I just pulled out my rear seats looking for the build sheet for my car. I didn’t find that but attached to the back of the seat back I did find a metal tag wired to the seat spring.
The tag measures about 7/8" high X 3 15/16" wide. The uppe…

I just installed the correct thermoquad 6319S carb on my 73 Challenger 340 AT with a stock intake manifold. There is no choke assembly on my car presently so I searched for the part number for the choke assembly on the E-Bodies.org on line parts catalog and came up with part number 3698355 for the 6319S carb.
When I search for part number 3698355 it says that is for “440 400 360 4BBL” and it says it’s NOT compatible with my car.
Can anyone tell me the correct choke assembly part number?

The previous owner had rebuilt the motor & has done some changes to it.
He put in Silv-O-Lite pistons that look to be 10.2 compression.
Also Comp Cams Extreme Energy Cam & Lifter kit # CL20-223-3 (Advertise duration 268 int / 280 exh Lift with factory rocker ratio = 0.477 int / 0.480 exh) He called it a lumpy cam.
Also Speedmaster aluminum heads part # PCE281.2146 w/ 2.02″ Intake / 1.620″ Exhaust
It has a Holley model 4160 600cfm square bore carb on an adapter plate on the stock…

73 Challenger 340 AT doesn’t seem to have the power I think it should

They guy I bought my Challenger from didn’t reinstall the AC when he rebuilt the engine. I just went to install the compressor & found that the current alternator bracket won’t work with the AC compressor.
I am trying to find the part number for a small block with AC alternator bracket and any ideas on where I might find one.

I have a weird issue with the right front parking light.
Light works fine in running light position
Light works fine in headlight position
Light works fine as right signal light
Light doesn’t work at all with the 4 way hazard lights. The other 3 lights work fine. I thought maybe grounding with the extra bulb(s) so I tried to ground the socket but that did nothing.
I did notice that the dome light was blinking as well.

Any ideas where I should start looking?

Trying to work thru the issues to get my Massachusetts inspection sticker. Wipers must work. On low speed the wipers work fine. On high speed they barely move and only for a short distance & then they stop moving. From low speed when I shut them off the wipers just stop where ever they happen to be. They do not park.
I saw the post about bad grounding & jumped in a separate ground wire but nothing changed. My switch seems to me to be a two speed (Off, Low, High) it is part # 3488 773.

73 Challenger two wiper issues won’t park & high speed barely works

I have a 73 Challenger base that only has lap belts. A friend just told me Massachusetts has a new law that says what ever safety equipment the car had on day one must be in the car today at inspection time.
The front lap belts have a button on the male clip that I assume was probably for a shoulder belt. Can someone tell me if my car should have 2 point belts or 3 point belts? There are no holes in my headline that would indicate there ever was a shoulder belt so I don’t know if the lap…
