Yes, thank you. I’ve read mostly in the threads not to change anything, I wasn’t sure if it was changed for a good reason but I’ll stick with spec valve. So the bigger valve further away from source is not accurate? (FB page, I’ll stick with this forum for the right answers from now on,lol)

Finished the 717 rebuild for the GTS, finishing the first Challenger 717 rebuild and just decided to buy the whole second engine for Challenger cause it needed top and bottom rebuild. My question is about the carb settings: First Challenger engine has 1.5 needle valve with spec pop off. The...

THANK YOU! If you’re ever up in the Puget Sound area, let me know, we can hang out in the front yard [emoji1303]

Ya, that was an expensive accident. . Thank you for the reply with part numbers! You’re awesome. Where do I send tip money??

Was hoping I didn’t have to admit this but they “accidentally” got thrown out [emoji51] I was rebuilding 3 717’s at the same time, had to many piles and baggies and not enough labels. . It was the same night I spent 2 hours looking, flushing and counting down 7 of the 34 wrist pins that fell...

Will do, thank you! I’m a really big fan of your posts by the way[emoji8]

This is on the long side. Had so many questions through this process but didn’t post, just kept reading. Bought a 2000 challenger 2-717’s, single carbs. Compression was low in one engine 120, 35. Good in the other 134,135, decided to rebuild both anyway for the “experience” Started with...

Thank you, Appreciate the reply!

Is there a specific shop manual for a 2000 Challenger (5672) twin 717? I've looked through all the downloads and cant find that specific one. I've found parts lists and owners manuals for 2000 challenger, and a shop manual for 1999 Speedster (5678) but non for 2000 (5672) Looking for it so I can...
