For part two, we address the mounting of the two information display screens that are provided with the Dakota Digital HDX Series instruments. Finding a mounting location was simple once we saw that Dakota Digital had several options.
Project Windstorm: Subtle Touches – Part 1
While we love the look of our classic Plymouth, there are some things that we wanted to change simply because they just had to be done. One of those things was our instrumentation: it was fine the way it was, we made it better.
Project Windstorm: It’s Time To Test Fit Parts – Part 1
Experience is everything, and sometimes that experience is gained from mistakes. We pulled from that experience decided to start test fitting parts now, so that our history won’t repeat itself when it comes time to lower this engine into the car.
Project Windstorm: Sorry, But We Have To Clean Our Cat
The Hellcat Redeye engine is home, and it’s time for some clean up to make it look like new. The before and after is a good showing of what some elbow grease and determination will do for you.
Project Windstorm: Our Belvedere is Getting Catty
The Rolling Stones sang, “You can’t always get what you want,” and while we get the meaning behind it, we didn’t expect it to happen to our engine build. So instead of crying over spilled milk, we went big, because we had already gone home and didn’t want to do that again.

There’s more to your cooling system than just buying a new radiator. If you don’t maintain your cooling system and neglect the coolant, it might void your warranty.
If You’re Cold, They’re Cold – Let Them Warm Up?
The argument is old, but it still comes up every year: should I let my car warm up before I start driving it? We didn’t have a choice in the 1960s, but today’s EFI systems don’t need it.

Aftermarket gauges are not only more functional than the original gauges in classic cars, but they’re often far more appealing. We wanted to take our gauges a step further, and create something that nobody else had, so we reached out to Dakota Digital.
RIP: A Legend Lost, And The Day He Honored His Word To Me
We lost an icon in the automotive world. Bob Riggle, who piloted the Hemi Under Glass was 88. I had the privilege to interview him, and keep one of his secrets.
Project Camaro: Stopping On A Dime With MP Brakes
Any performance car should have better brakes than what they had in the 1970s, but you don’t always need the biggest. We called on MP Brakes for our 4-wheel disc brake setup for our Project Camaro.
