i daily drive a 80 D150 step bed with /6 od833 and love it! few ask when im V8 swaping it i just shake my head no!! but it would be so easy to do!!

If the second car (273 car) has the better body, I'd build that one. If neither one has a good solid body, I'd find a third one that does and build it instead. Use the other two for parts. If your second car is good, I'd keep it a 273 and sell the rebuilt 225 to help fund the 273 build (assuming...

You've gathered incorrectly. This is why one dipstick and tube does not fit all. For example, try putting a 67-76 A body slant 6 pan on a 66 and back slant 6 A body. Ain't happenin, because the pans are shaped differently. There are subtle shape differences in V8 pans as well, so you have to be...

That's what I would do also. I like the 225 A cars. A real pleasure for cruising around. My favorite of the many I've owned was a 68 4dr, auto ac, ps, pb Dart. That was a great do everything car. It certainly earned my respect. If I had a clean 2dr 225 A car and wanted a v8, it would have to run...

hey all new to the group.doing a swap on our 65 valliant rag top.wonder what I need to change out the throttle linkage. Ted

I'm having a tough time trying to locate a /6 throttle cable for a 1965 B-body. I need the extra length over the v8 cables. Are the A-body cable the same length? Stock v8 cables are 20" on the b-body. Con someone post the length of theirs? Thanks.

Sorry i am in the UK i forgot i think in the USA its called a hood i want one like the car in the photo i am 80 years old i have had many Mopars but could never get used to LHD this car i have found is RHD but it is in very sad condition The first Mopar i got was a 67 Fastback Barracuda i loved...

I actually have had a few that never had issues. I am not easy on parts. I did break a 8.75 behind a slant.

Almost every time someone asks me what I have in my Duster, I answer "just a 318." Normal response to that is "nothing wrong with that, one of the best engines ever made". FWIW, I think you running a Slant 6 is cool.

Hey everyone: Looking for an incomplete set of P2843177 solid lifters (hollow, with the pushrod seat held in by a snap ring). Maybe you broke a set for a Slant Six and have the 4 spares, or maybe just extras laying around. I need these to complete a partial set I have for a V8 application. Thanks!

I was thinking about going that route for round 2 after round one I went too short, but had I done that I still would have been too short. Granted I have +2 leafs and the pinion angle shims shoved the axle back a little too so it was bound to be different, but had not learned that yet. But I...

I can't say I am that familiar with post 69 A bodies. But I do not believe the clutch pedal is adjustable. On the bumper and that's it. @AJ/FormS may know different. Have you considered your brake pedal is too low for whatever reason?

It would be wise to build the 318, if it was a complete running motor but it's a basket case that is missing parts and will likely need some machine work. Since it's likely to be cheaper for him to buy a known OK motor than even assemble what he's got, it just makes sense. The kid is still...

Thx guys ! I means a lot to me :) , its the first factory stock engine that i run....beside a slant 6 , never ran a stock mopar, the 318 2bbl moves the fury surprisingly well , im a sleeper build fanatic and i am always wondering these days how well 318 2bbl can be , i have my 400hp duster for...

Is yours a 225 or a different combination. Is the balancer bolt a common part with V8's?

There is a V8 center link that has a greater drop to it than the slant 6 center link, however, it's not always required depending on the engine mount choices you use. I had a 65 I transplanted a 360 in and used the slant 6 center link. It fit fine. It was close, but never touched. There are no...

The two barrel intake is the only way to upgrade the slant 6 to a two barrel that will really reap any benefits. As mentioned, the bottleneck of the one barrel intake is huge. Also, unless you upgrade the exhaust at the same time, there's really no sense in doing the two barrel. That means...

I think it COULD be in something it was actually DESIGNED to be in, like an early Valiant, for instance. But a long, heavy slant 6 in a Miata? I don't know man. I think it was a bad idea on that one. Didn't he use like some plywood and all in that car in places? It just seemed destined for how...

Yeah that's the title of this thread. "Slant 6 727 transmission". It's not "V8 727 with a slant 6 adapter plate". Here's the one I'm talkin about in Tennessee. I would go get it if I could. Cramisshun

:thumbsup: This is my take. I have a 62 Dart Polara 500 that the previous owner removed an OEM 361/727 and replaced it with a warmed over 273/4sp. I believe that swap lowered its desirability on the market. I bought the car sight unseen. My intentions were to fairly quick drop in a 440+. I was...

I had a customized rebuild done by Biltron, and upped the stall to 3500....

I have a 1972 Plymouth Scamp Slant 6 car that I have decided to sell as space is limited with 5 Mopars between the shop and house garage. Completely 100% rust free with all of the original parts with the car. This car is in amazing shape and you won’t find a better candidate for paint and a V8...

(2 1965 Barracudas, /6 vs 273.) I had the same path you are faced with. I went with the /6, which is still an ongoing project. The engine is ready to be installed and run. Head and block work, cam (Hughes), intake (Offy 4 barrel), headers (Clifford), N2O, etc. If I were to start over...I would...

slant to V8 are bolt in.. not sure what year you are looking for.. 63-66 '63-66 A-Body 273/318 or 340/360 Kit 67-72 '67-72 A-Body Slant 6 to 273/318 or 340/360 73-up '73+ A, B, C, F, M, J-Body Slant 6 to 273/318 or 340/360

Does any of the cam grinders make an RV cam for the slant? My philosophy on head porting on the street for the slant is port match the intakes to the gasket. Don't touch the intake. Allegedly it creates a small amount of anti-reversion/minor ram effect. I read that many years ago in reference...

That won't fit your Mopar master cylinder, 2 bolt vs. four bolt. Won't fit the newer aluminum 2 bolt Mopar master either, wrong bolt spacing. Doctor Diff sells a good one, 7" diameter with the brackets if you order the A body version (will fit the early A even though it's listed for '67-'76)...

I bought it that way Mike. The guy I got it from stuffed a 69 charger 440 and automatic in this car. But he used the 69K frame. It sets the engine back a little too far. So the transmission mount isn't right. I do have a correct 65 Plymouth belvedere k-frame for v8. Will be switching that over...

I sure would like to find a shroud for a 64 slant 6 Valiant. You know any sources?

Sounds like you want a nice driver. But what else do you want? Burn outs, limited traction in first gear? If you have power aspirations beyond that of a modern commuter car, I would go V8(big block IMO). If you want something to tinker with that will run decently enough to keep up with modern...
