My First EBody ever...

[6bblgt]

it was a factory part originally used on 1964-'65 HEMI engined Mopars - it was and has been sold by Chrysler Corp. by their performance outlets for decades, not by the aftermarket

it is not splitting hairs - it is a factory part not an aftermarket part

Now I'm a little confused .... Are you saying the above pictured P4286900 water pump housing is an original 1964-65 Hemi part ?

the original '64 unit has a single boss for the early style alternator bracket, the part number(s) & configuration has changed more than once

[anlauto]

It's a P-part. P428---- started much later than the 60's. It is an over the counter part available at a Chrysler dealer, it is listed in Direct Connection and Mopar Performance parts books. It is not a part that came on a lightweight Hemi back in the 60's on the assembly line.

That's what I was thinking but Dan had me confused for a bit, now I see what he's saying !

Look at what I started!?!!

Look at what I started!?!!

It's all part of the education process 

[gpm6367]

Ok educate me. Is this carb correct for a 71 383 4spd R/T? List 4668 and date is 2250 which is August 13th and my motor was assembled September 2nd and car is assembled September 8. I think the numbers line up well.

Damn is 4668 383 auto?

[6bblgt]

yes, 4668 is for the '71 383HP auto

e-body 383HP w/manual transmission (3 & 4-speed) without SHAKER (no N96): 4667 or 6191

[gpm6367]

So no shaker I need a 6191?

[6bblgt]

No, those are both without SHAKER (N96),
I'm not sure why there are 2 numbers for the '71 carbs  is it early VS. late? or some other change?

[anlauto]

The 4668 one pictured is for an auto.

Your four speed car could have either 4667 OR 6191 as long as it doesn't have a shaker .

Ok so my shift pattern was siliconed on top. I need a bezel. I'd it one piece? I'm told I glue shift pattern in bezel and bezel to top of shifter. Seems like Bubba solution.

[ToxicWolf]

I did it by screwing a screw into the clear plastic and using the screw to pull it out with a pair of pliers. I then put in the correct five speed pattern for my trans and pushed the new clear plastic top on with my thumbs.

[6bblgt]

the shifter lever should have a square "knob" on the top that gets peened to hold the top bezel in place

it also appears your 4-speed top plate is not an orignal - also a "Bubba" fix

[JS29]

Silicone  I forget how but i think there is a roll pin of something that holds it on. Check with @MoparDave  or Classic Industries, I got a kit that had handles, bezel, and pattern. Might as well get a shift boot while your at it.

[anlauto]

Yup...lots going on there

[gpm6367]

Ok so I have no tab at top. I see.

What 4 speed top plate are you referring to?
