I don't post very often, but thought some of you folks might find my story interesting. About 6 years or more ago I finished installing a 60 over warmed up 318 in my 66 dart vert. I had the core redone at a very competent local shop using a high efficiency 2 row core in the original radiator...

Anyone know what the stock combustion chamber cc's are for the so called #302 casting heart chamber heads ?

Attended the 2010 event just this weekend. I was looking around for something on 2011, I cant find any dates. Are the nats dead next year ??

I just had the top replaced on my 66 vert, and the side tension cables were missing. I started looking around on the web and cant find any. Any clues where I can find a set ?

Anyone ever done one before ? I am considering it - either that or a leather wheel wrap. School me on the options !

I installed a bouchillon kickdown in my 66 when i changed it from 2 bbl to 4bbl. I had some issues fitting it to the trans, (the clearance on my car is really tight around the trans) and I am not confident about it working correctly over the long haul. The cable is routing is bad and the end...

What would be the correct pan number for a 73 dart sport 340 ? The one I have is a #228, does that sound right ?

I posted on moparts about the problems Im having with my 66, if anyone happened to read it. The engine is a freshly overhauled 060 318, 9:1 compression ratio, mp 268/272 .455 cam, shortie headers, running a 600 cfm carb., 302 heads pocket ported with 1.88/1.60 valves. It has maybe 4-5 hours...

This isnt an A body but it is a mope. 82 dippy. We decided to put DOT 5 in my son's car on which we rebuilt the whole system. We replaced calipers, hoses, wheel cylinders, and master cylinder. We blew the lines out and then installed the bench bled master and allowed it to gravity bleed for...

I misplaced my installation instructions for my flaming river steering coupler. I have it fitted and installed on the column. What I am seeking is the tightening reference for the two locking bolts that go thru the coupler and lock it on to the steering box input shaft. Any help out there...

Anyone know what the float settings are for one of these carbs ? Edelbrock says their afbs are supposed to be 7/16", my carter carbs book doesnt specify the 9636, but says the 9000 series is supposed to be 9/32". Thats alot of difference. My old mopar service manuals talk about 5/16". I dont...

Small block v8 engine - Okay - I am able to set my timing at 35 degrees total but the distributor's vacuum adv is touching against the coil, with no more timing adjustment available. I want to move the distributor gear one or two teeth so that I move the distributors body clockwise away from...

For those of you who responded or read my posts earlier when I was trying to start my 66, you may recall I posted that I had it running. Well - two days later it was back to no start. I rechecked everything twice, coil voltages, continuity tests, wiring, ballast, ignition boxes (ecu), dist...

Well, I am trying to start the 66. Finally. It wont start due to a very weak spark at the plugs. I am talking pitifully weak. :???: So, a friend has one of the ancient mopar service department electronic ignition system testers - we plugged it in. Its telling me the following after...

I ordered a positive battery cable from Atlas obsolete auto parts out of CA for the 66 V8 dart application. After receiving it - I compared it to two old cables I know to be genuine 66 dart originals, it was not remotely the same. I compared the atlas to a repro 66 B body cable and the atlas...

Finally getting closer to firing up the 66 - Long road Ive been on getting to this point. Been debating about whether to use a flex fan or a clutch fan on the 66. Motor is a warmed over 318 (now 328) about 300-350 hp. Radiator is being recored to a higher efficiency unit, and I have the stock...

Anybody know if 111" A body frame connectors will work on a 66 dart ? I see Mancini has them and they mention that these fit 66-76 111" wheelbase cars. Has anyone installed these on a 66 ? Any comments about pitfalls to avoid or suggestions about the install ?

I took a look at the www.duncan-motor-sports.com website and they sell a plate that replaces the stock gate on the old non ratcheting shifters, converting it to a ratchet shifter. Looks like its a snap to install. Anyone have experience with one of these ? Comments ? I have a ratchet shifter...

When I was growing up, and the holidays came we celebrated with just the immediate family, Mom, Dad, my Brother, and maybe a few close friends would visit. Since we have been married (18yrs now), every xmas is a fiasco dealing with the inlaws. I'd rather not. Does that make me a bad guy, or a...

Passing on a tip - I just finished screwing around with the install of an 8 3/4 into a 66 dart. The axle I installed was originally from a '70 or '71 dart. I figured the brake hose would be the same as the original application using the 7 1/4 axle. Guess again...I found the oe hose was...

I have not got my car running yet so I dont know if my car does this. But I was looking at a parts vendors web site (located in washington state wink wink nudge nudge) and they talk about some modification to the 63-66 A body gas filler tube that solves a gas leakage problem. Apparently the...

After posting a few weeks ago, on freshening up a stored trans.... I decided to rebuild the 904 (73/318 dart original app) for my 66 dart. Years ago I had rebuilt a 727 using a B&M transkit, with what I thought was a pretty good result. Is the B&M transkit still a good choice or is there...

Hi All: I posted on the early A body portion of the site about this topic, and got a few replies. Figured this might be the better forum. Here goes: I am familiar with the later small block by pass hose sizes and the nipple size on the pump and the intake - basically the same as 3/4" steel...

Looking at the by pass hose set up on a 66 273, versus the later model small blocks. It looks to me like the bypass hose needs to have a smaller ID on the water pump side vs the inlet to the manifold, and this is not a small difference, the cast iron pump has a thread that will end up being...

Hi tranny experts out there. Several questions: 1) I will be installing my 318 and 904 trans in my 66 dart sometime this spring. The trans was rebuilt using stock pieces, and rebuilt stock converter about 9 years ago, it was run in a car for a short while.. less than 500 miles, then yanked...

Hi All: I joined about a month ago, made a few posts. I like the site, nicely organized. I really like the post on the Laysons shorty header install. I plan on using these on my 66. Have two darts a 66 and a 73 sport. I post infrequently, but usually look once every couple of days...Been on...
