Hose routing and connections.

Excellent thanks so much! Is that in shop manual?

Who sells correct throttle cable?


Skdmark

Those images are from the 1971 Dodge Chassis Service Manual.
There's a pdf of it in the e-bodies.org library available for download if you don't have a hard copy.

For a throttle cable, I would remove yours and measure it's overall length.
Then, I would contact Roseville and compare the length to what they carry for this application.

The diagram is for a 70?

I don't have the same return spring bracket.

How is that pcv line run? In front of? Not under?


Skdmark

Return spring bracket appears to be incorrect.
For a 71 383 it should have a hole in the middle. The hose runs through the hole.

Interesting as someone told me this one was correct.

Is it repopped?

Mine is a 1970 383 RT. This is the correct bracket and PCV hose routing for my car. Yes, the bracket is readily available.

Yes. See the link to Roseville in my post.
I have the same bracket on my '71 383 as headejm and the picture I posted from the ICCA manual.

Got the pic.  Could be yours is NOS but for a 2 bbl.  This though is from a '70/383, but I would be surprised if there was a difference.

There's a lot of pressure on that choke holding it closed. Is the choke adjustable?

Ok do I have the wrong throttle cable or am I just missing a pin and clip ?
