    1973 Plymouth Duster LCA needed

    My son was forced off the freeway (driver on a cell phone) and spun out tweaking the Driver Side lower control arm. I had just rebuilt the entire front end from the PS gear box to bearings. Unfortunately he also tagged a tree which pretty much destroyed the rear quarter panel. He needs basic...

    MSD system and stock ECU

    I am installing a new engine/trans in my 73 duster, the previous owner installed a complete MSD 6A system (6A, msd distributor and coil). He left the original Electronic Control Unit (Orange box) but cut the distributor wires. I have searched the forums and it appears the the factory ECU is not...

    ultimate part score

    Bought my first wife her first car; 1971 Plymouth Scamp for 75.00 from the junkyard behind the gas station I worked at. It turned over but wouldn't start; I pulled the D-cap and the rotor was missing, found another mopar in the lot, took the rotor and installed it in the scamp and drove it off...

    UCA mounting bracket damage

    72blunblu, thats exactly what I was going to try to do, (I am still trying to figure out how to get pics to show up in the posting.... agh). I think the repair is going to be easier than the replacement, not going for a stock look - just something safe. I'm trying to get this all done this...

    UCA mounting bracket damage

    ooops, still trying to figure out how to imbed photos. I tried a couple of others, hope they are bigger. Since the metal is torn should the mounts be replaced? Are there replacements available? I want to make sure it is safe, its my teenage daughters project. thanks

    Pulled the Duster in to swap the drivetrain and when I crawled underneath to start unbolting things I noticed that the front mounting brackets for the upper control arm are split where they meet the frame (both drivers and passenger side). Has anyone repaired this kind of damage? What causes...

    318 from a B-body to a Duster question

    I just picked up a fresh 318 w/904 that was in a 1970 Charger, will it bolt into my 73 Duster that has a worn out 318? Oil Pan and pickup? Motor Mounts? Transmission Mount? Output Shaft? Thanks

    360 engine build opinions - first engine build

    My daughter and I are building her first engine; a 360 to install in our basically stock 73 duster (8-1/4 rear end). Our plans are to install it with a Mopar OD automatic Tranny. This will be a daily driver (dependable), with the occasional trip to the strip(performance). We want to build...

    open car door - engine shuts off?

    Strange but true, is this an anti-theft device? I couldn't believe it until it happened to me. I thought that my kids were making it up until I tried to start it. I found a loose wire from the battery to the starter relay, I installed a new wire - soldered connections, correct gauge... and...
