72 duster resto
Been out of commission for a while with way too much side work going on.
Updates since I last checked in:
- Sold the ol' slant and 904 to @Red Stripe for his project valiant :thumbsup:
- Cleaned up the valves
- Prepped the block for paint
- Shot primer coat
I have this awesome retired neighbor of mine whose a wealth of knowledge on mopars. He took a look at everything and gave me a bunch of tips yesterday on various parts I have collected. Notably, on my 750 holley to swap the black spring that operates the vacuum for the secondaries to kick in. he said the black springs are super high tension and those secondaries don't kick in til far too late unless you swap it out. Suggested I swap out the cam for a lower lift profile and the airgap intake manifold for something more streetable, and suggested installing a 90 degree oil filter adapter to help me out since i'll have headers. All good input, so next step is trying to distill down what I actually want out of this build.
Once I have some side work completed i'll be back in the garage to spend that cash lol
