spy shots. We can see that the grille is one of the few things that has changed for the 2019 model year. It also appears to have a new hood that has extractor vents farther back than on the current model. We can also see that this new grille is on an SRT 392 Scat Pack model, not the Hellcat teased a month ago. This seems to imply the grille will be applied to all Charger SRT models, or at least offered as an option. Aside from the grille and the hood, the rest of this new Charger looks like the outgoing version. The bumpers, spoiler, side skirts and lights all seem to be carryover. As such, we're not expecting anything else to change radically under the hood or chassis. There's a possibility one or two engines pick up a few horsepower, but we don't expect much more than that. If anything else changes to the 2019 Charger, it will probably consist of colors, options and maybe even another trim level. We'll know more about it when it makes its official debut this summer. An updated version of the Challenger will be revealed at the same time. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

Chrysler recalls AWD 300, Charger, Ram 1500 over ZF transmission
Tue, 24 Dec 2013What do the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Ram 1500 all have in common? Yes, they're all Chrysler products, and two of them are based on the same platform. And we're sure you could find more similarities between them all, but the common trait we're looking at here is that, while they all come standard in rear-drive form, they're also available with all-wheel drive. And it's the transmission in those models that's the subject of the latest recall notice issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The output shaft on the eight-speed automatic transmission supplied by ZF to Chrysler for the AWD versions of the 300, Charger and Ram 1500 is apparently prone to fracture. That in the end could leave the vehicle without power and could, according to the NHTSA investigation, increase the chance of a crash. The vehicle could also roll away if even if left in Park without the handbrake applied.
That's why Chrysler is calling in 4,194 examples of those three models from the 2013 model year. Dealers will be responsible for inspecting the transmissions and, where necessary, replace the entire unit. See the full recall notice below for all the details.
