Thanks Beepbeep, I will then assume that the one on the car is incorrect?

6 cyl. used 2 port, 8 cyl. used 3 port.


Amazing how an unchallenged lie can become the absolute truth.

Took this pic . from my " NOT RESTORED " '70 T/A. If you look real hard through the rust you will see the screws. I've had this since early '73 so I know it hasn't been touched. Man I wish I had some Money! I'd be on it! Hope this helps. Kev




My Blue 70 Challenger is an early car and had 1 repaint in the 80s but is basically unmolested. I wonder if they varied at the factory any. Mine does match yours on your T/A.

Excellent as always Beepbeep. Looks like I need to get the correct 3-port breather, as well as the correct fuel tank.

Just a FYI, none of the repo tanks come with the expansion tank, just need to remember when filling not to top it off so there is some expansion room, otherwise it will make its own, usually all over your quarter panel.

Maybe the car in Moparnuts picture is not an untouched original, but a restored car?

It was still good to have the picture. Thanks

Also notice in the B5TA pic that the second grommet does not have a hole through it.

Good thing my original grommets came in a box, I bet that's tough to find.

I happened to run across these pics today of a '70 Cuda my buddy had sitting at his shop.

Last picture.

This particular car came out of Ron Slobe's several years ago...

Thanks. Those screws are positioned like the other original cars posted.

Can you post a few more pictures of the vent attaching to the tank? I have a 73 challenger, but removed all the emissions stuff and cannot determine how everything fits. I have the kit from year one and the last pictures that were posted look like part of the kit.

More pictures would help!!!!

I am new to this forum.

Thanks

Are you using your original 73 challenger gas tank with the 4 vents in the front?

What emission stuff did you remove?
