Ok @George Jets I got a stupid question. Can you run the hei without mounting it to the bottom if the distributor like the kit does? Could you just ground it on the firewall or Inner fender like our mopar ecu?

Thanks. I will have to find a way to make a mopar alternator work. I have several from the 70s and 80s plus a couple magnum era ones. I'm sure I could just wire in an old style voltage regulator and it work. I may look into that hei conversion. I've heard good things about them I know...

Awesome thread! I'm getting alot of helpful information here for my d100 project! I plan on doing a 5.9 mag swap with a LA inspired look. The fuel pump idea is brilliant thanks to @Garrett Ellison for that one. I will most definitely do that. And the stand alone alternator I'll do too. Where did...

My condolences to you and your wife! I'm sorry for your loss

Im far from a professional but imo that is probably from the rings not been seated yet on a new motor! Mine did the same thing when the engine was new I could crank it over by hand and hear air escaping between the pistons and walls down to the oil pan. I freaked out of course. After the engine...

I really can't believe it's been 3 years ago already but here is my dart in her winter storage. Lol now that's its driving as long as there is no snow on the roads im gonna keep driving her.

That's an awesome story and a beautiful car you built with your dad! Those memories are priceless! I'm curious you still have the car?

This morning helped a good friend work on his camaro ( pictured) then took the Dart to a car show in town and then took it cruising afterwords. Went and got a steak and Applebee's! Had a fun day.

I love that truck!

Yea it was its fixed now. The mounting holes on my bumper are on the bottom and my plate on had holes on the top! I drilled holes in the bottom to fix it. I bought a plate adapter and it still wouldn't work so I just drilled the plate.

75 dart

Following along! I like that magnum! Did you get a garage? That thing is huge !

I don't like it either. It looks ans feels different. The like agree disagree are different im lost lol

Why?? Thats crazy to me. He had to have been able to sell it for more than scrap price.

I used the mopar spray bomb paint. It works ok I suppose. It seems its been on a year and it seems to be holding up. I did have to retouch the intake because of a fuel leak that peeled the paint off. The last pic is the most recent after the touch up the other two is when it was new.

@89on35s bought his duster in Texas and took it back home to Canada. Im sure he will chime in and help out with more info.

Dang those are some cool old photos! Is that in the forth pic down?

1964 plymouth belvedere or savoy. Id take a four door i don't care.

Found them this is what I used they fit on my 340 valve covers

I found some at rock auto. Let me go back and look for the part number. I bought like 5 of them when I finally found them because it took me forever to find the correct one that fit right.

I sent you a Pm @66340SEDAN

It blows my mind how cars that nice wind up in a scrap yard! That Valiant looks mint! Those 75 darts look ten times better that what I started with. Id love to have that grille out of the 75 but shipping would kill me coming that far plus its hard to know if it would make it in one piece

Im subbed.

Yea I agree. If you absolutely want one and are willing to pay 750 for a core you can buy them. The 150-200 dollar pick and pull days are gone unfortunately

I want get a couple spare 318s to put back for later builds. Believe it or not any la engine is getting more difficult to find in my area. And when you do find them people want alot for them. I got lucky last year and found 2 360s really cheap and bought them both. And I have a 360 mag Id like...

They are tapered slightly but the looks like the maximum difference is .01 I would have that block bored just from the way they look. My taper on my 360 was alot worse than that it took .060 over to get the taper out of 1 and 8 on mine the bores cleaned up at .40 but there was still a ridge on...

What are your plans for this engine? I love that photo.

Cool glad you got it free.

I was referring to agreeing with you on non car related topics. Yes you are very knowledgeable and have helped alot of ppl on here with engine stuff including me and im always grateful and appreciative. But in none car related topics like this one you are usually blunt and rude and I don't agree...

For the first time probably ever i actually agree with you. Lol I don't agree with sentencing the cat to a death sentence its not the cats fault he didn't realize he was ruining the car!
