    74 Duster Rear Bumper

    Does anyone know if an earlier Duster bumper will fit on a 74? I hate those big ugly things on the later models.

    833 4 speed

    What's a good price for an A-Body four speed. Saw one on auction for $499. It comes with the bell housing, shifter, and boot. What do you guys think?

    Windshield wiper parts

    Anybody know where to buy the little nylon fasteners that hold the windshield wiper arms to the motor and wiper bases. (The car is a 74 Duster) Thanks.

    Small block timing

    Hey, guys, I know this is a basic question, but I'm a novice with limited mechanical knowledge. Recently installed an Edelbrock intake and carb on a stock 74 Duster with a 318. I'm looking for guidance on how to time the motor (and at what degree(s) to set it. Also need to know the easiest...

    side stripe removal

    Anybody know how to remove the side stripes from a 74 Duster (without removing the paint underneath of course). I've heard a heat gun will work, but wondered if there is a chemical out there. Thanks.

    Intake Manifold Installation

    Time for me to pick your brains once again! I installed the new Eddy carb and manifold this weekend and thought everything was good,but now I am noticing a small amount of oil at the front base of the manifold and a larger amount at the rear. Not sure if the rear area is coming from the...

    edelbrock linkage

    Thanks, 340Butterduster. Is yours an original four speed or a conversion. Thinking about converting ours over.

    edelbrock linkage

    Hey guys. Well we got the Edelbrock intake and carb mounted, but now here's my dilemma. The Duster is a three speed car so the accelerator linkage is a cable type rather thank linkage. My question is: how do I connect it to the Eddy carb. Do they make an adaptor piece of some sort that...

    EGR or not

    Moparteacher, Thanks for all of the insight on how the EGR system was designed to work. Some of my components are questionable, so at the risk of contributing to air quality emissions, I have elected to eliminate them. I plan on blanking off the tvv port in the radiator, and am hoping that...

    EGR or not

    Help! My son recently bought a 1974 Duster with a 318 and three speed. He decided to replace the two barrel with and Edelbrock Performer and small four barrel. When he went to order the manifold he asked me if he needed an EGR or Non-EGR part. I assumed that the car was non-egr as there is no...

    looking for a real fm3 demon 340 1971.

    Hey, 340ButterDuster, Where did you get your specific paint production numbers from? I have a triple black 72 Swinger and have always been curious as to how many of those were made. Thanks!

    72 Demon Bench seats

    Does your seat have the release lever that sticks through the slot. My 72 Swinger has the original seat with the hinge cover like in the right photo.

    Do I need frame connectors?

    O.K. Stupid question of the day. What the heck are frame connectors?

    vinyl top

    I agree that the color of the car really makes a difference. I have a triple black 72 Swinger and the vinyl top really sets if off. We older guys grew up in a time when vinyl tops were pretty common, so maybe the younger guys don't care form them. (Although they do have kind of an "old school"...

    Intake compatibility

    Go it. Thanks, guys. I think I'll just yank the 318 and use it in my sons Dart and start working on the 360.

    Intake compatibility

    Thanks, Goody, I think that helps. One more question for you. Can you put 360 heads on a 318 and if so, will it breathe better. I have a complete 360 out of a 77 Ramcharger and I am not sure what type of heads came on it. Thanks, again. (And I really like your ride).

    Intake compatibility

    OK, guys, this is the stupid question of the day. Are intake manifolds from a 318 and 360 interchangeable? I currently have a 318 in my Dart and I'm going to buy an Edelbrock intake and carb. But I also have a 360 in the garage which will go in the Dart later. Will I be able to use the Edelbrock...

    Heater/AC Controls

    Thanks, pastortom1, I do have an extra control module if I need it. Since all of the buttons on the existing one a pushed in at the same time, I'm assuming that the inside of the unit are toast. I also don't know if all of the vacuum lines are still connected or not, so I may be looking...

    Heater/AC Controls

    I'm getting ready to attempt to repair the heater/ac control buttons on my 72 Dart. It looks like they are all pused in, but don't return to the out position. I have located a new set from a 70 donor car. Has anyone had experience with pulling the factory air from below the dash, and removing...

    Paint Production Numbers

    Does anyone know if there are production numbers that show how many of a particular color was produced for that model year. I see a lot that show each model generically, but not as to paint and trim.

    Hemi Block

    Yeah, sometimes the stuff just falls in your lap. Last month I found a guy with a 77 Ramcharger that looked like it just rolled out of the showroom. He was the original owner and the thing only had 62,000 miles on it. Anyhow, he was gonna build a stroker motor for it, and I picked up the complet...

    Hemi Block

    Does anyone know what a bare hemi block is worth. A neighbor of a friend had one in his garage and gave it to me. The casting number is 2468330 which I think denotes a 64 to 72, but I'll be damn if I can find a production date on it. Any advice?

    Scamp gets open body surgery!

    Thanks, Evilscamp. Worse case scenario I could pull the back seat and the door panel to peek down in there, but I figured as long as you have it apart.... from your picture it looks like there is a double wall there. Thats why I wondered if there are weep holes.

    Scamp gets open body surgery!

    Hey, Evilscamp. If possible, can you take a close up of the area below the rear window regulator and just behind where the back of the door closes? (Hope that makes sense). I have a small rusted area on the bottom of the sill, and was wondering if there is a drain hole plugged up in there. Thanks.

    Scamp gets open body surgery!

    You're a brave man, Evilscamp. Looks like it'll make it easier to get that rear window regulator out though.

    New guy in California

    Thanks, Zhandful. Originally the guy wanted $5900 for it, and I thought that was too much. He called me up a month later and was really hurting for money. (A lot of us know what it's like to be behind in alimony and child support.) You hate to take advantage of someone, but you can't pass...

    Vinyl top troubles...

    I recently had the vinyl roof replaced on my 72 Dart. The installer left the windshield molding and the rear window molding in place and was able to remove the old vinyl and install the new top that way. He made the same comment about breaking the clips and not being able to replace them. Of...

    New guy in California

    I'm a new member from California. Just wanted to post some pics (hopefully) of my 72 Dart. I recently picked it up for $2500 including the Stockton Rallys and a full TTI Dynomax system. I also have a copy of the original window sticker and found the build sheet under the back seat. Wasn't real...
