    Diesel engine swaps

    A 12v cummins is pretty much completely mechanical. Few odds and ends are electric, but they dont require a computer to run. Thats one of the reason people want to swap in 12v vs the 24v cummins.

    Diesel engine swaps

    I know its not an A-body, but still for the reference, they do fit in small cars

    Diesel engine swaps

    My cousin is putting a 6bt into a dart. Its a full tube chassis car though. My other cousin put an old 12v into a fox body mustang. They do fit, they are just really tall, so a hood really isnt an option. Diesel is the way to go for power honestly. The foxbody running a small turbo, slightly...

    What non Mopars do you have?

    Yeah they can be stupid quick! If I'm not wrong don't they have the 4g63 out of the lancers?

    What non Mopars do you have?

    Still love my 73 dart swinger to pieces, but have a soft spot for the Japanese imports. Unlike the States, Canada has a 15 year import rule, so because of that I could import my 98 Toyota Aristo 2 years ago. For those that don't know its essentially a Supra with 4 doors. Pretty hard to beat a...

    Plan of Attack

    I dont even know what that is in the "oil" lol. Personally I would pull it out if you wanted to use the same motor. Water and other crap probably got in there. Did any decent oil come out at all? I guess if you would throw in a 360 you could put some new oil in and try to start the 318 lol.

    Oil pressure concerns, fact or myth

    Ive always liked 20-30 psi at idle, but like stated 10 psi per 1000 rpm works well in most applications. My dart s 360, with a pressure fed lifter solid roller cam runs 35 at idle and exactly 60 above 2k rpm all the time. To add, when I was working as an operator in a shipping yard some of the...

    What direction to go

    Srt4 would be pretty cool, never thought about one of those. 5.2 and 5.9 would be cool, with would have to turbocharge to reach my goal. How do 5.9s take boost? I don't really want to rebuild a motor again out of cost lol. I don't think I've ever seen one with station wheels around me, they...

    What direction to go

    Thats what I was thinking, just be different! I havent found anybody thats done it unfortunately. Itll be converted to 5x4.5 bolt pattern, so Ill have two sets of rims, street and track tires. It can share the slicks on the dart for a trip to the drag. My friend has one with the stock I4. He...

    What direction to go

    Yeah I was thinking about an RB, but I can get a 2J and transmission up here for cheap. The problem if it makes sense its it almost seems "Too easy" to do that swap because its been done so many times. But Ive seen a few rbs being built, its amazing how beefy they are in stock form let alone...

    What direction to go

    I know lots of people that have gone the 2j and ls route, and ive ridden in an ls with a single and 250 shot. The platform fits so many different combos. Thats what made my end up buying the car. Because they just feel so nimble to drive.

    What direction to go

    Not a mopar but I thought you guys would be good to ask. I have a little nissan 180sx as a project car (have a 73 dart too so Im still a mopar guy :D) But wasnt too sure where to ask it. Right now its just a shell without a motor or transmission. The car is small, and only weighs about 2600...

    Help a Mopar guy out and vote

    Voted! The 69 Barracuda on round 2 matchup 4 is my uncles car! Seen that thing when it was being built and raced, one mean car!

    roller cam in la engine

    I have an LA 360 with retrofit solid roller lifters from MRL. The cam I am running is a lunati, 237/243 @50 .566/.578 lift. Really love the cam! The engine is a stock stroke 360 with eddy heads, roller rockers, dougs headers, holley 650 and a dual plane intake (planning on changing to a better...

  20. DartVadar

    What is this engine worth?

    Exactly, I dont know how they can even make it for that, my 360 shortblock costed more than that! And I did all the work.

    Over $6000 to install TTI headers on 66 Barracuda

    Jeez thats expensive! I hate installing headers but not enough to want 6k to change em.

    Jegs Vs. Summit

    Summit all the way. I have had no issue with getting things from them, especially up here in Canada. Just ordered a few things from them actually.

    Critique this 440!

    Been sitting for a while without oil from the looks of it (rusty around oil filter adapter), and the cam probably still needs to be broken in. Wonder what the bores look like as well if the exhaust ports have been open for a while, moisture probably got in.

    1967 426 Street Hemi ~ Production Numbers

    VHT wrinkle paint

    Yup ive noticed this too, especially if you spill a bit of oil in it, dirt sticks to it like crazy.

    Mopar Addicts - How'd You Get Hooked?

    My grandpa and great grandpa were racers, they had hemi cars. A hemi cuda, 67 Hemi gtx and a hemi dart (cant remember the year) This was all way before my time (I'm only 20), but just hearing about the stories and seeing the car (the gtx) made me fall in love with mopars! I unexpectedly got into...

    What is a 361 big Block ?

    A while ago when I first heard about the 361 I just thought somebody made a typo and meant to write 360 LOL

    Is it worth it?

    Yea its hard to say, he said the heads were just sitting there, the the crank was just sitting inside as well, so it could be good or really rough, the 8 3/4 has 3.23 gears, and he didn't know much about the trans. If it was complete and unopened up, even kinda running I would probably take it...
