    I've used them on my circle track mini-stock and they seal fine.

    I run an ATI Superdamper on my 340 Sport and on my mini-stock racer. I don't use anything else.

    best camshaft brand

    I've run a Comp Cams solid flat tappet in my built 73 Sport for 5 years with no issues. As others have said, proper and timely break-in is critical. No shortcuts. And proper oil from then on. I'm running Amsoil with ZDDP and absolutely no problems.

    1968 Dart Build

    Since I grew up in the 60's, if it was mine I'd go with an original 383. Only because I saw so many in my youth and always loved the look of the Darts, plus that 383 emblem on the fender. I know, a silly reason.

    Pinion angle....with pics

    I level the car with the jacks under the rear axle tubes and on the frame rails up front. I measure the ATI damper for the front reading. Whatever that is, I try to get equal but opposite at the rear, measuring off the rear end yoke. Has always worked on my street Dart 340 Sport and my circle...

    Mufflers like Dynomax

    I have the Summit 2.5 inch with H pipe setup and the Dynomax Super Turbos on my built 340 Sport. I love the sound from the outside. Inside, not so much. Cannot cruise and listen to the radio/CD player due to the noise.

    zinc oil useage?

    Lots of opinions here. I run Amsoil Dominator 10W-50 in my mini-stock flat tappet engine. No issues at all. For my built 340 Dart Sport with a solid cam street car I run the Amsoil 10W-40 Z-Rod with the zinc.

    Advice on Members Restorations postings

    I think of the Restorations page as a place to show what you are working on, not what you've already completed, along with notes on what and how you're doing it. This page is where I learned the basics of adapting a 200-4R trans to my Dart 340 Sport. And that's just a small part of what I've...

    Transmission Cooler

    73 Sport. Built 340, Chevy 200-4R Trans, 3000 stall, 3.91 Sure Grip. Ran mine through the radiator and then the cooler, then back to trans. No issues. I also have the finned aluminum deep trans pan.

    Gear Vendors question

    This is the Wilcap adapter behind my 340. What's crude about it?

    Overdrive transmission

    Actually its 700-R4 and 200-4R.

    Overdrive transmission

    The Wilcap adapter is not an ugly piece at all. The poster must be thinking about another one. Here are two photos of my adapter. The kit comes with everything you need to bolt a 200-4R to the 340. And there is nothing at all to cut from the engine block or the trans. I am totally satisfied.

    Fuel gauge wiring question

    Try Mymopar.com and download a service manual. You'll find a wiring diagram there and you can follow the path from the sender to the gauge. If it's like my 73 Sport 340, there's a connector behind the driver's foot panel where you can find the wire color specified in the manual. Locate that wire...

    Gear Vendors question

    Check out Wilcap adapters. I used one of their adapters to put a 200-4R behind my 340 in my 73 Sport. Fits without cutting the tunnel at all.

    Pinion angle and diff centering

    On my non-Mopar race truck, I use the ATI Super Damper for my engine/trans angle. Then to the rear with the equal but opposite deal. Has always worked for me.

    MUFFLER OPINIONS

    Would love to know how all of these different brands compare with the stock-sounding mufflers offered by some companies, such as Accurate. As an old guy, I still remember how nice the 340's sounded from the factory back in the day. As an aside, I have Dynomax Super Turbos on my built Sport 340...

    Josh's 73 Dart Sport - "Fred"

    A little something to keep you energized and working to your goal. My 1973 Sport 340 before and after my 4 year restoration. Mine was similar to yours - rusted out floor, both quarters and tail panel rusted, one fender replaced, new interior, new suspension. All the work you do will be worth it.

    Stroker 340 harmonic balancer / dampener

    ATI Superdamper on my 73 Sport 340 and my Ford mini stock race engine. The benefit really shows on the mini stock when I do a tear down at the end of the season.

    Suggestions Wanted For 408 Stroker Mufflers

    I know every car is different. I have a 73 Sport with a built 340. I used the Dynamax Super Turbos to replace the Summit Turbos I originally had. The Dynomax sound good at idle, not too loud, and really sing under throttle. But the interior drone is terrible.

    Big Block muffler choice

    I have Dynomax Super Turbos on my built 73 Sport 340. Sound at idle is nice and it sings on throttle, but the interior drone is terrible.

    Alternator Troubles! 1973 Plymouth duster 318

    Just for thought - print the wiring schematics and then get a long piece of cardboard and tape the schematics to it, in order. Makes following the flow of the wires much easier. You can fold it up when not in use. Believe me, you'll use it a lot.

    Detroit locker

    May be relative after you install it - I have a Detroit Locker in my 427 Cobra replica. I've noticed that if the air pressure in the rear tires is unequal side to side by as little as 3 pounds the rear will have a slight jerk to the right with every shift (Toploader 4 speed). Also, get ready for...
