Yes a high volume pump will suck a pan dry but you would have to be 3 quarts or more low on oil. The engine would have to be higher than idle rpm for this to occur. This happened to my 440 this year and I first noticed it with oil pressure gauge flucuating between 75 to 50 psi at 2000 rpm and I...

I like the steel rims painted to match body color. The wheels on my black GTS are 15" and have the period look with the correct dog dish caps.

Still trying to cleanup a 1968 triple black H code GTS with a date code correct 440.

I have a 1968 GTS with a 440 and a full 2 1/2" dual exhaust system. I had the same issue as you and my solution was to install Flowmaster Exhaust Tips 15385. They look similar to the square slant cut stock tips and come with an excellent clamping system. The only small fault is that they have...

I am still confused, how can you delete a standard feature on a car and there is delete plates made when you ordered your car new in 1968. I found this on the internet and it shows the heater/defroster standard on the GTS...

Thanks for your input but wouldn't you you think it would be standard part and you would have to specify at the dealership for it to be deleted. I think less than a few of 1968 GTS'S would not have a heater/defoster

I need this question answered. Were there any 1968 GTS's with a factory 383 built for US sales come without a heater? I know Dodge would build many odd combination cars but this was the top line Dart with less than 1100 383/auto trans built. Thanks for any info and the possibility of making my...

I run P215/65R-15 which are 26" high on my 1968 GTS with no problems.

Hello, I am the proud owner of this date coded correct 440 that was installed in an original H code GTS. This triple black car has disc front brakes, 15" wheels, Torque-flite 727, 3:55 sure grip, power steering, super stock rear springs, and a full 2 1/2 exhaust and now with the correct exhaust...

I called numerous places and either they wanted to sell the entire trim set or did not have the part. Low and behold one turned up on eBay for $4.99. Just keep looking and who knows what will turn up.

Wanted drivers side A pillar top trim for a vinyl top 68 Dart GTS. It is the short chrome piece with one screw hole and one locating pin.

I would stay with black to match the vinyl top.

I was quite pleased with the Ford 8.8 when I put it in a S10 with a 350 V8. Just remember you will need the drive shaft end to match the pinion yoke and maybe another short side shaft plus machining to make the differential center in the car. What is the rear axle length?

I use the driver's side plug for the large bell shaped aftermarket Auto meter electric oil pressure sending unit and the passenger side gallery port for the stock oil pressure sending unit for the dash light.
