Ok..I'm still lost...I've read this MCG article 4 times now and don't see the connection...Maybe I'm naive or not good at reading between the lines. This Frank guy makes no mention of Team Valiant...

Team Valiant has more then proven themselves by creating the top scoring car of all time...Why they feel then need to come on here to defend themselves or their project to anybody is beyond me. Franks article suggests to everybody to do their own research and come to their own conclusions, which Team Valiant has done repeatedly.

Franks article also states that he has never done any research on 318 or slant six cars and feels he's never had the need to...
The assumption that all cars are the same, and that if rubber gaskets are found on slant six cars that all 340 or 440+6 cars had them as well, can not be made....
I think that is the only point Frank is trying to make.

I don't see/read any under lying "jabs" at Team Valiant. , but then again maybe I don't know the whole story or background of these people involved.

Heres my 72 Charger 318 that is totally unmolested except for recent plug wires from the originals. The picture tells the truth that a rubber gasket was used on this particular production motor.

All the bickering aside I kinda wish some people in this thread would come back to this site or get unbanned. They were very informative on information.

I agree. Lots of valuable information has been learned and ALL of us are missing out. I openly admit that I do not know everything there is out there that the world of Mopar has to offer and can learn something new everyday! Even with the exhaust thread that I had started, I learned a lot of info that I did not know before and for some reason, it got deleted.

the chally and the valiant are both top notch! it always disapoints me when i see all the arguments on this site. when i was younger around 80-81 i got my first car it was a 68 charger nothing special back then but to me it was the bomb! all my buddy's thought i was nuts! chrysler was going down the tubes they were not racing much anymore in fact they were not cool. but we had a small group of buddy's that all helped each other to keep our junk running because we wanted to be different from all the camaero and mustang types the were on the road at the time! they could buy anything they wanted in the aftermarket even back then! as for us well those of us who have been around for a while got to know how to find what we needed either at the junkyard or we made it ourselves! that is what made us a bit better in my eyes it never came to us easy we had to make it happen! when i hear someone rip into another guy over something as trivial as a hose clamp or a valvecover gasket i am floored! i mean really? quite honestly get over it! rip some chevy guy or a ford dude or better yet just leave! the rest of us are trying to enjoy the mopars here!

I didn't realize it had been over 4 years since I posted those first pictures. It was really neat to see the Challenger being assembled @ Steve's shop.

Did Dave ever put together a restoration book for the 1970 Challenger R/T?
