Still slow going, I am having the same local inspirations you are referring to. With that said, I have finished up in the trunk just need to pretty it up. I also bought a new K member from Hemi Denny, what a nice piece of work that is. I forgot to order it powder coated, so I had to disassemble...

Thanks 65 Dart, did you etch the metal or is the SPI considered a self etching direct to metal primer.

All, I have read most of the paint primers and one of the underlying messages is to use the same brand primer as the paint. My question is does the same hold true with epoxy, or can I use SPI epoxy primer (or any other brand of expoy primer) and then go to my choice of 2K primer?base/clear...

I just got my new HDK so "Laissez Les Bon Temps Roulez". I will say this to anyone waiting to join the club, If you do not order the K-member powder coated, make sure you have a plan for what you are going to do. I had every intention of having mine powder coated but got so caught up in the...

Has anyone tried Evapo Rust. It's a non harsh chemical rust remover, not a converter. It is non toxic safe on the hands biodegradable and can be safely dumped down a drain. I have not tried it on any of the surface flash I have in the trunk but I did drop a rusty pair of pliers in it. Much...

And they are mostly fiberglass and aluminum.

Darnut, Looks like to me a little more foam, sand paper and paint and you'll be good for another couple of hundred miles. I looked at a car about a year ago where the guy had used Hilti construction foam skim-coat primer and paint on the lower rear quarter panel. When I was looking over the car...

Swifter, I Asked Denny a similar question and he said the R&P will not be any lighter, just tighter. I am going with power on mine and am using the GM Saganaw pump from Speedway motors. Bobby

Here goes a paint question, and yes I have searched the forms but don't see anything that addresses this. Before some one ready this and assumes I am talking about painting the car in sections, I am only talking about doing this with the direct to metal epoxy primer from PPG or House of Kolor...

Rusty, thanks for the education.

I hope this doesn't post twice. I thought I sent a similar post to below earlier but don't see it. Rusty, I’m going to show my ignorance here with regards to carburetors. I’m not questioning your thoughts, I’m trying to understand and learn from your experience. I fully understand what happens...

Rusty, In several of your post I see you referring back to the 3310, what is the application/performance advantage/differences between the 3310 series and the street avenger 770 series, or the square bowl single inlet 750 (0–80459SA ). Just trying to educate myself. Keeping in mind 95+% is...

Thanks for your inputs. I think the idea of a really good deal and thinking that a lot of times we tend to over carb engines, I was hoping 670 would be more than enough. When I go to the Holly Website it shows to be right in the middle of what they recommend for a decent built out engine up to...

I know carbs are like a religion, but, I need some help. Lets start with as much as I know about the engine build. 360 LA, with hypereutectic pistons, Comp Cams Hi-Lift series 275HL hydraulic flat tappet cam. Edelbrock # 60779 Performer RPM heads, Elderbrock # 7176 Performer RPM intake. A727...

Bill, Thanks, for some reason I thought I had put my car details down in the signature line but guess not. I have tried it again, we'll see if it took. 67 Dart 360 ci 727 transmission.

Is there a primer/sticky somewhere on pulley sizes and maybe conversation to serpentine belt's. My current configuration is; single belt driving water pump and alternator. I am getting ready to add rack and pinion power steering (Saginaw pump) and before the build is finished air conditioning. I...

No 20 % is great. The 10% was just a arbitrary number. I must have missed the part where you said it was going to have a low warning sensor. You can stick me in line for a board if you do one, even though it will be awhile before I need one.

Dave, I was half joking in one of the earlier but the older I get themore crutches I need. How much harder to add a low warning indicator at say 10% full. I have become so accustom to them that a lot of the time I don't even notice the gague until the light pops on. Funny, when I was young I...

Cracked, since so many of us are running electric cooling fans, have you thought of adding a couple of optional relays and input wires for such options. Getting every thing to one location would be nice.

Just ordered the Hemi Denny front end, going with a power rack and pinion unit. Might be my age showing, back in the day power wasn't even a consideration, to day not haveing power is not a consideration. My how times change us. Bobby

Dustoff, There is allways more than one way to do something, some better than others, some not. When you ask on a open forum like this, you are going to get the hole gambit of responces. If you want to put all of your fuses out at the source (battery) and use heavy gauge wire and appropriately...

Kit, I have no idea where calling you Gil came from my apologies. Bobby

Gil, Kudos to you for giving folks another option. I know when I get to that stage in my build I will have to do something, just wasn't sure what it was going to be. One of the issues with the existing mechanical IVR and I don't know about the solid state ones is the lack of meter dampening. It...

When I first read the link I thought cool, someone is going to wire all of the high current stuff up through some Triacs (basically a solid state relay just doesn't go click click). Then I continued reading and visions of smoke curls from the dash shook me into reality. Like the poll says don't...

I'll go 273 assuming you can get the right gas, even the pump preimium today may well fall short on the 273's, 10.5 comp ratio. Even the 318's 9.2 is high by today's standard on gas. If you are talking back in the day then I'll still stick with the 273. the 318 two barrel starts running out of...

I too will soon become a member. My deposit was sent last week so should be getting in the Q soon. My build is a 67 Dart, 360 (400 hp), 727 in the middle and, 390's in the back. Bobby

Guys, one additional question. Is ther any thing I need to be aware of or precautions I need to take when removing the existing header bolts, I do not want to screw something up. Bobby

Thanks to everyone for your input. This not my build so I did not know if any of the holes were wet or not. I do know the headers are held on with bolts and not studs. It was always my thought that the exhaust manifold or headers should be held on with studs. One my concerns with the bolts would...

I'm sure this is a novice questions but I'm asking it anyway. My Dart has Elderbrock performer aluminum heads. It currently has Hooker super comp 1 3/4 in headers. These headers have to go. I'm not sure what I'm going to do in the final product but in the short term I got a set of 360 high flow...

Do you know what year, are they high flow are standard.
