Hi, Just wondering if anyone bought from this seller before. Exhaust Manifold 198 & 225 6-(SLANT-6cyl) Dodge Chrysler Plymouth Pickup Van Car | eBay Mine is cracked at multiple places. Cheers Syed Malaysia

Hi there I have a '66 Dodge Dart with a 170CID motor and A904 trans. There is quiet a major leak at the torque converter area. Im about to order this kit: http://www.ebay.com.my/itm/300780301311?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 and im wondering if it is for my...

Took the distributor out today to correct some timing issues. Apparently the timing runs off if I rev it hard a few times from idle. Upon inspection I found that the nylon pinion on my Prestolite slant six dostributor has seen better days. Even though that might not be the culprit, I better...

Coil is already on the inner fender

Yes, upgraded to Electronic Ignition using a DIY J-Cars Australia module and the points as the "trigger" only. Car ran fine for the last couple of months or so, still does. But I never really touch the coil when the engine is warm until sometime last week when a friend pointed out that the coil...

My coil get really hot and I've been told the coil should only be "warm" to touch and if its not, there must be some short somewhere in the wiring. Is this true? should I be concern? Thanks Syed

This is my bracket for the sanden compressor. THought you might be interested. Syed

Here is the picture of the said socket (arrow)

I did not use the immerse-type thermostat so I cant use the factory sensor location. I fabricated an aluminum plate about 1.5" by 1.5" and drill a hole, mount the "dry" thermostat to the plate and screw the plate to the front of the cylinder head where the fuel pipe is secured to the cylinder...

Update : the engine cutting out problem has mysteriously cured itself... Took the car out today and engine ran fine no matter how hard i turned.... !!

Hi. I have just converted my '66 slant six mechanical fan to electric fan. Rite now im using a 185F/205F thermo switch for the fan i.e. The fan switch on at 205 deg and switch off at 185 deg. With this setup, the OEM temp gauge shows about 2/3 when the fan cuts in and about 1/2 when the fan cuts...

That's the "driver" side inner fender for me (RHD car) hehe :) But yeah thanks for the insight. Will take a look at it when I have some time. Syed

Ok will check the float when I have some free time, then... :)

Read my post above, the carb was rebuild 2 months ago and ran perfect till very recently :) Thanks anyway. Syed

Did that a couple of months ago. i.e. rebuilt the carb. Its a Holley 1920 taken from a running car (a fellow forumer's car) which I and my Father in Law rebuilt using a rebuild kit we ordered from Ebay. Ran "perfect" all this while... until very recently that is. Syed

Hi all As the title says... My Slant6 will cut out intermittently when I make a sharp left turn... sometimes if i manage to "catch" it i.e. shift quickly into N and blip the throttle, the engine will rev back up and will drive fine again... until the next left turn that is... it is fine on...

Thanks, I have the '66 Shop manual. I agree with you, I think something is loose/worn in the distrubutor. Oh well... time to upgrade to HEI i guess... Syed

Yes the distributor is tight and won't move by hand. What puzzles me is that I can set it at 2.5 n it runs perfect for about 20 miles then its like it has mind of its own. Even if I set it at 6-10 static timing by the time I drive a good distance, it will be off again and start pinking. Do u...

I trued setting the ignition timing today to 2.5 deg BTDC as per factory but the mark was running all over I.e. Very unstable. I set the thing the best I can and took a long drive, after about 50 miles of driving the engine start pinking badly at anything above 1/3 throttle. I suspect the timing...

The alternator is a generic Bosch brand, usually found in older mercedes or bmw such as W123 and E36. Syed

Too late i guess... Here are a couple of pictures, painted, and installed on RH inner fender. Runs like a charm, very smooth and I can feel theres more mid-range torque. Im very happy with the results. Syed

Yeah I believe so - haven't been to Perth since then. If all goes well, I should be installing this baby on Sunday. Will keep you guys posted :) Syed

its a kit, bought years ago in Perth, Australia for like A$80 but never got the chance to build/install it. I think its at least 5 yrs old. But hopefully all works well. Will keep u updated once fitted.

Rite now im just gonna use the points as the trigger but im sure this can be develop further to use magnetic pickup etc. later. Here are some pictures, before installation: This will eventually be painted and attached to the inner fender. What do you think? :) Syed

This looks more reasonably priced ($40). Should fit my '66 slant six? http://www.ebay.com/itm/380146162511 Syed

Yeah thats the remote oil filter. As for the steering box. and heres from the bottom and here is the gearshift linkage coming from my "driver" side Syed
