Looks just like a '75 Dodge Dart Sport I sold ~2008, except I didn't have a "Dodge" sticker on the quarter panels and had different tires/rims. The car went to the northeast and was that same powder blue with the half vinyl top, can't be a common paint code.

This was my first thought.

Welcome! What brand/size are those rear tires?

I'm trying to figure out the best way to feed a healthy 383 I'm getting ready to install into my '75 Duster. I currently have a 5/16" fuel line, which is just not going to cut it, especially since I plan on adding a 75-100 shot of nitrous at some point in the future. I was thinking about...

Thanks Jim, I don't know why I didn't think about re-pop being available. I found this at Year One: https://www.yearone.com/Product/chrysler-b-body/rq89 Looks like everything I'll need!

Still looking for the alternator bracket, spacers and bolts

Thanks, they have it. $25 a pop, but it sounds like quality paint (rated up to 700 degrees) and should only take one can for the engine.

I'm trying to find the mid-70's Chrysler Blue engine paint in a rattle can. I can't seem to find VHT, which I used in the past, in the proper darker blue that's correct for my '75 Duster. Any recommendations for a high heat period correct engine paint for my Duster? Thanks!

Still looking for the alternator bracket, spacers and bolts

Bought the above pulleys, but still need the alternator bracket, spacers and bolts.

Trying to get a complete matched set, so I know everything plays well together. Thanks

Trying to find a matched alternator bracket (including bolts and spacers), water pump pulley and crankshaft pulley for a single pulley alternator setup. My application doesn't have P/S or A/C. Thanks,

I did this on my Dart Sport ~20 years ago, so my memory is fuzzy on everything I removed. I do remember drilling a hole in the bumper shocks and securing them closed with some self-tapping screws. I don't remember seeing anything exposed that made it obvious that I modded the bumper.

I did this on a '75 Dart Sport and it moved back enough (fully collapsing the bumper shocks) to look like it was factory. Sorry, I don't have any pics of the car and it's long gone. I currently have a '75 Duster and will probably do this in the future, but my filler pieces are like new, so it's...

This will be my plan, as I've seen multiple people on the A-Body Big Block forum say the same thing. I've got manual steering on my duster and the 383 already had a mini starter installed. I use this forum for knowledge and experience from the people that have already been there done that, so I...

I’ve read numerous post while searching this site that said B-Body headers would work in a big block A-Body with clearancing.

I saw that same episode, which is part of the reason I'm not going to feel bad about "massaging" them.

I pulled out the 383/727 combo out of an old race car I bought. I'll be transplanting the drivetrain, including a built 8 3/4 rearend into my '75 Duster.

I weighed everyone's advice and thought about the power I'd lose and decided to buy some B-Body headers and do the minimum necessary clearancing. Much as I'd like to buy some TTI's, it's just not going to happen. That being said, any specific brands or P/Ns to buy or avoid?

I was thinking about the B-body manifolds, based on the information I’ve seen in this forum. They seem to be the ones that will work with the least amount of modifications.

The race car I bought that had this combo in it actually has a set of fender well headers on it. I just don’t know that I want to cut up my fenderwells to make them fit. The HP manifold that I’m looking at buying are $400, which is about the cost of the set of summit or jeg’s generic headers...

The HP manifolds look like they would flow fairly well for a stock manifold. The manifolds I'm looking to purchase are priced about the same as a Summit or Jeg's B-Body header.

I'm gathering parts for my 383 swap into my '75 Duster and have a question regarding exhaust. I have an opportunity to buy some '70 B-Body HP exhaust manifolds and am wondering how much performance loss and I can expect over a set of headers. TTI headers are not in my budget and I don't like the...

That sucks. Were you planning on taking it apart to inspect before installing?

I'm going this same direction on my '75 Duster (383, 727 & 8 3/4) and will be relying heavily on the Big Block A body tech forum to get me through the swap. Motor currently has elephant ears, as it was in a '70 Duster drag car, but I'm thinking schumacher mounts to help with alternator alignment.

No worries, I bought it for the drivetrain, not the car.

Thank you very much! I'll have to take a deeper look this evening after work.

The VIN tag is missing. Any locations on the body where there might be another VIN tag or stamping?

I picked up an old '70 Duster race car this weekend for $2500. The intention is to pull out the motor/trans and rearend and swap into my '75 Duster (pictured). History on the car, the owner built this car in early 2000 with a .030 383 (Keith Black pistons, ported factory heads, custom ground...
