    clutch rod

    What I'm looking for is the clutch rod that runs from the clutch pedal to the top of the zbar. I think they are specific lengths for each body style. I didn't know the clips where still available at stores, thanks for the info.:cheers:

    A body louvers

    Time has really flown over the past couple of months, and I have neglected to keep everyone up to date on the louvers. My apologies to all. I have struggled with several areas on this project, and am still pecking away at it. I find it easy to build proto-types, but ironing out the details...

    To me, it sounds like you have a car that hooks hard, which is what most people want. Thats what your suspension modifications are intended to do, and it seems you built it well for that purpose. If you want to burn rubber (one of my favorite past times:-D), you will probably want to change...

    From what you have said, I would guess that the car pulls good at higher speeds, right?

    318s don't have a lot of torque, and torque is what you need to bust the tires loose. With a stock stroke 318, an automatic trans, a sure grip, ss springs, and a pinion snubber, that 318 is gonna struggle to do what you want it too. You may simply be hooking up more than you expected to. When...

    Toyota Comericals

    Some say drivers should be able to stop those cars. If you have ever been behind the wheel of a runaway car, you know that its easier said than done. The first time it happened to me was in a 79 or 80 Firebird Formula. When I stomped on the gas, a plug wire got caught in the secondary linkage...

    Any spring plans for you Mopar?

    I have some nice wide BFGs for the back, just need to buy two wheels to put them on. Then maybe switch over to an overdrive 4speed instead of the one I have. It's fun in town, but highway driving is like punishment with the 391 gear. Also, hoping to hook up with the Hot Rod Power Tour this...

    Dart ID help

    Apparently, the current owner did some internet research, and has decided that this car has value. He has stated that the car is now not for sale. I really have no idea if this car is special or not, I've not gotten a look at it yet. Hopefully, he will change his mind, but until...

    I appreciate all the info. Trying to set up a time to go see it, but the guy is out of town a lot. If it turns out to be something cool, we'll post some pics later. Thanks again for the info, Rob

    Dart ID help

    I don't know. All I have is 3rd hand information that goes something like this: "It has bad paint, but the body is solid. It only has 50,000 miles on it and is a factory race car. Don't know if it's a big block or small block, but it has dual quads on it. Also, has bench seat with auto on...

    That's good info....what if it's a hemi Dart?

    Dart ID help

    Going to be looking at a Dart. There is an outside chance that it may be a factory hemi Dart, or maybe a factory big block Dart. (I know, it's probably a slant six car, but you never know til you look.) I don't know what to look for on the car to see if it is any of the above. Can someone give...

    440 Exhaust options?

    The 2.5" from Summit is a pretty good system for the price. I would use it again. Just fab your own head pipes, and your in business.:toothy10:
