Need some help here I am converting my 65 Dart 273 to hydraulic cam and lifters and can’t find the right length pushrods. I did not get hydraulic rocker arms and kept the mechanical adjustable ones. Do I need to get hydraulic rocker arms as well and will the OE rocker shafts fit ?

I have a stock 65 Dart with a 273 with a four barrel Edelbrock and Performer intake manifold. Stock transmission. It was originally a two barrel engine. I am looking to order a Howard’s cam and lifter set. I do not have a factory service manual and was wondering if anyone could chime in with...

I purchased a solid cam and lifter kit from Summit for my 65 Dart back in December. It’s on a huge back order. Anyone know any other good sources that may have one available? TIA

Hello, 65 Dart with a 273. It's time for cam and lifters. I haven't checked compression and leakdown yet. I have a couple of questions. If compression and leakdown check out ok. What's the best option for a new cam and lifters? Should I stick to stock? Second, if it needs heads or worse what...

Hello y'all Can someone point me the right direction. 65 Dart with 273 won't start. No crank. Has power. Battery is fine. I jump the starter and it fires up. The dash harness looks worn out. I would like to wire a push start button and call it a day. Can anyone give me the short version as to...

Like the tile says. I cannot find engine mounts for my 273 V8 Dart. I'm only really looking for the passenger side. All aftermarket parts #s I've been given are on backorder. I found a set of aftermarket ones with brackets for $400.00 and I'm not looking to spend that much. Let me know what...

I am replacing the motor mounts on my 273. Got new ones from Napa but they don't look right. I confirmed and this is what they list for a 65 Dart. The old ones I took out look like they are for a Slant 6. Anyone else come across this?

I'm installing shorty headers. Can anyone show me pics of their offset oil filter housings installed. I think I got the wrong one.

I'm installing shorty headers and I think I got the wrong offset oil filter adapter. Anyone have a pics of theirs installed.

Hello FABO!! I have a 65 Dart with a 273. I'm trying to make room for headers. What year mini starter should I be looking for? Additionally, will I need any sort of pigtail or do the factory power and ground cables work on these?

Hello y'all. I have a 65 Dart and need some advice. My exhaust manifolds leak even after I replaced the gaskets. I removed them and installed some shorty headers I had for a 318 and the driver's side hits the gear box. I'm having a hard time finding new exhaust manifolds or headers that will...

I have a 65 Dart with stock 273. I just converted the front drum brakes to disc using 73 stuff including dual circuit master cylinder and prop valve. Before I start bending brake lines. Does anyone have a pic of how they are routed. I know what side goes where in the valve. I am just looking at...

Hello. What's the best plan to get a trans filter adapter kit for my 904? I already purchased a deep pan but the one hole adapter will not fit. I need a 2-hole adapter. Thanks

Hello, Couldn't find much info for early a bodies on this. I've got a 65 Dart with 273 and A904 trans. I converted it to a four barrell carb with Edelbrock Performer. What has everyone done with their throttle cables and kickdown rod. Someone told me to install a throttle bracket from a 340 but...

How's does VHT blue exhaust header paint hold up? Does it fade quickly? I've got some cheap Hedman headers I was going to wrap and paint blue.

So I replaced my timing chain, spark plugs, installed 4 barrell carb and Edelbrock Performer on my 273. Takes a bit for it to start like the timing is off. When the engine is idling, I can't see the timing mark on the crank anywhere near the timing pointer. I removed the #1 plug and rotated...

Hello, I am converting my 273/904 to a 4 barrel carb using Edelbrock Performer for 318. Doing research and found I need a later year throttle bracket and kickdown rod. Does anyone have the factory kickdown rod for 68-72 small block?

Can anyone show me where the throttle and kickdown cables goes in this Holley 4160 set up?Thank you.

I don't know how old the timing chain is in my 65 Dart with 273. Since I am replacing the water pump, I figured I would go a step further and replace it. I read in the FSM that you need a camshaft tool C-3509 to hold the cam in place. My question is do I really need that tool which I don't have...

Well folks. I've decided to use these cheap Hedman headers I have and the driver side looks like a PITA due to the intermediate shaft and great box being in the way. Would it be easier to disconnect the shaft from the steering box and by doing so, will it give me enough clearance to remove the...

Working on upgrading my 65 with 273 to #302 318 heads. Are the head bomts reusable. Can I also be pointed the right direction for head torque specs for 318 heads and Edelbrock Performer intake manifold. HEADS Probably coming out of 91 Dakota. Thank you

OK here is my dilemma. I have an early 65 Dart and swapping over to 4 barrell carb. I'm having a difficult time finding the correct manifold due to the weird bolt angle. What choices do I have in newer heads? I don't want to change the cam and want to keep the internals stock. Thanks for your...

Looking for either Offenhauser or Edelbrock D4B intake manifold for my early 65 Dart with 273.
