For Mopar, Deluxe Slant Six Distributor Drive Gear Installation Kit - 1960-1987 | eBay Got the whole installation kit, Under $20.

Princess Valiant, your mailbox is full.

I am sorry for the delay guys, I ran out of the 3/8 bolts. Everything is shipping this weekend. PM me here if this is causing and grief.

The timing covers will physically fit between all the different years and sizes of the slant sixes. The thing to watch out for is the timing tab. It is in different places for different years, some are welded on to the cover, some bolt on.

The bolts are 3/8-16.

OK, I finally found the pics I had of the Magnum hose on a slant six.

Here are some pics of the tube/pan junction. The tab on this particular tube was bolted to the engine mount.

FYI, the trucks have a dipstick tube that goes into the oil pan itself. The good news is that after unbolting the tube supports, the tube will pull right out of the pan. You will not need to remove the oil pan. If I recall, there is a tab bolted to the motor mount that secures the tube in place.

Here are the numbers in case you dint wanna watch the video. N/A: 230 peak HP and 287 FP torque 6(?) pounds boost: 325 HP and 400 FP torque 11 pounds boost: 402 HP and 517 FP torque

It is much easier with the hood out of the way. I have pulled many engines by myself. Keep the link between the hoist and the engine as short as practical. Start lifting. If the hood gets in the way, that's when you remove the front bolt from each side of the hood (where it bolts to the...
