I found out Why....

Will the smaller canaster U find on C bodies have enough Vacuum for the headlights on the Charger?

[squeakfinder]

I keep thinking a juice can of the same dimensions would work but I've never tried it. Not sure how the valve is mounted for one thing. Allthough in this case it looks like you have a pretty good view of the inside.

Smaller can should work...

don't know about C-bodys   , but these guys sell repoped charger ones

I think a grapefruit juice can, a little brazing rod and some black spray paint would fix that right up.

I've tried it and it is on my car.  Tomato or Pineapple, your choice.
cost me a little over 2 dollars.  But i'm guessing with a screen name like XS29J, a juice can ain't gonna cut it.

The mounting bracket would be simple enough to make and braze or JB weld on. But assuming the valve is still good, does it just slide in the hole?

69 Chargers have headlights?

You cut a hole big enough for the valve to sit on without falling through, then you JB the crap out of it.  I used the original bracket as well and JB'd that to the can.  Make sure the valve is not centered or it will not clear the battery bracket that supports the tray.

    Sooo, punch a hole in the can, dump out the grapefruit juice and save it for mixing with Vodka (because it's not any good anything else). Then a use hole saw and hopefully not distort the can. Got it thanks!

needing replacement?

[TylerCharger69]

Or.....the vacuum port to the canister can be hooked in directly to manifold vacuum....only thing is, you wont have any backup vacuum when the engine is shut off.....i deleted my canister
