Speaking of.  I believe that mine is from an old Chrysler 300; are these interchangeable for those who don't particularly care about parts-number-level stockness?

Topher

I'm guessing they arrived ok. Thanks for the kind words.

The biggest difference I've found between the C body and the Charger motors is the size of the shaft hole in the gear. C bodies use a 1/4" x 1/4" shaft, and the Chargers use a 3/16" x 1/4" shaft. I'm working with my local fabricator to enlarge the hole for the C body shaft as I have a couple here to do.

If you're wanting to part with those cores pm me a price.

STILL working...Bob you sound like your expecting them to fail soon!   :smilielol:

Tator is the man.  When I first joined 66-67Charger board I was working on getting my headlights to rotate, Topher gave me his cell number to call if I ran into problems.  Called him on a late Saturday after noon and he was at a cook out, he took the time to answer my questions.  Plus he was still sober enough to help!   :smilielol:  J/K

The plating adds to the final tally.

Has something happen to Topher?
He was rebuilding my headlight motor for my 70 charger and was supposed to ship it out to me the week of Jan. 6th, Its been a couple weeks and still no motor in the mail. I have emailed him a few times and he hasnt replied back to me on any of the emails after the supposed ship date. He always got back to be within a day but since the email he sent saying when it would ship he hasnt replied to any. Didnt know if something happen to him or if i got played on the motor rebuild? I have seen nothing but good reviews for him so i dont think i got played but just started to worry about my motor now and my 200 bucks. Anyone able to help me out?
