    A Body 8.25 with discs - WIW?

    I would say no less than 350-300 based on condition. I was lucky, some guy gave mine to me for free about two weeks before I broke my 7 1/4 haha. It had 11in drums too.

    Want to lower my 66 Dart

    I'd say is all about how much money your willing to spend. You can go the drop spindle route but you will have to purchase them from here http://www.magnumforce.com/store/results.asp?CategoryID=84 or here http://www.performanceonline.com/1962-74-Mopar-A-B-and-E-Body-Drop-Spindles-Set-DS6274/ but...

    Very carefully haha. Been looking for one of these trucks for a long time.

    Got me a new truck with a slant Six, what should I do?

    According to the sticker under the hood, it does have the overdrive trans.

    Got me a new truck with a slant Six, what should I do?

    Thanks! I think I'm going to put the new intake and carb idea on hold for now. Got to get my Dart project rolling. It seems to have an over charging issue right now, had the alternator rebuilt (who does that anymore?), replaced the voltage regulator, and got a new battery. Hope that fixes the...

    finding a 8 1/4 sure grip

    My 8 1/4 came from a 74 Dart and had a 2:45 gear and I had no problem installing a new suregrip with 3:55 gear in it.

    [SOLD] Manual Steering Box

    From what I experienced changing the steering gear box on my Dart, they changed the spline count on 73 and up A-bodies.

    A 440 A-Body... that can handle?

    What kind of mileage have you guys seen? I can't see it being any worse than my 87 RAM with a 2 barrel 318 (about 10).

    A 440 A-Body... that can handle?

    Did a quick search and found this article you did on BigBlockDart.com: http://www.bigblockdart.com/techpages/dck.shtml Looks fairly easy and would save $$ instead of using a conversion kit. The only thing I would do in addition is add a little more beef to bottom of the brackets.

    Leaky manifold bolt

    I belive it does if I'm not mistaken.

    A 440 A-Body... that can handle?

    Almost sold on this. Have you guys ever used the schumacher motor mount kit with the headers? Pro/ cons? What kind of k-member mods are recommended if going from a six to a 440?

    finding a 8 1/4 sure grip

    You can find them in 96 and older Dodge trucks with the 8 1/4 dif (RAM and Dakotas). Just make sure they are 27 spline. Have you checked out Randy's Ring and Pinion? Got a suregrip, 3.55 gear, and a rebuild kit from them a few years back and loved how my diff turned out. Check out this link...

    A 440 A-Body... that can handle?

    Subscribed, I have the option to put a 440 with an 18 spline four speed in my Dart. The only thing that was stopping me was threat of poor handling.

    Coolest A body you worked on

    My dad's 64 Valiant. It had a slant six, 4 barrel carb/ intake, headers, a four speed and an 8 3/4. I would purposely lock up all four wheels on wet roads to do power slides and fish tail it. On night I even broke the the rotor button because I was reving it so high, it still drove home tho...

    Wow that is a sweet ride, not a bad price either.

    can u order fender tags?

    Point taken, if you were to sell the car it would not be appropriate to sell it with a fake tag. The reason why I inquired about this is to document what options I know my car has. I like Colomopar's idea of putting a visible "Clone" on the tag tho so as to not deceive someone. Purely from a...

    Rare 4-speed

    Well thats unfortunate, but sounds like some great finds. Good luck with the rebuild.

    can u order fender tags?

    How is it fraud if your not changing the VIN? If you put it that way, it would be fraud to add anything to a car that is not an original part.

    can u order fender tags?

    Suppose you don't have one, is there a place that still makes them. I was thinking the same thing as my 72 dart was just a basket case, missing the fender tag and build sheet, when I got it.

    Got me a new truck with a slant Six, what should I do?

    It would be nice if I could get a super six intake for it but at the current prices I have seen it would be better to just get a clifford four barrel intake and call it a day. But If I do end up finding a 2 barrel intake for it, what carb do you guys recommend? I'm going to try and get more pics...

    Got me a new truck with a slant Six, what should I do?

    I belive there was, my dad's cousin had a 70's four door, four wheel drive powered by a slant six.

    Got me a new truck with a slant Six, what should I do?

    Thats very pretty. Those Aussiespeed parts cost a little more than what I would like to pay for slant six performance parts haha, but well done.

    Got me a new truck with a slant Six, what should I do?

    I got it for less than what the guy was asking. I saw it on craigslist and thought I had to have this truck haha. I love tinkering on things so I just can't leave it be. I'm thinking a comp cam 264S ...

    1966 Disc Brake Conversion Questions

    I'd go the 73-76 disc set up. Did the same swap on my dad's 64 Valiant with no modification at all for less than $500. I could not belive how big of a difference the braking power was between disc and drum in that car.

    '74 Dodge D100 Adventurer - Finn The Truck

    I hear you guys on these trucks, they are so addictive. I have an 87 and now I just bought an 81 with a utline bed.

    Got me a new truck with a slant Six, what should I do?

    Thanks for the likes guys. It does have the electronic ignition in it, just the module is in an odd place on the drivers side. Johnny Dart, I love how clean your engine bay is, its what I'm shooting for with this truck. Yea, sometimes, you can find some nice older vehicles in Florida but the...

    Got me a new truck with a slant Six, what should I do?

    Thanks, well this is my first slant six and I thought I would have some fun with it. I love the oddity factor this truck presents and I want to add to do a little more to the engine without swapping for a v8. Performance is a plus in this case without sacrificing fuel milage. My dads 64 valiant...
