    Thoughts on early vs. late Slants.

    All I plan on doing with mine if I choose to use it is installing a factory Super-Six set-up, complete with the Carter BBD, dizzy, the stock (or aftermarket) electronic ignition, and the 2-1/2” exhaust (or Dutras if I want to shell out for them). I should be fine, and before I would use it, I’d...

    [FOR SALE] 1964 Valiant wagon...project

    Hi, just an FYI in that the Signet trim was not available on the wagon. It’s either going to be a V100 or a V200. This car apears to be a V100, and your VIN would confirm this. There are places online that you can decode the VIN with. Good luck!

    Thoughts on early vs. late Slants.

    Why do you specifically want a cast crank Slant?

    1965 Valiant LS Swap Final Update

    Here’s my two cents on the build, your comment, and my opinions thereof: I myself would never do this to that car if it were mine. I’m a purist and a Slant fan. The thing is—and this is very important—IT’S NOT MY CAR! Just because I wouldn’t do that to my car (’66 Dart 170 2-door that I in...

    Thoughts on early vs. late Slants.

    Yes, the more I process all this, the more I’m thinking the exact same thing. Some day I’ll do something with that engine. I do have a little bit of a Slant fetish, and they’re still cheap to pick up.

    Thoughts on early vs. late Slants.

    The original ’66 engine is mated to a manual trans, whereas the ’81 van engine is mated to an automatic.

    Thoughts on early vs. late Slants.

    Thank you for clarifying that. I have the right bell, the trans, and all the right clutch stuff, so looks like I’ll just need a Z-bar (and the 300 other things I don’t know I need yet).

    Thoughts on early vs. late Slants.

    Hi folks, I plan on putting an A833OD into my ’66 Dart (225, A903, 3:23). The original engine is fine, but I also have a 1981 225 in a parts van I picked up. My research has told me the main differences (crank, head, lifters, etc), but I don’t actually have any experience with the later...

    '65 Dart A833 OD swap - speedometer cable

    I’ll be following this thread, as I have a back-burner project ’66 Dart 170 I plan on doing this to. I suspect I’ll have an easier time with it since the ’66 cars lack the ball-and-trunnion.

    1965 Valiant LS Swap Final Update

    Haters gonna hate, but as I see it, hot rod away on your own ride, my friend. It looks to be well-executed. Enjoy it, along with ruffling all the panties of the said haters! Please post pics of it along with some of the sad faces when you take it to a Mopar show.

    66 Dart Owners thread

    I have a ’66 Dart 170 base 2-door sedan on the back burner. It’s a rust-free NM car, 225, A903 on the tree, and the only options it has are an AM radio and carpeting. It currently sits on a set of 15” Wheel Vintique steelies with fairly low-pro tires, and the original poverty caps. I...

    Overdrive in Early A

    Here’s my two cents: If you are planning on an A833OD—which I myself would recommend over any other trans for ease and for awesomeness, it’s straight-forward. The ‘64-‘66 (and later) A-bodies came with the old iron A833 which are the same size, so the only cutting necessary is for the shifter...

    A833 od 4 speed abuse

    Back from the dead... I have a '79 B100 with a stock teener 2-bbl and an A833OD that is original to the vehicle. Since they made them this way, and since your car is a lot lighter than my van, you should be fine. I have also heard they put this trans behind the 360 2-bbl in F-Bodies when that...

    Another tire fitment question…

    ‘66 Dart 170 2-door post. Replacing my 13” wheels with a set of Wheel Vintique 15x6 (3.75” backspacing) steelies. She’s not really going to be a hot-rod, rather a stock-appearing MPG queen with a Super-Six and A833OD. I’m thinking about 205 75 R15 all the way around for a relatively stock-ish...

    Another “ID my A833” thread

    Thanks for all the help. I went and got this today. Clearly an OD. Everything is free and gears aren’t too bad. I took measurements from two A-body regular 4-speeds (one B&T ‘65 Barracuda and one slip ‘69 Dart). Measurements and mounts are identical.

    Another “ID my A833” thread

    I was told it’s all-aluminum and definitely an OD with the bigger bearing retainer. He’s got other parts for me, so I’ll be able to see it in-person. This fortunately isn’t an item needing to be shipped. The case numbers he gave me appear to be more like serial numbers…66(or GG)182453.

    I apologize for yet another one, but the threads I searched yielded indefinite results. That said, I have a ‘66 Dart 170 2-door I am wanting to put an OD into. Already has a manual. I located one at a junkyard that my research leads me to believe is the right one for my application. I wanted...

    7 1/4 Rebuild on the cheap

    Old thread, but well-done, sir. People like to yank these out and toss them aside, saying they’re weak. I guess it depends on what one’s usage is. I am putting together a ‘66 Dart 170 2-door that I want to be a daily MPG queen. Though this rear end may be light-duty, it’s also light weight...
