KYB list the upper mount as 12.8mm x 41.3mm, the MA709 is L1 5/8" id and 1 5/16" or 15.875mm x 33.3375mm MA709 L1 mount Monroe gas shock LS39 mount

Yes I agree, it looks a good fit the gas shocks spec's for the rear of a J body are length 18.625", Comp 11.375" and travel 7.250" and the MA709 is Length 17.375", Comp 10.75" and travel 6.625" it looks somewhere in the ball park, is the eye at the top compatible with the Chrysler one?

I found these that look similar but they would be upside down when fitted to my J body, can air shocks work upside down? Monroe MA700 Shock/Strut Max Air Twin-Tube Rear Pair | eBay

What my plan was not to hold weight with them, I want to put one on the right side, see video

Hi Everyone, I am after some air shocks for my 1983 Cordoba, anyone got anything lying around or know where some may be who would like to help a fellow moparian in NZ :) Thanks Bruce

So it seems there really is nothing in the specs, the only true answered are the combos on the dyno or seat of the pants at the track for proven parts that work together?

Hi Guys, I have been laying low for a while, I have been thinking and thought would start a debate over RPM range, when you buy an intake it is rated from idle to 5500 eg performer, then the performer rpm 1500 to 6500 and cams are rated something similar. Lets start with intakes - What's this...

BTW - The gen 3 hemi is coming up 20 years old now!!! Can you believe it! When did it hit the market 2002 for the 2003 models, so that makes it 2022 which ain't far away! Happy Birthday 20th to Gen 3 Hemi :)

Hemi V8 - I have seen various ideas why from MDS turning oil off to lifters to the center oil feed under the camshaft stopping the splash feed to the cam at low RPMs (Hence my comment good for a jet boat motor at 5000rpm) As for dropping valve seats thats got to be a Chrysler cock up there as...

Yeah I do have a 6.1 hemi, it came to be through my friend wanted it and didn't have the cash so I bought it then he changed his mind and now I have it, I have no use for it nor do I want it! its at the machine shop, it needs a sleeve after dropping a valve seat or something before I got it! I...

This is my take on injection, is it better yes and no, for drive ability and cold weather use I think way better, for all out performance carb better, for hot rodders like us and our car is a weekend summer car then carb is fine, so what I have to warm up for 5min before I give it full noise...

I have imported the car, 2 x 360 magnums, 1 x 8.25" rear end 3.21, LSD unit, all parts to rebuild my 360 engines, intake, eq heads even though were made in NZ, lots of miles on them before I got them lol, carbs, sway bars, shocks, etc I think I own a share in a shipping company! No LHD cars...

It is a challenge, all my parts I have had to import from the USA, then wait months to get it, there has been a really really helpful guy on here I owe him lots of thanks for helping me and AJ for all his help setting up my car. As for the shape of the world it makes no difference whats going...

With AJ/Forms help I have got the current engine dialed it really nice for the street! He is a whizz with carbs and engines!

What I do have is a really nice standard bore 360 magnum block, indy x heads with stock size titanium coats valves, mopar performance valve springs and retainers to allow for up to 600 lift, crank been ground 10/20 and stock pistons/rods plus my 221/224 .507/.533" lift on 110 LSA, 770 street...
