Plug Wires Melting!

I installed Hooker headers on my beeper about a year ago and I have no complaints except that they burn my wires within a few drive cycles. I have no clue what to do. I have heat shields on the boots and wires and it still melts through. Just replaced my wires again and the car is running great, but...

Re: Introduction

Here's a description from the Dealership Data Book (courtesy of Barry Washington / Hamtramck Historical) Just tried to email John, but the email failed. Must not have that address any longer.

Re: Introduction

Welcome to the Nest! You have a rare car there. Not because of the radio though. The A35 trailer towing package is one of, if not the most rare option on a 71 road runner. Only 14 runners were built with that package. From the VON you listed, 149421 I can tell I have your VIN number on file. I don'...

Re: Introduction

Thanks for the comments. Well, I finished the interior last summer, but I had to hold off anymore upgrades due to some student loans that have to be paid back.
