So, I reinstalled the original front seats in the car over the winter... I like the lowback seat look. With the seat adjusted all the way rearward, it is a little uncomfortable to drive as my knees are bent. I'm only 5'7". How did tall people drive these things back in the day?? Was everyone...

Was chasing a nasty transmission leak. Replace the stamped pan for this beauty. So far, Knock on wood, it is dry under the car!!

I know, this is a A body forum but if someone wants these in their car, I figure I’d list them here first. From what I was told by the seller of the car I bought, these were out of a “71 Challenger. These were in the car that is my avatar. I installed the original seats and do not want these...

Are they worth it?? While my transmission pan is down, should I install one? 340 auto (obviously) 3:23 rear geared. Engine is near stock (purple cam, whatever that spec is). Plan is to upgrade the heads when funds are available. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

65 Plymouth valiant, 340, 904 automatic floor shifter. It has the “ball and trunnion” front joint on the driveshaft. Has anyone had any success in upgrading this type of driveshaft? I would like to keep this transmission as long as I can upgrade the driveshaft. I don’t plan on having big...

So, I know I need a front cable as the one I have is broke. The car has 2 new rear cables and it came with a new intermediate cable in the box.... What I do not have is the intermediate cable adjusting rod or connection clips. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to where I can...

So, it was a nice day yesterday and I took my “new” acquisition out for a ride. It wasn’t bad having no drivers side rear view mirror. But, one thing I noticed was that the turn signals do not cancel after turning the steering wheel. Was that a thing back then or do I have to look into this...

A little help please! I just picked up this car and it does not have a rear-view mirror on the driver's door... Anyone have a pick of what it is supposed to look like? I would like to get one and install it for the spring. Were these an option back then?? Thanks in advance!!

Hello everyone, just picked up a new to me vehicle yesterday. It’s a 65 Plymouth Valiant. Unfortunately it’s almost winter here and I may not be able to drive it again till spring . The plan for next year is just a “shakedown” year with a few minors “fixes” here and there. Here are a few pics.

Just delivered it this morning. It now resides in Beacon NY. I had a great time with it. It is just time for me/us to thin out the heard. I'll still lurk around from time to time. Thanks to everyone who has given me good, solid advice!

If you ran your fuel pressure at say 6psi, then bumped it up to 7.5psi, would it effect the air fuel ratio? Ie, make the engine run a little richer at different throttle positions.

How much is too much? With the driveshaft removed, how much should the output shaft move "up and down" or side to side if you will. Just want to make sure I do not have problems. Thanks!

Well, my Dart has an issue with keeping the battery charged up. Symptom: with a fresh battery, car starts and idles good. After ten minutes the idle goes to crap (it just dies). Try re-starting the car and it turns over like the battery is weak. Jump the battery with my truck and it turns...

In April's issue, page 64. First time I got a car in a magazine. Check it out!

I scored one of these units at Carlisle this weekend. On the center bolt there was 2 different types of gaskets on it. One was a small washer type (with a thin rubber coating on it), the other was just round cork. I take it that the cork washer goes in between the adapter and the block (on the...

I seem to be having a tough time locating a small block bell housing with a 4.807 bearing retainer hole. There are also plenty of bell housings with the smaller 4.3 holes.................... so my question/ thinking is, if I get a bell housing with the smaller hole and I do know a great...

Is there such an thing? I had aquired a tranny with this size bearing retainer. It was at a great price, (free), and would like to use it in my Dart. Any help would be appreciated.
