    I have installed a Borgeson box, and their coupler, on my 1966 Plymouth Belvedere along with a 5.7 Hemi. I have the exact same hissing sound that your video shows. Borgeson sent me a replacement box that also has the same sound. The pump has also been replaced. After coming across your...

    Will GM 200r4 work with factory floor shift location?

    So if I understood correctly you are using a 340 manifold on the driver's side and a magnum truck manifold on the passenger. Would the magnum work on the driver's side or what is the reason for going with the 340 since you are using the mini starter? Also is the passenger side truck manifold...

    Will GM 200r4 work with factory floor shift location?

    To Treblig---I never could have imagined when I ask the original question of "whether the floor linkage could be made to work with a 200r4" that it would turn into such a great thread. Thank you for a lot of us for making this so complete and detailed. I am at this point completely jealous...

    Will GM 200r4 work with factory floor shift location?

    If mine has the gap it is completly closed with what was probably dealer undercoating. Any progress?

    Will GM 200r4 work with factory floor shift location?

    Yes, keep the build as detailed as you have so far. I look forward to the pre-engineering without the 200r4 in the car. It will be interesting when the actual swap takes place.

    Will GM 200r4 work with factory floor shift location?

    The car is a 68 Dart convertible that is intended to be a street cruiser and possibly taken on a Power Tour in the future. For the 200r4 would the cable need to push or pull at the transmission itself?

    Will GM 200r4 work with factory floor shift location?

    Sorry, but my ignorance speaking. Can the interior gear shift be kept and the interior linkage be modified for the correct throw to use a cable setup to hook up to the 200r4? It seems that the length of the bellcrank in the interior could be modified to give the correct throw to the...

    Don't stop with the detail on the install. This is exactly what I am looking for and it looks like you are making great progress.

    Will GM 200r4 work with factory floor shift location?

    Thanks for the reply. I will be looking forward to your progress and pictures. I am in the process of stripping the Dart of everything before media blasting and a re-paint. It currently has a lockup 998 transmission and a 2.76 rear end ratio for Interstate cruising, but I am looking for a...

    Will GM 200r4 work with factory floor shift location?

    I was wondering if anyone had used the 200r4 transmission in an A body that had retained the factory floor shift location and tunnel linkage. I have looked at Mopar to ya's installation and saw that he started with a column mount. My car is a 68 Dart convertible that currently is undergoing an...

    Mopar Crate 360 M1 intake hood clearance

    I would like to know if their is any hood clearance issues from someone who has installed one of the Mopar Magnum Crate 360's with the included Mopar M1 single plane intake. The engine will be installed in a 1968 Dart GTS. Either an Edelbrock or Holley carb will be used. The engine part...

    Identification on used Mopar Crate 360

    Iwent to look at the engine and the owner had paperwork saying it was part number P5007646 which was listed as a 395 HP version of the 360. I will probably buy it, but I am concerned about hood clearance with the M1 manifold. It will go in a 1968 GTS Dart. Edelbrock only lists their Air Gap...

    Identification on used Mopar Crate 360

    Thanks for the input so far. I am still interested if someone knows how to ID the version. Would it have anything stamped on it somewhere?

    Identification on used Mopar Crate 360

    I am going to look at a slightly used Mopar crate 360 with the single plane M1 intake. From looking at their history I see them listed at 380Hp and 390HP. Was their any difference or just a revised rating? The bigger question, is their an ID on the motor to positively identify which version...

    904 Lockup Transmission Adjustment Help needed

    Sorry, didn't mean to mislead. Idle speed is 800 rpm to start with and it drops more than normal when the engine is put into drive or reverse. The car is also trying to pull away more than normal at idle speed. I have verified that the converter is for a lockup transmission but I know they...

    904 Lockup Transmission Adjustment Help needed

    I do have it installed now, and it did make a difference. Not as much as I had hoped, but still much better in my case. The Mopar part # is 04186185 PLT/SPRG, and the label has a printing date of 1985, and an additional code that says 8 89 that might be the actual package date. My car shifted...

    904 Lockup Transmission Adjustment Help needed

    I have someone who supposedly is getting a factory spring for me that will delay lockup until about 55 Mph. If it works out that way I will post part #.

    904 Lockup Transmission Adjustment Help needed

    I also have a very similar setup (340--2.76 ratio--but no shift kit). I also would like a larger spread between 3d and lockup. Mine also is about 3 mph. If rdakota340 could tell the scource of a new spring or part #. Or if anyone can say how much to stretch spring that would be appreciated...

    Different height passenger side engine brackets

    Thanks for the pictures Oldmanmopar. Lets see if we can use yours for the question. Using the 3d picture ,the bracket in the back on the right hand side without the pad attatched, is laying on its flat surface. If I measure the height from the table to the top of the bracket right across the...

    Different height passenger side engine brackets

    Still hoping for a reply from someone. If the initial thread is confusing I will ask in a different way. When the passenger side bracket without rubber is placed flat side down on a table, what is the height to the top of the bracket? Two inches or 1 3\4. Thanks

    Different height passenger side engine brackets

    I am installing a 340 in 1968 Dart and I have 2 passenger side brackets to choose from. When looking at the side profile one of the brackets measures 1 1\2" from the flat base on the outside of the bracket to the center of the hole and about 2" overall height. The other bracket measures 1...

    What is this brass ID plate installed on 340?

    Thanks for the replies. Nope, no oil leaking from behind the brass plate. Hole must not have been to big. I do know that it had been mildly gone through by a machine shop before me. Note the fresh freeze plugs but the plate had paint on it. Also was it common for late model 340's to have an...

    What is this brass ID plate installed on 340?

    I am installing a 1973 340 motor but would like to know what this plate may be located on the right hand side of the block. Other information: It may not be odd, but the block is cast as a 1970 while the ID stamped below the cylinder head indicates a 1973. It is externally balanced.

    1968 318 to 1973 340 water pump interchange

    I ended up swapping just the water pump and left the timing cover alone so that timing marks are still correct with the damper. This did require swapping the alternator brackets also, but then everything else is left alone. I will be putting a 998 style transmission with lockup and lower 1st...

    1968 318 to 1973 340 water pump interchange

    Thanks for the replies. My question would be- what is the sequence of events to build a new timing mark on the 340 balancer? Would I have the 340 engine rotated to TDC on removal of cover and then make a mark after installation of the 318 cover on the damper?

    1968 318 to 1973 340 water pump interchange

    I am swapping out the 1968 318 in my Dart convertable to a 1973 340 engine. My 1st problem is the brackets for the power steering do not work out for the water pump cover on the 73 340. The second thing is the water hose to the radiator is on the passenger side on the 73 340 and the drivers...
