    Which Parking brake Cable Kit for 1971 340 Duster?

    Just to close the loop on this: I got under the car and found that it is the type with the intermediate cable. So, i ordered that kit from Inline Tube.

    Strange S60 Rear End Help

    If you have a weldor with a modicum of experience, they won't warp it by putting the perches on. I have welded perches onto a handful of 8 3/4 housings which are relatively thin stamped steel with no issues. My S-60 was fine after my welding job on the perches. Remember, the S60 is not a 1...

    Strange S60 Rear End Help

    When I ordered my S60, I told them not to weld them on and just ship them with the rear end. You really have no idea how to position it until the axle is under the car, and the car is on the ground with weight in it. I ordered mine through Dr. Diff, and he made it easy.

    440 Roller Cam suggestions

    It is REALLY easy to have a custom camshaft ground to meet your application and desires. I had Howard's make me a custom cam over the winter for my new 505 build. The specification and purchase process was easy and quick. I think it took around 10 or 11 weeks to get it after that. Just a thought...

    Which Parking brake Cable Kit for 1971 340 Duster?

    Thank you all for the replies. This Duster is new to me, and i have only had it for about 6 weeks. It is just a rough looking driver, but pretty original. I am just going through the little stuff it needs to be a reliable cruiser. A previous owner converted the whole car to the big bolt pattern...

    Which Parking brake Cable Kit for 1971 340 Duster?

    Can someone tell me whether my 1971 340 Duster has the parking brake kit with an Intermediate cable, or without? The cables under the car are missing - so I cannot see what it had. Just trying to figure out what kit to order, or how to identify which kit it originally had. Thank you!

    New carb finally arrived, with pic

    When choosing your power valve, remember, the higher the number, the earlier / quicker it will open. Also, it does not add fuel when the engine is idling - that is a wives tail. My ATM's both have 10.5 PV in them because my cruise vacuum was in the 12in-hg range. They had a 6in-hg one in them...

    New carb finally arrived, with pic

    I swapped to a pair of 650 ATM's on my Cuda right at the end of the season last year. They seem like a decent company, and have answered my questions when I have called. Can you post that jet conversion chart? That might be a handy reference to keep in my carb folder.

    My 340 getting 6 mpg

    What rear end gears are you running? If you are turning 3500 - 4000 rpm to maintain 65mph, theres your answer.

    I run a pair of these short stacks form PJ Motorsports on my junk. Velocity Stacks For Hot Rods Yes, you can make them yourself cheaper - but for me, there are tasks where I have more $$$ than time for!

    DOES YOUR NEIGHBOR ALWAYS WANT TO BORROW SOMETHING?

    I'm on 20 acres. We wave at eachother as we drive by our neighbors. That's pretty much it.
