    Flex plate for 5.9 and 904

    Researching parts for my 5.9 swap into my dart which has a 904. Looking to keep the stock converter. Since the b&m flex plate is out of production, what are my options? I've heard some of the 5.9 magnum flex plates can be made to work (97 and up??) with a neutral balance 904 converter. Looking...

    Wheel fitment

    I recently upgraded my 69 dart to 73+ sliding caliper discs. I used SBP rotors to fit my current wheels which are 14" SBP. Only trouble is for some reason they hit the outside corner of the caliper when I try to put them on. Anyone else had this issue? Is the SBP wheel a different shape that the...

    Separating stuck inner tie rod ends

    I can’t get the inner tie rod ends out with a pickle fork so I’m wondering if its ok to hit the center link with a hammer to jolt the tie rod ends loose, or whether I need a balljoint puller.

    Throttle sticking

    My throttle recently started sticking just above idle when I take my foot off the gas. If I push up on the pedal from underneath it returns to idle. This is a 69 dart with the 2bbl linkage and a 340 intake, although it used to work fine. Does it just need lubrication? What are some things I can...

    Difficulties with filling the tank all the way up

    When I fill up the tank by letting the pump shut itself off, I always end up getting gas everywhere because the pump stops a split second too late, causing gas to splash out of the neck. Anyone else having similar issues? Any ideas? I live in california with the stupid the evap system pumps if...

    Mechanical temp gauge line routing

    I'm going to install a mechanical water gauge since all I currently have is the stock gauge which has been saying all sorts of nonsense. Where should I route the line through the firewall? I am planning on mounting the gauge under the dash below the ashtray.

    Daily driver small block build

    I am hoping to eventually have a warmed over small block in my daily driver 69 dart. This is not something I am in any rush to get done: I'd like to start collecting parts soon so I can have everything ready by next summer. Just trying to get advice on a starting point. Some main goals: -...

    Thermoquad tuning on 318

    Right now there are two issues I am facing: stumble right off idle and major bog when secondaries open. Idle mixture screws set for highest vacuum (21" Hg). Accelerator pump in either position did not affect situation. Metering rods adjusted 2 rotations from bottomed out. Air valve wound up...

    No start after intake and carb swap. Stumped

    I recently put a 340 intake and thermoquad on my 318. Got it all put together and it wouldn't start. Eventually after some time of cranking I got it to fire momentarily. Ran extremely rough before dying a few seconds later. I did have to take the distributor out to loosen the intake bolt...

    Thermoquad throttle and kickdown linkage

    Converting my 1969 dart 318 2bbl to a thermoquad and 340 manifold. I have the 340 throttle bracket installed. Which side of the throttle arm on the carb does the kickdown and throttle linkage go? And how should I go about lengthening the throttle linkage by 1/4"? There is plenty of cable but...

    Intake bolt

    I have heard that sbm intakes can be swapped without pulling the distributor, but I cant figure out how to get the bolt loose in the back drivers side corner. I have a 9/16 dizzy wrench on it but can’t get any leverage. How is this usually done?

    Thermoquad questions

    Just picked up a thermoquad off a 72 340 along with the intake manifold. For some reason, when I line up the carb with the holes on the intake, part of the throttle arm of the carb hits the intake, preventing it from sitting flat. Do I need a spacer, or am I just not seeing something? Also the...

    Fuel pump bad?

    My has been running just fine, but a few days ago I parked it and when I went to start it back up, the fuel filter was bone dry and was not filling with fuel at all while cranking. What are some things I should check?

    Pertronix rotor fitment

    i just installed the ignitor 2 kit on my 318, getting rid of the points. However, I can't get the rotor all the way on. It fits much tighter than the stock rotor and stops going down around 1/16" from where it should sit, preventing me from being able to get the cap on. Anyone else experience this?

    Connecting shift lever to rod

    I was pulling into a parking lot when I realized that my car was stuck in drive (column rotated fully but did not shift). Booked it towards home in D. Looked under the hood and saw that the shift rod from the tranny was disconnected from the lever on the steering column. I threw it into park by...

    painting 1969 dart GT moldings

    I have been wanting to paint the moldings (excluding the trunk lid panel because it is bashed in and must be replaced) on my dart gt because the original black paint is majorly worn off. On the other hand, I don't want to take the moldings off the car because they were hard to get on securely...

    Headlight short

    My headlights do function properly, but after 30 seconds of being on the switch itself gets hot and wisps of smoke come out of the dash. Could my switch itself be shorted even if it functions properly? Thanks as always

    Door alignment/sagging

    My driver's side door sags about 3/8" where it meets the body in the back. To open it from the outside I have to lift up the door significantly to get the latch to open. Door opens fine from the inside. Any ideas as to what is broken/worn out? Maybe just out of adjustment?
