    Slant 6 engine ignition timing stays retarded.

    What is preventing you from rotating the dist? You should have enough clearance to rotate it 15 deg in either direction

    Too Hot

    Heat transfer happens is at the junction of the tubes to the fins, if it is not connected/soldered no heat is transfered except for the minimal amount from the tube itself to the air.

    Slant 6 engine ignition timing stays retarded.

    5 deg Atdc is retarded, you want to have it 0 to 5 to 10 Btdc so it's advanced. If you are trying to set it per factory spec (67 dart 273 with CAP calls for 5 Atdc) it will probably run like a turd. 0 = 5 advanced over factory 5 = 10 advanced over factory I typically run 0 to 5 advanced as...

    Squeeling V belt and CVF alternator

    I had mentioned that. My recollection is the stock belt is narrower than the replacement belts. I just looked at 2 belts one was 0.44" and the other was 0.41"

    Squeeling V belt and CVF alternator

    Belt is correct side out. Some manufacturers do that to make it easier to turn around smaller pulleys. I have had a few over the years. I have also had the belts as you describe with segments on the inside. My understanding is it helps let trapped air out so it does not squeeze out making a squeak.

    360 Questions.. pardon my ignorance.

    Are you talking the green capped valve?

    360 Questions.. pardon my ignorance.

    Idle is too high at 1000 rpm so throttle is open too much and providing vac to the ported port

    Painting engine in engine bay?

    If you can find a local with laser cleaning equipment. It looks like it does an amazing job of cleaning paint/grease/etc

    360 Questions.. pardon my ignorance.

    Setting timing at 1000 RPM might have some mechanical advance in play. I would back it down to 600 to 700 rpm

    Anticipation of Balancer purchase question

    The mark is not in the same place 70 up and 69 down on the balancer. Some say it is but I have a 70 up timing cover and a 67 273 balancer with bolt on pass side marker. No matter which cylinder I use the timing is not the same on both markers. It's about 10 to 15 deg different. That being...

    [FOR SALE] Center Line’s 15x7 Small Bolt Pattern 5x4" Autodrag

    Do they have the bead lock? Can't tell from your photos. Back in the day they were off highway only. Then they added the bead lock - a raised bead around the rim behind where the tire bead sits both front and back.

    Too Hot

    Just a thought.... I did not see that you mentioned the year and rad configuration. If the in and out are on the drivers side pre 70 style, there is / should be a baffle in the top tank to divert flow to the pass side. Maybe? When they did the repair they did not put it back in. As for top...

    67 commando 273 issue

    Yes, I was just pointing out that everyone says you have to run the insulator even on a 2 BBL. But you do not.

    1968 Dodge Dart Driveshaft

    Also check the yoke alignment if they are not correct it can cause a vibration

    1968 Dodge Dart Driveshaft

    Could also be a misprint. There are others that show up. Like in 68 or 69 FSM the VIN letter for a specific engine is not correct.

    7 1/4" to 8 3/4" rear end swap advice

    When I had my replacement driveshaft cut down I measured with the slip yoke pulled out the same distance as when the 7 1/4 was in. And I got a dimension about 3/4" shorter than the parts book called for. So when i specified a length I split the difference between parts book and my measurements...

    Steering shaft diameter

    I was wrong about the column length? Floor shift or column shift are the same length column tube This is manual with column shift This is power with floor shift Both are measured from under the floor bracket in its as removed position. Coupler pulled all the way out.

    Key issues with my newly acquired 69 Barracuda

    By any chance did you put the key in upside down? It can happen with worn out keyways. Get some spray lube into the cylinder. If the pins got stuck the key will not come out and might not allow for the key to be turned.

    Steering shaft diameter

    Go to mymopar.com and get your cars Factory service manual. There are specifications for where things should be mounted I have not done the swap yet, AND the column shift vs floor shift columns are a different length. The steering shaft would be the same, but the distance from the end of the...

    1968 Dodge Dart Driveshaft

    That may or may not be correct. Did you look in the 68 parts book? If the parts book says so, it is probably going to be correct, BUT.... Measure twice cut once
