    8 3/4 differential swap issues...

    Thanks for the input "demon seed" and "fishy68".... I'm pretty sure it's the cone type... I just rebuilt a clutch type about a year ago... I guess I can replace the trust block or thrust pin if it's missing or replace the axle bearings?... I have not pulled the axles out again since I was...

    8 3/4 differential swap issues...

    I have a 67 Dart 340, 4 speed with a transplanted 72 engine, 4 speed overdrive, and differential. The differential pumpkin is a 1820657, a C body diff (58-64) with 3.58:1 (yes, I said 3.58) gears, an open rear (non-sure grip). Wanting to put a sure grip, I bought a 489 pumpkin with 3.55:1 gears...

    anyone know what this goes to

    Could be a dust cover for a big block 10-1/2" or 11" clutch or even a small block. I don't remember if there's a number stamped on it, but there are at least 2 sizes, maybe even 4. Good luck.

    WWII Pic of my Dad

    I read the the thread and wanted to put my 2 cents in... My dad was in the Army in the 320th Glider Field Artillery of the 82nd Airborne. He was chief of a gun crew and flew in a glider with 105 MM howitzer. He served and fought in battles in Sicily, Italy, North Africa, France, Holland...

    How many CFM for my 340?

    O.K., I know about the math calculations for CFM, that's why when I read 750 would work on a 340 had me questioning if it was too much CFM, but the concenus has been it works. That all depends on it's use. And after rebuilding an Edelbrock 1407 and replacing the 1405 (which I just started...

    How many CFM for my 340?

    I'm running only 60 PSI right now (25 PSI is minimum) and most of the lift you see is from the 6 leaf springs and slightly bigger rear shakels. Although, when I removed the old shocks, I noticed the right side upper shock bolt was loose to the body. After assembly it was still loose. Later I...

    How many CFM for my 340?

    Thanks for all the interesting replies and for the nice comments on the car. The car still needs more work, I just need the time. Anyway, the Edelbrock 1407, 750 CFM carb goes on tomorrow. And it goes to a car show Saturday. Right now we're having great muscle car weather And for 67yelodart...

    How many CFM for my 340?

    Thanks for the reply...... The 650 CFM was a mental typo. Thanks for correcting me. The 1405 Edelbrock is a 600 CFM. I'm planning to put a 1407 (750 CFM) on the Edelbrock Performer RPM, which I believe is a dual plane intake, but a thermoquad (spread bore) won't fit that manifold without some...

    How many CFM for my 340?

    My 67 Dart 340 4 speed is going to get carb replacement. The car has a 6 pack style air scoop on the hood that's got a 16" round cut out for my 14" K&N air filter. Right now the air cleaner is pushed up into air comming in by 2 spacers of about 3" to 4" above the carb. I have a 650 CFM Edelbrock...

    Who Has a Dart?

    Actually, my last comment was directed toward posting #48 from 67yelodart. It being a '67 2 door post car in yellow. Post cars are harder to find usually. But, in these replies, #1 ABodyBetty has '67 4 door post car. And others are #51 chlngr1970 '68 2 door post car (in chrome), #84 tomt966 '68...

    Who Has a Dart?

    This is my first DART (A body)... I've had it less than a year... It's a '67 DART CUSTOM, 2 door post car, repainted in yellow.... It's was built in L.A. with a 225 slant six, 3 speed stick... It now has a 340, 4 speed, 11" disc brakes up front and 10" X 2" drums with an 8-3/4 rear (3.58:1)...

    Front End Problems

    This is what I found. The lower control arm bushings were shot and the pins were now way off center. That probably is what caused the torsion bar adjusters to rub the frame and hang up on it, as it was suggested. The driver's side lower control arm ball joint knuckle was bent back. Both struts...

    Front End Problems

    I'm also having a tough time separating the ball joints. Upper and lower and tie rods. I am planning to replace all the bushings and ball joints, not to mention the upper control arms, lower control arms, and spindles. Again thanks for everyone's input.

    Front End Problems

    I tried to read the part numbers off of my spindles/steering knuckles. If your lucky you can read 3 digits maybe 340_ _ _ _ from the forgings. I believe an an A & E body disc brake spindle would be 3402628 for '73 to '76, which is shorter height wise than a B body disc spindle 3402640 by at...

    Front End Problems

    My car has dic brake steering knuckles, not sure which ones. They appear to be left/right reversed, which causes the brakes to be mounted to the rear rather than the front as a factory installation. Good or bad? Is there any offset? One thing is for sure it helps clear some sway bar interference...

    Front End Problems

    Right now what I have is not working. I'll work on it in my spart time. Or I'll take it to a shop where someone knows what they are doing. I'm trying to get this car in a movie and I have less than a month to get the front end fixed and working. I feel it will be a really fun car to drive when I...

    Front End Problems

    I have a 3 day weekend. Does anyone in the NJ area know of any good Mopar Junk Yards? When I was searching for parts last Saturday and here are pix of the Barracuda front drum brake and sway bar (same lower control arm sway position as my Dart). The others are the 74 Dart 318 with disc brakes...

    Front End Problems

    My 67 Dart was modified before I bought it. The front end steering is unstable, wandering all over the road, with the front end rising and dropping. The car was originally a 6 cylinder car. It now has a 340 motor. It also now has 4 on 4.5" studded brakes on all fours with 11" discs in the front...

    67 Dart brake change

    72bluNblu, pettybludart, lhearold, cosgig, 69DartGTS, thanks for the help. The pedal when pumped in succession, holds most of the time, but maybe every third or 4th pump goes to the floor. With the pedal going to the floor, I would expect to see some fluid accumulating somewhere on the ground...

    67 Dart brake change

    What do you think of this proportioning valve? It's a KH Disc brake proportioning valve for 11" front disc brakes with 11" X 2.5" drums in the rear. This was from a 1978 pickup. And here is a photo of a new master cylinder that I would use as a replacement. What do you think of that? Am I...
