Hood that was on the car when I bought it had the cursive Dodge script on the driver's side at the front, not individual letters. Lock knobs (I assume you mean the inside ones?) are at the back edge of the door. Doors still had the 67 only window cranks on them as well, but I know those are...

Way old thread I realize, but I bought my Frankenstein 67 with a 69 grille already installed. I can't say it's an amazing job and don't know what else they changed, but it's on there. I know the rear quarters were replaced with new sheet metal, but any marker lights anywhere on the car have...

I've been looking at trying to close out more of the openings on the front of my 67 Dart now that it's seeing more commuting service, but I had a question regarding the K frame splash shields. I see there are ones listed for pre and post 73 cars, but I'm unsure where the change is. They...

I just had an agreed value policy with my regular insurance (State Farm). Didn't treat it as a classic car or anything in particular to my knowledge, just a regular car with an agreed upon value. Granted mine isn't anything like a show car, it's a pretty straightforward modern drivetrain swap...

I think one thing that I finally realized that throws me off when reading about PCV systems so much is that they aren't really vacuum devices, they are flow devices. It doesn't matter how big or small of an orifice is present, your engine will pull the same vacuum on the other side of it if the...

Hmmm, I never thought about putting the valve on the can itself. To give some context, when I first did the engine swap I just ran a breather on one of the intake ports and plugged the other. It worked, but it was always messy around the breather. I later decided to put in a DIY catch can (a...

Yeah, I don't have a stock intake anymore. It sounds like Mopar made a kit to work with their carb manifold at one point, which I think I could probably adapt to work with my setup, but I can't find part numbers for it anywhere to even see what was in it or how it went together. Was hoping I...

I know this is a pretty old thread, but hoping someone might still be listening. I suspect I might have an issue with the PCV system I rigged up on my ModMan intake. It has some tiny 1/8" NPT ports for the breather similar to the Mopar manifold, but I had no idea what valve to use. I grabbed...

Wow, thanks for all the great ideas and discussion so far! For a little more background, the cam is an SRT Max Plus from Inertia Motorsports with a slightly different LSA than the catalog. I've only got one dyno chart for it and it wasn't great as I later found the car had a cracked pressure...

My commute might be changing in the near future, so I've been thinking about trying to optimize my 67 Dart to get a little better gas mileage as it might be turning into my main daily commuter. My current setup is a modern 5.7 Hemi with a T56 and 3.55 rear gears, so I've got a fairly low cruise...

Late to the party, but my 67 with an 06 5.7 with a moderately aggressive cam, viper T56, and 3.55 gears seems to get around 20-25 on the highway if my Megasquirt is to be believed. My odometer is semi dead as it's been my eternal project to get my factory gauge running with the speed sensor on...

Generally I've heard people recommend steel for street cars and aluminum for racing. You can drive an aluminum flywheel on the street, but can make taking off and clutch stuff a little trickier since it doesn't have the same inertia.

I ran an 833 behind my 5.7 when I first installed it. I believe I had to trim the input shaft down something like 1/2-5/8", but otherwise it was basically a bolt in setup. I ran it with TTI headers as well, but I think I had to do some modification of my Z bar linkage. I'm not sure I ever had...

The service manual crossed my mind as well, though I tried checking in the manual for my Viper and actually didn't find that much there (they use similar enough sensors at least, so figured it might give me a starting point). I did find a little info in there for the MAP sensor at least, though...

I guess I should have specified the actual 5.7 Hemi sensors for a 2006 vintage engine, not necessarily the old school ones, though maybe they aren't all that different. I tried the tee thing with what I have, but I don't necessarily have a good resolution gauge to use as a reference for what the...

Well, against all odds this seem to be one of the few times things just sort of "worked" for me. I was all ready to do a bunch of logging and testing and whatnot to try to figure things out and I pretty much just plugged everything in and it seems like it was good with the nearly default...

As the title suggests, does anyone have charts for the sensor ranges and matching output voltages for things like the MAP and oil pressure sensors? I can't believe it's this hard to find that info, but I'm not having much luck so far. I was hoping I could pull it off of a datasheet from...

I'm not sure what it is about mine. Granted my car also sits outside all the time, albeit under a cover, but the coating has not held up well for me at all.

I have tried some decel fuel cut in the past, but don't recall whether I'm running it now or not. The MS help tips actually suggest against it on a manual car, though I believe that's mostly just because of the "on/off" feeling you can get when you get back on the throttle being jarring to...

You know, one joke I've always had with my car since the day I bought it was that no matter what I do, it gets 20 mpg, period. I had a 318 with a 4 speed and low 3.something gears (I think, don't recall what was actually in the rear end when I bought it) and it got 20 mpg on the highway...

I was in a similar boat with money at the time when I did my 5.7 swap something like 10+ years ago now. Firstly I was a kid in grad school at the time, so I didn't really have cash to do a full fuel system upgrade to high pressure the way I'd want to do it (in tank pump). Secondly, a lot of the...

Yeah, I started doing a little bit of digging and reading and watching videos yesterday, though there is plenty more to do. I have my WOT timing set reasonably conservative still at only 20 degrees at the very top end and 21 a bit before that. It certainly feels spunky enough, but after...

As the title suggests, anyone out there running a Megasquirt setup with the internal knock module? Finally found someone making a drop in replacement since DIYAutotune has been out of stock on them for the past 2+ years and took the chance on them. Will be a while before they show up, but I've...

I did a little more digging on what I used before as well as putting my cluster back together this morning. The terminals I used before were Deutsch size 12 contacts designed for 0.093" pins. They worked really nicely because they have a small spring inside them, so they slip over fairly...

For what it's worth, at least in pictures the Molex stuff isn't even really remotely "original", but based on the design I think they will work okay. The original ones almost remind me more of the typical barrel type connector you can get at any hardware store (the kind with red/blue/yellow...

Okay, did a little more digging and found some threads that reference Molex 0.093 connectors as well. Looks like I can get a set from Amazon cheap enough to try them at least. Will check out Connector World as well, thanks!

I know this thread is pretty old by now, but that name sounds familiar. I redid my whole interior harness and remember buying some Molex terminals for the steering column connector. I don't think they were an exact copy of what came out, but they were very similar, enough so that they work...

Does anyone happen to know what barrel terminals are used on the instrument cluster connector for A bodies? Several years ago I rebuilt my entire interior harness from scratch using a scrap harness I got from work. I wanted modern wires with good insulation and new terminals on everything to...

Here's a picture of the clutch sensor as it's installed in the car. So far seems to work pretty well, but haven't really put it through much but a handful of drives at this point. The string gets pretty close to the steering column connector, but I think I can always reroute that a bit if I...

So here's what I ended up with so far. I like the routing a lot more on this setup since I don't have the weird angles of the E body proportioning valve I had before sending tubes everywhere. Managed to keep a cleaner setup that follows the fenders a little tighter. Need to get some clips or...
