Re: help needed with 64 440 resurrection please

OK, I did online reaearch on this and see it depends on intended use and horsepower and no "right or best" answer!  So we have 2 gas tanks and lines to choose from 1 set up for the 1/2" and one for the 5/16"!! Pictures I have and thanks for the link. I'll do that. Hopefully be this weekend we'll have her put back together. Mopar only drags are happening here Sunday so that we'll attend for sure. Thanks again, Ruth

Good progress report!

"Best" -- it depends. Performance Mopars had 3/8 fuel line/pickup. The 5/16 possibly could lead to fuel starvation at high rpm. Anyway, with a 1/2-inch fuel line you can be assured of fuel supply, even if you later decide to add a blower, nitrous kit,or whatever hi-po mods.

Maybe show a picture of the wiring "grey areas" and maybe light up some memories in someone here.
Your favorite photo host platform (e.g., Picasa Web Albums if you have a Google email address) or you can use the free photo host www.picupine.com to quickly post several photos.

Thanks,
