    4spd swap checklist for a 68 Dart GT 318/904

    Yes, I’ve seen many for sale that would be good donors. I just don’t have the room to be able to hide it from the HOA. I already have to shuffle things when I need to work on something. My side yard has my flatbed, the Dart is in the backyard and all 3 garages spaces have my other rides. Things...

    4spd swap checklist for a 68 Dart GT 318/904

    Yes, they are. I can’t seem to find a decent low mileage unit around here and I live in Phx which is a huge metro area. But, I have time so will come across sooner or later. Same goes for the 8.75 and A833 I’m searching for. Should’ve picked this one up in the thread but I hesitated.

    4spd swap checklist for a 68 Dart GT 318/904

    Just curious if you bought the trans out of AZ? The pics look like a complete unit that was for sale out here recently and I didn’t pull the trigger on it soon enough before it was gone. If you decide to sell the Hurst unit I’d be interested. Then I just need to find literally everything else...

    5.9 Mag stock LB or rebuilt SB

    @AJ/FormS I like what you’re saying and I do like the thought of the high CR. Can I do that on 91 octane? 1200ft elevation, not much humidity to speak of and hot as hell. At least right now. Not that it would be driven in the summer too much. Would you start with the rebuilt SB or the 96k mile...

    5.9 Mag stock LB or rebuilt SB

    Keep the opinions coming. I’ve been reading up on many different magnum builds throughout the forums, but I’m specifically looking at what you guys would prefer to start with. To clarify, I will be swapping in a four speed in place of the 3 on the tree and of course a new rear end which I...

    5.9 Mag stock LB or rebuilt SB

    I need you alls opinions. I’m looking for a 5.9 magnum for my 69 Dart build. I’ve found a complete stock LB with supposedly 96k miles on it. I’ve also found a rebuilt .020 over short block with new stock cast pistons, new lifters, cam (not one that I would use), oil pump, etc. fully assembled...

    273 or 318?

    Yep, I’ve got the info I need for now. I can’t get under it right now and I can’t see anything from above, especially on the PS with the exhaust manifold. The engine is siezed and the oil on the dip stick is dry sludge so my hopes of getting this running are low at this point even if I can free...

    273 or 318?

    So I used a scotch pad and revealed the full stamping. It is in fact a 273. The full number is PM273R 28490556. I’ll have to clean the block up at some point to find a date code. I still suspect it’s not a 69 because it’s not red but I saw a low mileage original 69 recently with a 318 that was...

    273 or 318?

    If only my engine looked like that! Lol I did find and R and 2 in front of the 8490556 after further inspection but still no cid stamp. Still no luck with that number either. Between all the old oil and grud, the exhaust manifold, and the frame rail, I can’t see squat. I was hoping the...

    273 or 318?

    I’m trying to determine if I have a 273 or 318. There is too much grud on the block for me to get to the numbers right now but I was able to identify the stamping below the DS head. It’s 8490556. I can’t find anything with this number. Do I need to clean the block and find the casting numbers?

    I figured out the double F8 code, it’s the body and roof color since it has no vinyl top. The D2T is deluxe vinyl bench in saddle tan. The T3 is still unknown to me. Something about the upper door frame? It’s definitely not the original engine because it should be red if it was a 273 so I...

    Hey mbaird, any idea why it has the double F8 on fender tag since the interior is brown?

    Hey all, I just purchased my first A body today. I’m having some trouble decoding the fender tag because my second line has 6 codes and all the decoders only have 5. Here’s a pic of the tag and the car. It’s supposed to be a 273 but the engine is blue and I thought 273’s were red. I think it...
