To boost reference the power valve you need to literally disassemble it and reassemble it backwards with the spring moving it on the other side. Its kind of weird sounding and i dont have a pic of what i did, and then you also block off the lower vacuum port in the powervalve cavity. Then i...

So just to show everyone i'm still around and still working on this, the engine is in, i painted the car literally 3 times and still dont like it, but its getting closer to running. Im waiting on someone to ship me a direct drive starter for this weird torque converter. And then had to...

It started out as a single stage, but then i talked to car painter and he said since i was new to it, and that the only paint i had, to take the last coat and mix it 50/50 with clear and then shoot a couple clears over it. It adhered just fine, but he suggested it so that if i mess up i can...

Woah, 2 months, sorry. BUT I have been busy with the car and engine. I'd say I've accomplished quite a bit. I have the engine completely assembled, and the car is in the middle of getting ready. I still have to cut and polish it. As for the engine, it's pretty much ready to drop when I get...

The modules usually have a bunch of wires hanging off that you don't use, the one I had contained three other circuits you could use to do whatever. It matters if the unit that pops the trunk is a 2 lead unit, a positive trigger, or negative trigger, because the unit will usually only do a 2...

I installed those actuators in my Dart. Theres no worry on room, the actuators are maybe 4" long and 1" diameter. They fit in a lot of spots in the doors. I recently got rid of mine and switched to a door popper system to remove the door handles, which those fit fine too, even being 2" in...

Maybe place the turbo up high and modify your engine box to allow it. I debated putting mine up high enough at one point that I could drain it into the valve cover. You could also find a way to put it on the other side and drain into the fuel pump block -off if you're going for an electric fuel...

Sorry for the delayed response. Work has been fairly busy and I don't check on much online. BUT NOW I am ramping back up with the Dart. It's getting painted, new engine I am in the process of assembling, etc. But for your question Dantra, I had seen a manifold cut similarly, but with a...

Here's the currently installed 1968 Slant in my 1968 Dart And here's the new one I'm building out of a 75 Duster. Will also be turbo.

my Turbine car inspired dash setup. The dash face is a brushed aluminum 3m dinoc and it actually feels like brushed aluminum.

Well, the ARP's are not actually 220,000PSI as you said Bill. I don't doubt they'll still do their job though. This morning I got my adapter and hacked manifold back. The original custom header design was scrapped due to time constraints and the person welding them was very hard to keep...

If you still have the 99 Durango, would you be willing to sell the glove box door, and is it Black? ALso, I have a 99 so could tell you whatever the bolt holes are but I don't know to what you're referring to.

Yeah I bought them off Summit and it said 220k but now i see there's a possiblity that's wrong. I wonder how to find out...

I just paid $350 for a completely rebuilt 1975 Slant six from a Duster, with a rebuilt torqueflite, both never operated after the rebuild. But the previous owner thought of it simply as trash in the classic truck he bought.

What do you want to know? Weather they accomplish their task or not? I'll be able to tell in time. One thing I am happy about is the head was INCREDIBLY EASY to pop back on the block with them. It will make a nice addition if the head has to come off and on in the car. It's lined up and done...

I believe the turbo I use is a .63 but I don't remember. It's raining out so I can't really go look under the hood. It's going to be the same turbo I had on the other motor since there's nothing wrong with it. The cam I'm hoping may be stock, or close to it since boost works well with the stock...

Engine turns out to be bored .040 over and never fired afterwards, which is worrysome, because I don't know how long ago it was rebuilt. Time to get it onto a full stand so I can attach the transmission and a starter and try and fire it. But first, a couple things, more paint, etc... etc...

Alright, so I stripped the engine of all of it's external bits, and started doing some planning and work. The builder put a 1/16" hole in the thermostat, something I also did on my current slant in the Dart. Also something I didn't notice before is one bolt was broken off in the block on...

Well, today I got the engine off its cradle and onto a new stand, got the transmission off of course, bent the **** out of the tin cover plate... but ya know... I'll fix that or something. So far the only surprise is once the intake was off there was water in the ports. I'm hoping it was...

Thank you. There's a few of us floating around.

Is that the oil pressure sender mounted to the top of the turbo? That's a good idea. I may do that as well.

Didn't hear from him, so I tacked the start of it together myself and started playing around with what bends I have, I may wind up with some more to make everything point more forward, or just redirect when I move to 2 1/2". Only the 90s are tacked on and the holding tube I got to leave both...

Ok, since the "budget build" part of this build is over, there's more parts being bought. For those just tuning in, the first, I dunno - 12 -15 pages are where you'd stop if you're looking to spend less than $1500. Now we're on the - however much it kinda costs to get this done. I started with...

Spectre has these plastic air cleaner spacers and adapters that come in a pack of 3 for I think $10.00 if you head out to a store that sells their stuff. Autozone - Pepboys, etc...

Yup. I had a big wood closet rod dowel, and a jack, jack the car up to fit the dowel above the tire and wheel lip, heat the paint with a heat gun to keep from cracking, and then lower the car a bit, so there's just a bit of pressure between it and the tire on the dowel (or use a baseball bat)...

MY tires mashed into the fender on my "7 inch" wheels as well. I rolled them out about 1/2". No cutting. You can't tell it was done really.

I get upset when I see Mighty Car Mods online youtube show and they go to a store like Autozone, and there is bench there with a machine, and you put in a paint chip, or give a paint code, select how faded you believe it to be... etc... then it mixes it and puts it in a spray can with a little...

I figured this would be a good spot for it - but I have the A body adapter to use the flip top gas cap on my dart, and was wondering if anyone's "dented" the body to recess the cap kind of like how it's supposed to be? or welded in the part from the donor car and shortened the filler neck to...

No worries, A pop up garage is better than none. I built most of my car in a driveway and that was a pain, but it worked out ok. I used to live in WA, up in Bremerton, 30 minutes or so north of you on the peninsula - and I could say when I had a garage there that was the only time I could work...
