Hi there. Could someone give me a rough value on a 69 cuda notchback fully restored with slant 6. In excellent cond. Its garage kept and mint. Looking to give owner a fair price lots of info on v8 comparables but what about a slant 6? Thanks, al

Hurricane Hilary sounded much worse than it currently is, but I felt better with the car in the garage. It's actually the first time it's in the garage since the V8 swap because there was just too much stuff in there. I took apart the engine stand to store it. I took the boom off the hoist and...

Race Engine . . Hmmmm... Performance Engine thinking yes. Here are some more clues to the puzzle as @Swinger 340 has stated about it having the early Edelbrock Performer 4 barrel intake manifold with the thermostat mount bolts parallel to the bypass hose (mopar thermostat thermostat housing...

Out with the old In with the new It's in! Hit a few snags including having the motor mounts on the wrong sides and some other idiotic things, but the hardest part is done. Spent about 12 hours on Friday disconnecting everything from drive shaft to fuel lines etc and then 12 hours...

1 throttle return spring brkt (front of manifold) 2 throttle cable holder ? 3 kick down linkage upper pivot, missing brkt it goes on. 4 rear mount kick down upper pivot / throttle cable holder ( might be mount for #3) 5 choke thermal pull down (slant 6???) 6 another throttle return spring...

65 dart gt with a slant 6 auto on floor. Looking to swap in a v8. I found these two locally. First one says it’s a 318 out of a 70 charger with a 4 speed automatic trans. Engine and trans ran and shifted well when pulled. Comes with carburetor. What 4 speed trans does it look like and what would...

But in that pic, there's no room for a ring to fit into the groove. Who told you .028? I'm thinking your direct clutch is fried. The pic and your explanation make no sense. Have you looked at pics of other assembled direct drums? That looks like a slant six drum that you tried to put an extra...

Slant six is offset to driver side. V8 is offset to the passenger side. Look at fan shrouds & it is easy to see.

Huge thank you. And I am sure you are right with the search being thrown off by the spec sheets. Must be the case with this car as it has the front discs, but the slant-6 225. I am going to order the 2947R's as a just in case.

That's an 8.25" rear as stated above. Putting the larger tires on was the equivalent of putting a 2.99:1 gearset in it, and the OD top gear is the combined equivalent of adding 2.18:1 cogs out back, good grief what do you expect from that poor Slanty!! I'd toss the 3.73's in it, the new...

Hello. We have recently purchased a 1973 Dart Swinger. It is a Slant Six car with small 7 1/4" rear end. I am doing a V8 swap and need a larger rear end. Sure Grip is preferred but not required. Just needing whatever I can find at this point. Willing to travel within reasonable distance...

I'm using a 904 transmission for a v8

I realize it’ll put the motor pretty close to the stock location of a v8 k member. So just treat it like it’s a v8 k member after the mounts are installed?

This thread - I read as much as I could stand - is full of the usual bad ideas. In those pics, I don't see any sign the valves were hitting the pistons. Maybe they were, but it doesn't look like it. And of course, even if they were it would have nothing to do with overheating. Do people...

Hi Guys 1 of the 2 valiants that i bough as a slant 6 k member....i heard that Schumacher doesnt do the supports anymore is there a way that i can modify the engine mounts by myself to bolt a big block or small block v8 to the same k member while keeping the slant 6 torsion bars ? I always had...

Mopar slant six hydraulic lifters oil down through the pushrods. They are .903 diameter like a v8 hydraulic lifter. The hydraulic slant rockers are made with internal passages to take pressurized oil from the rocker shaft and direct it to the lifters. Although I cannot imagine the advantage of a...

So hermiston Oregon isn't what I would call flatlands lol there's lots of hills in Oregon to get anywhere or any surrounding areas around it. You're talking a little horsepower while running AC power steering and the likes... Unless you're hell-bent on a slant six doing all this and willing to...

My slant six is a slightly modified one out of a 63 Plymouth Belvedere it makes good power for a slant. I've recently put a 2 barrel on it and completely opened the exaust up. It makes power but it's either I could dump money into different gears in the back i currently have 2.23, or I could get...

You will likely have to lengthen the distributor and alternator parts of the harness and possibly the ac wire or wires as well as the slant 6 is a bit longer than the V8.

OK, here goes... Keep in mind, I don't own any pre-1970 big blocks, nor do I own any trucks, so I do not have any V8 clutch parts that do not fit a 10.5"/10.95", 130-tooth flywheel, nor do I own any other type of V8 flywheel*. I did not dig out the Keisler flywheel because it was in a...

i had to block quote you down because you covered so much ground here. but let me start off by saying that some of what you're saying is counter intuitive to what you're thinking or what end goals you're trying to achieve. the stock slant six bars were the tiniest bars offered on factory show...

Hi Faboers I am in progress of upgrading my slant 6 in my barracuda to a 340 and I need a new gas pedal and cable. Let me know if you have a spare one for sale. Thanks Ed

Purchased my Early A just over a year ago. 1. Had an emotional attachment going back to my High School days 2. Price-point A slant 6 Early A is generally far more affordable than a larger vehicle or something BB or SB V8 3. Early A's are a seen as being a bit "quirky" or outside of the...

Despite being a few model years apart, outr cars seem to have been optioned identically (aside from the California emissions stuff). IIRC, unless something changed between '70 and '73, yours will still coded with an "L"/"low price class" VIN. I think your "medium" descriptor does make sense...

There was a series on the PowerNation shows where Newcomer Racing built a 600+ HP stroked and turbo (or maybe centrifugal-blown?) Jeep 4.0L. Lots of trick stuff but just goes to show what you can do with that platform. Slant 6..... ehhh idk that tiny bore is a power killer and the ports need...

So that SA 60 kit came out around 1961 at point in time the Valiant and Lancer were only offered with the slant 6 . Besides Motor Trend was stuffing a Y block v8 into the Falcon at that time . And it took a bunch of mods to get it in that small engine compartment. So hot rodding being what it...

If I'm not mistaken, you'll have to swap the slant 6 pressure hose for a V8 one, I believe they are different. What pump do you have?

Going from a slant 6 to a small block, I just rewrap the harness to put the connectors in the correct area. The coil and oil sender wires are actually longer on a slant 6 harness than a V8. The rest of them are about the same. Same connectors and color code too.

I don't have a pic of the fender tag for my '70 Duster handy but years ago I did go through the build sheet. 318 V8 904 auto trans A/C Power steering Front disc brakes AM Radio (if that's not standard?) CA-mandated ECS emissions junk (Cali car) That's about it. Manual brakes, no console...

I picked up this, after selling my 66 Satellite, to a guy that drove from Texas to Tampa to get it.....4 k , 12 year old paint. But I did have a built 340, 727 and 4:10 Richmond gear set I kept and put I this. I definitely have some money and time in it, 98% rust free. My Mopar Brother Big...
