I guess the sorry taste that I have for Center Force comes from what I was told by their tech staff and the experience that I have in my business. Centerforce tech line told me NOT to pull a trailer until after the 500 mile break in period. If I did pull a trailer and slipped the clutch the...

We have a 73 Challenger sitting in our backyard with an 8 3/4 rearend under it. What would it take to put that under our 68 Dart??? Instead of buying another rearend we would rather use this one if possible even it we need to narrow it. We had thought about narrowing a rearend anyway to get...

Straight 30 weight and straight water for the coolant. Local engine builder told me to use water for the first couple of hundred miles or so. This way the seals have a chance to set good. He said that the anti freeze will sometimes seep thru the gaskets... Just a thought! Rick

For the last couple of days I have been looking around Ebay @ 68 Darts. The cars that I have found are sporting the 340 motors. In the build on my son's 68 Dart I do have access to that 318 out of the Challenger but its not what "Dad" wants for a power plant. I know it sounds stupid that I would...
