When I was a little boy we were on a farm party line. My mom taught me to take my right hand , palm up, and look at my fingers. 2 shorts, a long, and a short was our ring. If that ring came up I had to quick find her and let her know that "our" phone was ringing. And yes I'm 67 years old and...

Thanks, I needed that!! In the rat race we live in it's great to sit back and remember the days when life was so much simpler.

Aftermarket. I found them marked 453L 412 on one end and the other end is marked 453L KD. If you find any info on them pass it on. It'd be greatly appreciated.

I have a nice set of 1.06 A-Body torsion bars for sale. They were slightly used when I bought them and I put less than 5,000 more miles on them. Bars only, no boots, and bars are marked. Asking $150 plus shipping from 68301.

I have a real nice set of 1.06 bars I just took out of my 70 Dart this winter. I put less than 5000 miles on them and when I bought them they were used but looked like new. Bars only, no boots and the bars are marked. $150 plus shipping. Interested?

I found out my 91 360 block was actually cut a little deeper than some blocks so I used a 1/4 inch cork gasket plus a thin metal washer and a homemade gasket made of fairly thick gasket material. This gasket is used to force the oil through the hollow bolt and keeps it from going between the...

I'm in the process of putting a shroud on my 22" Champion radiator. This is on a 70 Dart with a 360. The universal shroud I got tapers in the rear so I lost some fan diameter clearances. Was running a 18" mechanical fan but because of the taper I would have to drop to a 16" fan if I didn't...

This is just an FYI not an advertisement. I live close to Lincoln, Ne and went to Speedway Motors today to pick up a radiator shroud and decided to go across the street to the "Speedway Motors Museum of Speed". This museum is Awesome!!! It's over 100,000 sq. ft. of engines, race cars...

Thanks to all. I'll be installing a gasket and doing it right. I have till spring so no hurry. Thanks again.

I put a right angle oil filter adapter on my 360 and forgot to put the big thick bolt gasket between the block and the adapter. Questions: What purpose does this gasket have and can I run without it? Thanks in advance for any words of wisdom.

For anyone interested there's going to be a "inventory reduction" auction in a little town (80-100 people) about 20 miles from me. If interested go to auctionguy.com look under Nebraska and July 30,2016 for " Mopar Auction". He has a 70 Challenger 440 6-pak that is the main attraction and...

Can I squeeze a 26" radiator in without to much trouble? I can borrow a 26" and want to experiment with it before I go shopping. I figure 26" is better than 22" if it isn't to much hassle to get to fit. Any ideas or thoughts? Thanks again.

I have a 70 Dart, 318, auto, with AC. It has a 22" inch 2 row radiator , 19 inch HD clutch fan, 180" thermostat, 50/50 mix. The other day, about 85 degrees, going down the interstate at 70 mph and 2500 rpm I was running about 215 degrees. At 75 mph it went to 225-230. At 55-60 it runs about...

I'm from Nebraska and the way it is suppose to work is, first you register your home school and then each year you report on the curriculum you will be using for the year. (There are many to pick from.) We homeschooled my son till high school. We kept all his books and tests in case they ever...

Any thoughts as to gas mileage leaving the stock cam in and not making the TQ howl too many times?
