    Best cam for the street both power & sound

    My Uncle had a 70 or 71 slant 6 Duster in like 79 or 80. Never thought they'd be collectible like today...I was telling an old timer " in the 80s we thought the cars would be around forever and that they would always be cheap..."

    Turn Signals - Driving me nuts!

    If the bulbs are new and are known good, sometimes the sockets need cleaned or replaced the connections get corroded etc. you could do a wiggle test turn on the left side for example and gently wiggle the bulb see if it starts flashing etc. other than that basic test get a test light and probe...

    LOL! I sold my 318 with a 6901 to an older guy who has a 49 Plymouth. He's running the stock intake and BBD with that cam...he's happy so far...but concerned with gas mileage i told him "you'll be ok with that BBD..." but yes they are the street cam or classic cam i think the series is...

    I agree. I ran that 6901 in a stock teen with stock heads etc and 600 Holley it was fun to a point it didn't rev much or should I say the power band was reached pretty quick. I have read that, the best cam for a stock 318 is the stock cam...and I d bet its true. But its like .399 lift or...

    I think I responded with "Summit K 6901" however I was waiting for a argument and contradiction...that Summit cam supposedly comes in close to the stock 69-later 340 cam from what I hear...is the the best? its a matter of opinion I think "Best "has to be defined. Alot of old timers tell me the...

    Turn Signals - Driving me nuts!

    Well, check it out if there is one bulb it may be a 1157 as there are two elements a 1156 has one element so if 1156 were the correct bulb, Id think you'd have 1 bulb for tail lights and 1 bulb for brake/turn. if it is one bulb try 1157 as the bulb has the tail light element and a brake/turn...

    Best cam for the street both power & sound

    A fun thing to do if you can find good info is, look up MPG of say a 1970 318 Swinger then compare it to a Swinger 340. Could even look up a 69 318 Satellite and compare it to a 383 Roadrunner etc. Rumour is The Dart Swinger 340 in 1970 got 13 or 14 MPG as a new car ...unacceptable wouldn't...

    Not hated just not worth dumping $$$ into to make power. A 318, to me is something I'd run while I was rebuilding my 340 and that is because it is a direct bolt in, same flywheel can be used etc. no balance issues...

    No lie back in the day (late 70s early 80s) it was fairly common for women to know how to keep their own car running.
