    how many cars do you have?

    Thread Back From The Dead! I'm at ten, but there's no way I'm the league leader on this one. 94 TCD Ram 2500 - the workhorse 82 D150 - my problem child - slant, 833OD 69 Dart GT - 30% done to be road worthy - 340, 727 66 Valiant - a keeper, getting a full rebuild - slant, three on the tree 66...

    [FOR SALE] cast crank 225 /6 long block core $50

    Just as info, yes this is a hydraulic head. I did that same conversion to a solid cam in mine, it works fine.

    I saw my first Tesla truck today.

    I saw one recently on one of our local back roads. Ugly as sin - I wouldn't have one if you gave it to me.

    Swapping 72 360 Truck Engine Into A 65 Slant A Body?

    A better radiator. Early A V8 center link, gas pedal with cable, and engine mounts. As said above, mounts are different for 273/318 and 340/360. A fat wallet for exhaust. Better front suspension and brakes. Bigger rear end. And more that I'm not recalling at the moment.

    (Warm) Air intake hose

    If you can't find it elsewhere, try locating the heater duct that goes to the defroster vents that is the correct diameter. I got some at the local NAPA for a pretty decent price.

    [WANTED] AM or AM/FM radio with chrome push buttons and also has the knobs

    I have this one that according to what I was able to determine, came out of a 67 Fury, but who knows for sure? I've bench tested it and everything works as it should. It comes with the rear support hardware too. Shoot me a PM if interested.

    Headers vs. Manifolds

    This might be a case of using the wrong part name, but I thought this was worth mentioning to make sure you get the right parts. Your info above says you plan to get B-body headers. The tips in all the responses talk about the viability of B-body manifolds.

    [WANTED] Passenger side beanch seat, seat back release cable

    If you are looking for the original part that's one solution. If you want to make your own, I've replaced the inner wire with stainless steel wire before which worked quite well. SS is pretty stiff stuff, sort of like music wire. It will bend, but it will also hold its shape. You can find the...

    Forum names explained.

    When I retired I decided my long-delayed desire for a fun 60's car was going to get filled. I had a 67 Dart and a 73 Duster way back in the day, and while I like other cars too, I have a stronger affinity for Mopars. After much searching and evaluating, I decided I wanted a 66 Valiant, and...

    Slant 6 timing cover

    I believe so. I haven't seen any differences in them between all the year class engines I've seen.

    Best way to lift a slant 6 engine block ?

    X2 on this ^^^. I got one a while ago and have used it twice now. It's well worth the asking price.

    PNW Slant 6 engine rebuilder?

    It's about a hundred miles away, but Somers Machine in Vancouver did two of mine.

    Dickey Betts - RIP...

    We have lost one of my all-time favorite performers, Dickey Betts. Whether solo or his decades with the Allman Brothers, I could listen to him endlessly. RIP sir, you made a difference in this world.

    Warning about counterfeit parts

    Guess what, Speedmaster? I'm the smallest of customers you had, (emphasis on HAD). But there's no way I'd buy another Speedmaster product.

    speedmaster stuff pulled from Summit racing shelves

    Kudos to Broader for bringing this to light. I've purchased a few things from Speedmaster before, but never again. There is no way they can "explain" how this accidentally happened. Good on Summit to dump the entire line.

    [WANTED] '62 Dodge Lancer Disc Brake Conversion

    That's an 8-1/4 rear end, a good thing with the large bolt pattern and yes, those are drums. I believe those should be 10" drums but that should be confirmed by measuring. It looks like the front end is all original, which would mean small bolt pattern and 9" drums. That is way cool, I'm jealous!

    [WANTED] '62 Dodge Lancer Disc Brake Conversion

    Hey Ian, I'm not sure if I mentioned it when we talked, but I have a full set of Kelsey Hayes front discs (SBP), as well as a full set of 73+ discs (BBP). I was going to suggest you go the BBP route with the 73+ so your front wheels match the rears and you don't need to carry two spares.

    Dog Attack

    I don't know what Mexican law is, but up here they frown on someone carrying a weapon. It's a bit goofy, a concealed firearm is mostly OK, but a knife or club is viewed differently. A baseball bat might be considered a weapon, a walking stick is not. I bought a piece of some kind of exotic...

    Looking for used SB cam bearings

    Howdy folks. I want to make a bench cradle to be able to measure and clean up a couple of cams. I'm looking for someone who might have some SB cam bearings that came out of a rebuild. Used is fine if they aren't destroyed. Please shoot me a PM with pricing if you have a set.
