    72 Duster build - Pro touring slant six

    There's something nice about having a simple cruiser. It definitely could use a little more power but its fun to putt around in. I do have a 440 that I'm building that will eventually go in it. But I'm still collecting parts so that will be way further down the line. It is surprising how many...

    Dan the Man cars ?

    he's effectively hamstrung himself with the extremely limited criteria he feels acceptable. clean and rust free 70~72 dart, 70~74 duster, 70~73 scamp must have V8, AT, PS & AC (might as well put PB in there too) budget is 22K which should be doable. but he refuses to expand his search beyond...

    Slant vs v8 z bar

    My 72 Duster was a slant six with three speed. I converted it to a 360 and 4 speed. The V8 is wider so I cut something like 3/4” off the hollow tube of the torque shaft to fit.

    The k-frame is the same between slant 6 and V8 cars 64-66....but the center link is different on V8 cars and drops down. Some have claimed to have a drop center link on slant 6 cars too or vise versa, but the V8 has a drop center link unique to the 64-66 cars. The engine mounts from a V8 will...

    How do you straighten a k-frame off the car? Is it worth it?

    Thanks. It would need to be a '73 or later V8 k-frame to be useful to me. I do have a k-frame I modified years ago that I could use for sections if need be. Won't work in this project but might be worth the metal.

    Mine would have to have a V8. The slant has gone the way of the dinosaur. Nice rims and tires. Kim

    To Turbo or Supercharge

    doesnt get much more different then this all kidding aside, i think a turbo would be the easiest to get her there...but imagine the looks you will get with that scoop popping out the hood in the odd place

    starter fitment question

    A slant and LA/Magnum/BB starter are interchangeable. Longer ones were the high torque. The late model MagnumV6/V8 starters were the ones to stick in early mopars, smaller and more power. I didn't realize they were the same as a 5.7 but an A engine trans will bolt up to a 5.7 and the starter...

    Shopping list

    Don't waste your time doing anything with that slant 6 other than taking it out and throwing it in the dumpster. The G3 will certainly cost more, but you won't be disappointed with a V8 over the /6. You will be disappointed that the /6 will still be turd after you spend all that money on it.

    And So It Begins....

    my wife & daughter get such a kick out of how many people have to stop & ask about our little 6. usually end up with one of 3 questions. how much horsepower? how quick in the 1/4? or how's the gas mileage? LOL We have more fun with this little car, than I ever did with the Big Block in the...

    [WANTED] V8 throttle pedal for my A body

    Through 66, slant sixes had a rod, not a cable. If the OP is working on a 65 Barracuda, he will need the V8 accelerator pedal, V8 throttle cable firewall bracket, and an A body V8 cable, preferably a four barrel cable. Repop 340 cable will work just fine. Edit, if you don't care about...

    How do I connect this gas pedal?

    I know some early-a slant six cars with AC came with a V8 throttle pedal and bracket assembly like the one pictured, but your pictures it’s hard to see the part that bolts to the firewall, doesn’t look right to me. Has the bracket been modified it is it a newer pedal assembly? Your pedal is...

    65 Barracuda daily driver

    Thanks, once in a while I keep looking at the title of this thread and this car hasn't been a daily driver in well over a year. I bought another car to get around that also needs some attention here and there. First I was struggling to get the exhaust installed and then the freshly rebuilt...

    Need some opinions

    Future profit is no concern to the project. I am aware of the desirability of the car. Fun cruiser is probably where I'm at. Have always wanted an older rwd 2dr v8 muscle car, and the Dart fits what I've wanted closer than my 56 Packard Clipper with a blown tranny. I think my biggest hurdle is...

    A BETTER PICTURE OF MY AVATAR CAR

    Here's where the bug got me........ My first car at 15 was a 1971 Gold Charger. I was too young to get my licence, so my dad plated and insured it as the family car until I was old enough. We put in a set of buckets, and retrofitted it with a Cordoba console and I managed to drive it for...
