    holley 1920 carb swap with carter 3238s?

    Hi Oppielight, I have '66 Dart Wagon (225 automatic trans) with a Holley 1920. The guy I bought the car from messed up the carb and linkage. It floods continuously. What Carter did you end up getting and where? The forums seem to like the Carter carbs. Steck

    '66 Dart Wagon - Swapping out rear end for a 8 1/4 - gear ratios????

    Sounds like 3.23 is the way to go. Now I just have to find one. If I was doing mostly freeway cruising, would you still recommend the 3.23? How of big of a job is it to swap out the 4.1 for the 3.23, if I can't find anything else?

    Hi autoxcuda, Quick question regarding the Fall Fling. If I am going up to the swap meet this Saturday, is there an entrance price and should I have already registered and paid. Up until now, I was not sure if I could make it. Also any idea what 8 1/4's are costing these days? I am also...

    '66 Dart Wagon - Swapping out rear end for a 8 1/4 - gear ratios????

    Hi All, I am new to the Forum and a newbie to working on rear ends. I want to convert to front disc and go up to LBP wheels. So I am going to swap out the rear end and looking at 8 1/4. I have found one for $500 (I am in Southern CA) that was taken out of a '74 Duster. It has a 4.10 gear...

    Hi Autoxcuda, I am looking at a 74 dart with a 318. It has front disc and still trying to determine what the rear end is. It is pretty rough otherwise. He wants $950 but hopefully, I can get him down some. I was hoping for about $750. Does that sound like a good possibility. What do you think...

    Hey Autoxcuda, I have a line on a possibility of a 74 Dart. Has discs on the front. Not sure yet on the rear end. He wants $950, but I hope to get him to come down some as it is pretty trashed otherwise. It has a 318 in it with A/C. What are the odds of it having an 8 1/4? Steck

    Hey Toolmanmike, Thanks for the welcome. I imagine you have seen the posts relative to converting to disc brakes. Did you do a swap on your GT? I am pretty much a newbie and trying to learn all I can and get this underway. One thing I need is a new Holley 1920. The prior owner did some...

    Hi Autoxcuda, The Fall Fling has been recommended and I will probably be coming. Trying to see if the donor car could meet most of my requirements. I am still a newbie to much of this, how do sellers deal with newbies asking lots of questions? What are you thoughts on donor cars? Thanks for...

    Hey Adriver, Yes, I have learned of the sbp and lbp issue. To be honest, it initially a surprise once I started doing the disc brake upgrade. So if I use a 74 Dart as a donor, I will be going from a sbp to a lbp with the disc brake upgrade. I have talked to several folks and it could either...

    Hey ZooKypr, The photo hides some of the issues... The last owner gave her a paint job with a roller. The front seat is trashed. The carb also had some interesting mods and needs to be replaced (Holley 1920). Trying to figure out the next steps. I want to upgrade to disc brakes which opens a...

    Thanks for the welcome. Looks like you have done a lot on your Cuda. I am still trying to figure where I am going to go with the wagon. I want to keep it mostly stock, but would like to upgrade to disc brakes. But as I have now found out... that begins quite a long trail of swapping out the...

    I have hit A Bodies site a few and joined up, highly recommended by the President of San Diego MOPAR club. I have had the Dart for a little over a month and want to begin going through it. I want to upgrade to disc brakes in the front, swap out the 7 1/4 rear end for an 8 1/4 or 8 3/4, while...
