    Dantes parts

    I've had a few orders through them and had great experience and received parts in timely manner. I even sent an email about a discount and got quick positive response....that alone sold me to continue going through Dante's.

    My first Lynchburg VA outing.

    I finally was able to get to a local carshow and saw some cool cars. But now have to replace the flexplate because it started making noise on way to show and worse on way back to house. Plate is cracked around 3 mounting bolts. But was excited to get a trophy for best Dodge! Hope to get it back...

    A body top speed

    Wished I had GPS technology back in late 80's, but all I can go off of is numbers..... My 66 Cuda with a hot 273, 904, 7 1/4 rear with 2.76 gears and 235/60/14 tires running full throttle down a long open road at 7k RPM. Had friends that used to top end challenge the 66 all the time as teenagers...

    Moving near Crown Point, IN

    Yeah fortunately I've had the Cuda in the garage since it came off the trailer after first bath the following day. I want to get the insurance and tags swapped to Indiana before I get too excited about taking it out on the streets again so I don't get in trouble somehow. It seems like anything...

    Thank you krazykuda and Dana for the info! I will be checking out lots of what is listed and would love to meet up with members on here after I get my stuff moved up and settled in. I looked at a rental near the CP Community school and the lady said that a little waterpark is being built next to...

    Wont Start, Help

    Crank it with a spare spark plug put in the wire and see how strong the spark is and verify the timing also when cranking. If spark is strong, give it a few extra pumps of gas and see if it's just thirsty when starting.

    318 timing

    What condition is the rest of the ignition system....spark plug wires, spark plugs and what gap, distributor cap and rotor corrosion free at the contacts? You can have timing dead nuts correct, but a weak spark won't do any good. I have had the same starting issue after sitting to go in store...

    Excess pressure being created in engine? PCV valve and ventilation adequate?

    Did you ever get this figured out yet? Many posts with sizes and even pictures are throughout the tire and wheel forum once the search is used.

    Early A fuel cap change

    That's going to be nice when done.

    Hard starting 360

    Some engines are just different on cold starts. If the accelerator pump is working correctly, some engines take maybe 1 or 2 pumps of fuel before starting and others may take 3 to 5 pumps. And once running, if it starts running richer than at first, it's building up ice on the throttle blades...

    Keeping it simple but different for a change in appearance with the badges. I'll get them applied in a few days and post another picture.

    Put some aftermarket side mirrors on the Cuda since it didn't have any when I got it back.

    We're Under Attack!

    I'm not sure about squirrels, but TOMCAT mice killer is top notch for rats and mice. I used just 2 of the green food bars broken up around their "areas" and within a few days, they were gonners. I tried bleach and water mix sprayed, vinegar sprayed and mothballs during a 2 month timeframe with...

    Irma Update

    My spot in Lakeland took it well, we never lost power and fortunate we had neighboring houses to break most of the intensity of Irma. The winds were about mid 70 MPH as is crept up on us.

    mopars in the rain

    Well, as many has mentioned....TRACTION....lack of. I recently had my 66 out going to a few shows and got caught in the Florida showers and each stop light acceleration was like driving on ice. Glad no cops were around. The main thing would be to have a good cloth to wipe the inside of the...

    eclipse pictures

    About every couple minutes, I looked through my welding hood with 12 shade lense and took a few pictures eith my cell phone using 2 lenses stacked. The view was good, but better when I ran video then done screenshots of the sun on the video. The cloud and jet picture was just 1 lense. The...

    Who here has worked as a Porta Potty sucker ?

    I wouldn't be able to deal with that for a living. We have one at the shop for 4 of us to use and gets flushed every Thursday. I do make the time to befriend the guys that take care of us though and offer up cold beverage before he leaves because without them taking good care of us, the hot...

    engine compartment

    That will look great trimmed out! My block, heads, timing cover and pump are painted with the same paint used on my car. It looked great when fresh, but a PITA to maintain....lol
