I have a '69 Dart that has a few suspicious splices and randomly cut wires that I'd like to ensure get properly sorted out. I have the B&W diagrams from MyMopar, but I was wondering if there were any colored versions floating around here.
Thanks!
Trying to catch up some as I do not frequent this forum much...
How about some datalogs and perhaps a tune file?
I have a 5.7L running on a Gold Box, I can probably look over your settings for a gut-check. I'll echo the other responses, you must have exhaust in order for your o2 to provide any...
I may be interested in that bellhousing alignment plate, if you wanted to sell it?
When I bought, SST told me that my QT bell didn't need to be aligned. Tremec/SST have since changed that position.
Would a '69 Dart have come with a vented fuel tank? I haven't been able to look mine over well, but I do recall a vent tube running along the filler neck inside the trunk.
Would this be the right tank for me?

I have some history in this, I am now 31 with a BS in Mechanical Engineering and an MBA...But I also graduated from UTI.
Out of high school I had very little direction, my parents didn’t go to college and I didn’t understand the limitations behind being a tech. It’s a fine job, but the long...
This popped up for sale locally and I couldn't pass it up for some reason. 318/904 car, air conditioning, power steering and not a lick of rust.
The previous owner daily drove it from 1998-2002, it appears to have sat since then. Gas tank is junk, carb was gunked up and it looks like they had...
I am looking for a pair of front fender trim pieces for a '69 Dart custom - driver quality. In addition, I need a full set of four interior door panels [tan].
You may find that the hydramat clogs up quite quickly in a semi-rusty tank like that. Off-roaders have had troubles with that, even using very large mats.
If it clogs up once, you've shot any chance of "saving money" going this route.
at 65mph I am about at 1,900rpm, 2,300rpm at 80...
If you had 3.55s, 0.69 OD and turned 1,800rpm at 80mph, you would have to have a 36" tall tire...the correct calculation is 2,368rpm using the 27" tall tire you reference earlier.
I have a 0.63 6th, 3.91 and 28.4” rear tires. I have no problems with highway crusing torque. If I started from scratch, 3.7x in the axle would be a hair better for me.
This isn't the best picture, but you can see what's happening. Two 90° ends and a flat plate spanning between them. This kit came from Silver Sport Transmissions, maybe they include it and not Wilwood.
This is a early picture, many things have changed on my car since I took this, but this...
My Wilwood master came with a support that ties to the lower MC bolt to a drilled hole in the forward frame rail. No deflection.
Can get pictures if needed
I don't have anywhere near by the make a decent 3rd gear 100mph pull to get a similar comparison. The numbers for the filter are nearly indisputable, there's no question it's too small.
I ended up flattening out on peak power for a couple of hundred rpm.
Looking at a log I think I've determined my air filter is far too small since I am pulling a vacuum as the revs rise [watch the MAP].
Since then I have bought what K&N sells for their Hemi CAIs and will run that...
I'd have to dig into it for the number, but it's seamless. My clutch input switch is also at the top of the pedal's travel, so spark doesn't reengage until the clutch pedal is fully released.
It cuts fuel and retards spark.
No. ECU cuts power when I touch the clutch above 4,500rpm and 80% throttle. Power is progressively returned, it's actually quite easy on the driveline but the air going through the engine never slows down, so it picks up the next gear quite well.
