    Anyone know about this drag strip in the Carlisle area ?

    Quarter Aces dragway was a short hop from this track. According to the website, South Mountain bought that property. They were supposed to have racing Friday but it was cancelled potentially due to no cars or low car count. As stated above, I usually took 15S to 81 to Carlisle. This year, Waze...

    JJ the Boss gets another A-body

    They, among others, are keeping the sport alive or added at least added spice IMO in an otherwise slowly dying sport with tracks closing everywhere. That's said, we need PINKS to be reborn even if under a different name.

    interchangeable Duster doors?

    I put 74 doors on my 73. The window mechanisms on 73 are unique so you need loaded doors, although the door latches are interchangeable

    360 Magnum flexplate / balancing experts !

    No expert here. I have a a 380 hp magnum with a 904 rmvb. I have a weighted high stall converter as well since the engine is externally balanced. The key is welding the weights on the converter or getting the correct flex plate so you dont have a hellacious vibration

    AMD discontinuing Dart panels ???

    As stated above, AMD is phasing out all mopar sheet metal. Ford and chevy is the future. I also heard they are destroying the dyes/molds as well due to lack of interest and demand.

    Mopar 360 380hp crate...whos running them ?

    I believe 2004 was the last year offered by Mopar Performance. I have seen some online offered for 10k which is ridiculous. I dont know if its greed, stupidity or both. No one in their right mind will fork that over. Might find one stored in a barn or removed from a running car to be replaced

    Mopar 360 380hp crate...whos running them ?

    These 380 hp motors always come up for discussion. Similarily, have we forgotten the 410 hp Mopar Performance crate motor? I never heard of anyone having one

    Mopar 360 380hp crate...whos running them ?

    A stripped down A body might get you in the 12s. I have that motor in a 3480 lb duster. According to online calculators, it's a mid 13 sec ride. Very disappointing. I havent tested it yet. In fact, pulled the heads and replace with eddys

    Are A bodies more popular than B bodies?

    One of the Mopar magazines about 10 years ago asked, "Will A Bodies be the new B bodies?? I'm 49 and I dont see it in my lifetime. As mentioned, B and E are to far gone to ever afford one. People cash out their IRA and spare no expense etc. To restore their Mopar or Nomad station wagon. A...

    Anti seize on spark plugs in aluminum heads?

    Bought a used 2005 camry. Pulled every bolt I could in the front end, derusted them and anti seized everything. Any other bolt I removed same thing. Same for my 73 Duster

    People dropping FI setups like hot potatoes

    90 percent have problems and the other 10 percent are the car shows who install them and testify a perfect install with zero problems.

    AMD parts. What I found out

    I agree,however, every car show I went to the same people almost always got a trophy. 1 a chevelle, the other a nova. They are nice cars and people DROOL over them. Meanwhile, my grandma had a duster like yours. Oh look, another chevelle!!

    AMD parts. What I found out

    Only speaking for myself, the AMD thing took the wind out of my sails. My car is solid now but if one gets another duster etc and the time comes where a bubble rears its ugly head, well, we know what surprises lie in wait. If you buy a car from a person who doesn't know the history or on his...

    AMD's response to discontinuing some MoPar product

    Question: How many approximately known dusters are left in the U.S. that can be used for parts? There are zero in New York State. How many unrestored complete cars are there?

    If you need new A body parts, buy them NOW - the Corona Virus

    Been to Carlisle. Very little sheet metal these days. A few sellers said they are tired of bringing sheet metal because it takes up space and people don't want to spend money at the show. So they toss it for scrap. I dont think most people want to wait a year for the possiblity of there being...

    If you need new A body parts, buy them NOW - the Corona Virus

    Regardless of the virus, AMD stopped producing panels that dusters NEED. Solid fenders are next to impossible. Quarters, us average guys are not fabricators. Fabricators, you are all awesome and are unaffected. Doors, people arent bringing them to swap because they are heavy. The list goes on...

    If you need new A body parts, buy them NOW - the Corona Virus

    Might be the last straw for me. It seems the non solid cars would be in demand and the once savable ones will be parts cars or all out race cars unable to return to the,street. People are not paying good money for the usual duster, everyone wants them for next to nothing even after repairs. I...
