Hi Guys

I have been having a hard time with the Mopar Performance aluminum valve covers and the fastening studs/nuts on my 440.
I bought a stud and nut kit at Summit because I thought it would make it easier to locate and fasten the valve covers down….

Hello

Does anyone know which fasteners attach the front valance to the fenders on a 1974 Cuda and the valance insert to the valance?

Thanks for any info.

Hello

I’m almost done with my 74 Cuda clone project and two things I need to find are RH and LH windshield wiper arms and a pair of front seat belts.
Does anybody know if those items are interchangeable with other Mopars besides E bodies?
That would make it much easier to find some for sale.

Thanks for any info.

Hello

I have a ’74 Cuda and I have been looking for a front license plate bracket that will just bolt on.
I have seen that Year One makes them for Challengers but not sure that would just bolt on to a Cuda.
I could probably drill the front bumper and the bottom lip of the front valance but it might make the plate hang at too great of an angle to please the cops. A bracket would probably look better.
If someone made an offset bracket that would bolt on that would hold the plate straight up…

Hey all

I’ve got a 22″x4 row champion radiator with a dual electric fan shroud for the radiator.
Does anyone here know what U-clip or kepnut would work to secure the shroud to the radiator?
Bolt size, and reach info for the U-clip would work great because I haven’t any idea what to use.
Additionally, whenever I ask the people that sell the shroud and radiator, they haven’t a clue either. It’s like they have never done it before. One would really think they ought to know….

Hello

I have been puzzling over the steering column in my ’74 Cuda. I suspect either parts may be missing or I have a column from another year.
There is very clearly something wrong with it and the exploded view I found for that year does not seem to have a lot in common with what I have got.
My problem starts above the steering box coupler and before the column goes through the firewall.
The “jacket” is the outer tube that the actual steering column fits through and I have a sleeve or…

Hello

In addition to my power steering pump needing to be worked on, my lower power steering column just above the coupling seems to be missing a dust seal and bearing or bushing.
I have a .pdf manual but the exploded view I have isn’t very good and I can’t tell exactly what it needs and how it should go together.
Does anyone have a good exploded view or pictures and maybe a parts list for that portion of a 1974 or compatible years Cuda steering column?
