Hey guys this pertains to my 72 Scamp. 84,*** original miles. Internally untouched since new. Car spends most of its time sitting in the garage. Suddenly it has developed a dead miss on cylinders 5 and 7. Plugs are wet and plugs are good. Have swapped in a second set of plugs, wires, cap...

Looking to put a newer 360 stock magnum into my old 77 w200. Im looking for a carb'ed magnum intake and a 1406 edelbrock that is still box stock and runable. Thanks

Im replacing the entire fuel system in the 70 dart by necessity..... my question is that I see that I can get a 5/16" or a 3/8" pickup in the tank. I can also order the lines in 5/16" or 3/8". Currently the car will be a mildly warmed 318 with plans of one day running a big block or a 408...

Ok so since I dropped the heads off at the machine shop and the valves were basically welded to the heads from varnished gas... the older guy at the shop said you need to replace the entire fuel system... I figured I would listen SO I dropped the tank and sure enough the inside of it is...

I have a 318 magnum short block from a 99 truck. The block has 4 broken rods and a toasted crank. The cylinders look good, no visible wear (89,000 miles). One of the broken rods did take a chunk out of the very bottom of one of the cylinder walls about the size of a nickel. Its of no use...

Looking for the (small block) 268 comp xe cam and lifters... I would really prefer it to be new.. I am going to purchase from summit, but just figured I would check to see if any fellow FABO members might have bought one they didnt use. Thanks

Ok so with the 318 dilemma .. I've gotten to thinking about putting this 360 magnum I have out of a 95 ram into the dart. What will I need? Will all the accessories and serpentine belt system fit in the car just the way it is on the front of the truck engine? I would be nice to use the more...

So after my bent pushrod, bent valve experience- the machine shop says that the old gas had caused the valves to stick.. bad enough that the pushrods folded when the piston hit the valves... Long story short the mahcine shop (napa) says 350-500 to redo the valves, seals, and that if I want to...

So.... My 70 dart has 63000 original miles been sitting for a presumed 5-6 years previous owner says "yea it runs great, its just been sitting" so after 2 nights of frustration and checking.... still it wont run... OK- something is definately wrong I checked everything and Im not this...

Ok... so theres a guy local that has amassed 1000's of cars on his property since the 70's... and nobody except a few people know they're back there.... largely they are junk.. he has stacked them over the years and pushed them around with the loader, etc... However there are quite a few...

70 swinger has the thin body side molding that runs down the middle of the car from front to back... now on the 73+ cars I've had, this was just plastic and it was glued on.... so I always just yanked them off. This one is actually metal with a rubber strip and it has the clips and pegs on...

Not mine, but found this an thought maybe someone was interested.... http://richmond.craigslist.org/cto/1615055330.html

I know this this is considered by some a no no, and those that do accept it say its a machine shop only procedure. Besides centering the pattern on the flange.... this could reasonably be done at home by a COMPETENT builder/fabricator. Anyone here done their own?

Hey guys, Im trying to get the car started and its been sitting. I splashed a little gas in the carb, threw in a fresh battery and hit the key to see if it would at least run or fire for a couple secs on the gas. No GO! It seems to me like the started is not turning the engine over fast...

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-850003/?rtype=10 thoughts and opinions?? Its a good bit cheaper than the MP kit, but looks to have the same components... Also what is the difference in the control modules... orange, blue, chrome, etc? Just the outside color or are they actually...

In layman's terms can someone explain to me the difference between the comp cams extreme energy 262 vs the 268? In terms of power band, idle, performance, etc.... (I have been recommended both by experts, but cant decide) Subject in question is 70 318 that will have a performer intake, 600...

The same truck that my future donor 360 is in also happens to be 2wd.... so I have a good small block 46RH.... now I know the RH is hydraulically controlled while the later later 46RE's were electronic... Now I do know that the 46rh has some electrical inputs and does utilize some sort of...

So I've been looking at all you guys rides..... and I've just always loved the look of the cragar ss - especially on an a-boy. It just screams old school street machine. I know the wheel wells on an a-body arent exactly massive, but I want to know what can I fit back there? I dont want to do...
