Hello again, thanks to everyone, I am getting some help!

I have run my fender tag through a few decoders and have been trying to piece back together my build sheet (I modified the 71 one with all of the info I can salvage), but there are some inconsistencies. I have the original punch card in great shape, I just need to get it read somewhere. Maybe someone can help, is the Heritage Museum the only place that can read them? I am finding some inconsistencies with the decoder values for some codes and I think it is because most of them go to '71 and I ave a '74.

The best one I have found so far is at Broadcast Sheet Codes but I do have a question about the B41. Does it mean that my RR originally came with 10" rear drums, or are most of the decoders I've found using older codes? The site I found above doesn't have anything about the rear drum on a B41, that might be why I like it. I also have a note on my Broadcast Sheet stating, "94 OIL UNIT", what is that?

Okay, these are my questions:
Can I have my "IBM Punch Card" broadcast sheet run somewhere to produce a new one?
Where can I find the most comprehensive lists of MOPAR broadcast sheet Codes?
Can someone point me toward help on reading the notes section of the broadcast sheet?

Thanks everyone for the help!!!

Find someone that used to do "key punch" back in the day.
Where can I find the most comprehensive lists of MOPAR broadcast sheet Codes?
Galen Govier's white books.
Can someone point me toward help on reading the notes section of the broadcast sheet?
No where that I know of you have to figure them out for your self and most are self explainitory.

B41 is the is the sales code for "front disc brakes with standard 10" rear drum brakes. Most hipo cars cam standard with 11" drums front and rear, but when discs were ordered they though that 11" rears were not necessary and it also had something to do with the proportioning valve compatibility.

Thanks everyone for the help!!!

Thanks for the reply! I am a computer guy by trade so reading it is not the issue, it is the program that interpolates what is read from the card. I'd love to get a copy of the code that was used there, I'd start building build sheets Chrysler Historical said they couldn't help here because I have a RR built in 74. I guess their records only go to 68. I think they might have misunderstood me though because I have the record, I just need someone to read it.


I think I might break down and buy the Galen Govier book. It would be good to have.

As for the brakes, the build sheet states that it is RR Size B25 and Disk B41 on the sheet. I thought all Roadrunners came with the HD brakes, but I could be wrong. That is another reason I would like to know the exact 74 build codes. The EBay auction mentioned below is also a B41 brake on that 74 with the 360.

Again thanks for all of the help, you all are making this hobby a little easier!

Thanks! It's funny because I posted a pic from that auction when I had some questions about the vinyl top. That dude either has the same B41 that I have, or they only think there are 10" brakes on it. I just know that mine are stamped 11" and have all 11" hardware so wither someone changed the brakes, or that B41 just meant disk brakes. I think I will have to buy the Galen Govier book

B41 on a 70-74 ebody is the code for disk-brakes, this code only appears on the build-shhet but not the fender tag.

I checked my build sheet and it also has B41 and B25 on it. My 74 has disc brakes(front) and 10" rear drums. The rear in my Runner is an 8.75. The rear in that RR on auction is a 9.25, the rear end I believe they used on the later 74's.
One other thing to consider - I have a full set of 11" brakes for the rear of my car. A lot of people back in the day would change out the 10 inchers for 11's.

Whether it appears on the tag or not depends on the year. What does and does not appear on a tag varies by plant, year and sometimes even time of year.

The B41 is on the fender tag as well, but it really doesn't make a difference. It is a St. Louis build, and the 11" brakes were probably an add on by one of the owners. It makes the choice for a disk brake conversion on the rear easier It's too bad I just spent money to rebuild one of them, it was missing the parking brake strut on the left. I'll run with these brakes until it is time, I figure the project will be done in about 10 years. Still wouldn't mind having the punch card read to get a new Broadcast Sheet made.

The galen book I have Chrysler corp.production option code book 1972-1974 says that the B25 are 10 X 2.50' RR brakes auto adjust (72-74) and the B41 reads (72)Front disc brakes drum rear.Then B41 listed again as (73-74) front disc brakes power/drum brakes The B 25 (72-74) are 10 X 2.50" rr brakes self adjust

You are correct.

I didn't realize we were talking about a 1974 models and i took my info out of the 69-71 book.

I seldom comment on anything newer than a 1971.

Sorry.

Thanks a bunch, I'll still buy the book though Seems like a good investment.
