    Does it come with a spacer to put the filter down lower also?

    1969 Valiant Diary

    '67 had VIN on pillar, '69 on dash frame; so maybe they swapped the dash itself.

    That looks like a '69 dash frame. And those look like '69 fenders? The damage you are referring to, is it just the header panel and radiator support? Does it look like the inner fenders have been replaced?

    1969 Race Dart w/ 426 Hemi- garaged for 45+ years

    I remember sitting inside my engine bay working on my '58 Apache 235 six. Yeah... not a V8 A-body thing, much less 440 or the 426 for sure.

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    What does that one look like, curious. I assume you will adapt the console or build one for it. I have a 2005 1500 with an Ecodiesel and the 8 speed auto. It has the rotary knob shifter with the +/- buttons on the steering wheel. I like the idea of the shifter, but would have been cool with...

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    Have you already purchased the controller? I have read good reviews about the TurboLamik from guys using them as standalone controllers swapping into other cars. It requires modification to the valve body.

    MOPAR VIRGIN's 1968 Barracuda Convertible RestoMod Journey

    Convertibles are just soft top notch backs. I like your color choice, very nice. Here is mine, a hardtop:

    My 1969 1/2 440 ‘cuda

    predates that web app... like Moparts and older mailing lists. I thought it was from a magazine article.

    My 1969 1/2 440 ‘cuda

    I have also heard that convertibles got them. I have also heard stories, especially on E bodies, where it is all over the place, like some cars had them rear, some both, some missing one...

    1969 Valiant Diary

    Do you want to have to hold on to the steering wheel to take turns or do you want a "proper" seat? Bench is fine for straight line or cruising w/ your girl, but otherwise not so. Honestly, have not made my final decision on that topic, but need to soon. Either way do the frame connectors and...

    1969 Valiant Diary

    What do you want the car to do? Daily driver? Economical? Race car? Autocross track or 1/4 mile? GT car / Pro Touring? Stock bench, stock style buckets, race seats? Stay with a Valiant dash, something custom, or Rallye dash like the Barracudas?

    New to Me 1968

    the 318 was never built as a performance engine. the heads were the limiter, it did not get the 2.02 valve heads the 340 came with. smaller cam and a little 2bbl. 727 is heavy duty, and heavier than the 904. I like A&A transmissions if you want to have something built. Home - A&A...

    New to Me 1968

    318 and 340 have same stroke at 3.31” A 318 has a 3.91” bore, and 340 has a 4.04” bore. That is a difference of 0.130”. You can’t bore a 318 that far. A “30 over” 318 is only 323ci. A popular combo is the 0.030” over 318 with a 4” crank. That is 390ci. Even better is a 0.030” 340 block...
