    Ignition wiring questions

    Would this change since I have an HEI distributor and jumped the brown and blue together to bypass the resistor?

    Ignition wiring questions

    Hey all, Working on my 1972 Plymouth Duster 318 project car. I needed a new column and have gone with a keyless column. I am going to use a Peerless universal ignition switch and mount it in the dash. I am also installing a remote mount kill switch inline on the start wire. My question is if...

    Hood release cable mounting question

    Hey all, I was hoping I could get a photo from someone with a 1970-1972 Duster with a cable release hood. I am trying to figure out where to mount the bracket that is attached to the cable by the latch release behind the grill. I will attach a photo of mine for clarification. Thanks in advance!

    Intake/carb adapter question

    Hey all, This old Mopar performance single plane intake came with the 318 when I bought my 1972 Plymouth Duster. I just swapped an old Holley spreadbore for a 1406 Edelbrock Performer carb. The manifold is set up with bolts for different carb styles, but it looks like a Thermoquad/spreadbore...

    I’m struggling (ign1 ign2 combining)

    Hey all, After a separate post, I know I need to combine start and run power into a single wire for my ignition coil. I upgraded from points to an internal module HEI distributor. I am trying to figure out which wires to combine. I will post a couple photos, if anyone can confirm... i feel...

    This is a 72 Block and when I pulled the bolts, three of them were wet with coolant... definitely in the water

    Wiring HEI coil

    Thanks for the response. So just to make sure I understand it right, I want to combine Ign1 and Ign2 and run that wire to the coil? That way it has power on startup and running?

    Wiring HEI coil

    Ok my lovelies, This should be the last time I bug you all before firing up and breaking in the 318. I installed a new HEI distributor with an internal module. I have it wired up, but I know I need to run a wire from the positive side of the coil to 12v power. My question is do I hook it to...

    Leaking from head bolts

    Alright after pulling the valve covers and headers, I was able to thread seal all the bolts. There were three interior head bolts total that were “wet” so I am glad I did this or I would have had coolant getting into the oil. I called it quits for the night before tackling the ***** that is the...

    Leaking from head bolts

    Hey all, I once again come to you seeking wisdom. The Duster project was ready to be started for camshaft break in. When doing a final prime on the oil pump, I noticed some antifreeze drips under the car. I have tracked the leak to a couple of head bolts on both sides. This 318 motor came with...
