    Adam-12

    I loved all these old shows. Was young enough they were all reruns on TV land. Idk if that's even still a station. Thus began my desire to have one of these as a bracket car some day :)

    Rock Auto discount code

    Just a tip, you can Google "rock auto discount" any time you need one, and usually the first 1 or 2 are good that pop up. Try this one. 249331811212288178

    Dot 4 or Dot 5 Brake Fliud?

    Your observstion is probably valid. I don't doubt it's a small number, and maybe brake piston seal rubber is simply different material. These are just old cars, with lord knows what kind of rebuilt, or aftermarket seals, just throwing it out there. I probably de-railed the thread a bit, but...

    Dot 4 or Dot 5 Brake Fliud?

    Agree with you. Straight from my guys at McLeod also. It 1000% can eat seals. I have only seen maybe 3 internal tobs fail in my life, and all have been dot 5 induced.

    Dot 4 or Dot 5 Brake Fliud?

    Correct. Hydraulic TOB with clutch master cylinder.

    Dot 4 or Dot 5 Brake Fliud?

    I know we are only talking brakes here, but I have seen dot 5 eat the seals out of several throw out bearings. I have nothing to base my opinion on other than a guess, but I would guess a silicon based fluid isn't compatible in every brake caliper out there. Maybe I'm wrong. But I know 5 voids...

    Column lever pin

    I lost patience and cut that entire collar off lol, but I was probably 16 at the time and going a million miles an hour.

    Reducing the Beak?

    Funny because thats typically the GM way..."Hey guys, I know we just launched the new 1/2 ton, but the boys in mexico just found a bunch of last gen body panels....so lets keep the base model 3/4 ton in production, and run it for 15 more years"

    Reducing the Beak?

    i was shocked at the weight of my front 74 bumper and shocks. i bet it was 100 lbs between all of it. MOSTLY the inner structure, but the outer shell was alot too. spring mount surprisingly weren't as nuts as I thought they would be.

    Reducing the Beak?

    thanks!! 69 cuda hood is interchangeable with the 73-76 dart. I sold My old steel hood to a 69 cuda guy. Fun fact!

    Reducing the Beak?

    Looks great! I was wondering why no one else pointed out, that someone wanting to change a dart, to a duster nose, needs the whole nose, as fenders are not interchangeable (agreeing with you). And I didn't see anyone else mention it for the OP.

    Reducing the Beak?

    I think the tucked bumper helps alot. I also sectioned mine. For your reference, one with a six pack scoop and blacked out hood. Question: I haven't seen anyone (unless I missed it) note that the duster/scamp fenders are a completely different length from a dart/demon. I mistakingly bough...

    Blueprint 408 carburetor

    I by no means claim to be an avs expert, and this gentleman can lean on experienced edelbrock users such as yourself if he decides to go that route. For a facility with the capacity to manufacture 140 engines a day, all dyno tested, we need carbs to work out of the box for us, with minor...

    Blueprint 408 carburetor

    Pm me the serial # if you can find it. Should be on a dog tag on the side of the block. I will look and see what rockers it has, adjustable or non. I assume if they are adjustable...you re adjusted them already?

    I need schooling - old vs. new engines

    Agree 100%. 400+ intake CFM at .650 on a set of worked apache 6.4 heads. pretty wild number More efficient combustion chamber, mpfi, more streetable horsepower. I'm having fun playing with these....looking forward to launching at sema :)

    la 360 aftermarket/remanufacture tag i.d.

    That did in fact start as one of ours! not sure what's been done to it since 2017 when it was built, but it came to life here! was sold originally to Summit, so I don't have any other history as far as ownership or use, as the purchaser never registered it. We do still have a dyno sheet on...

    Help me understand these "crash" videos?

    Here's one that breaks my heart, as it contains two of my bucket list cars, but I can't help but seek an explanation here. #1, no I don't condone street racing, but I have built and owned 500-800 hp street cars since I was 16, so I have my fair share of stupid decisions, and close calls, but...

    408 Stroker in a Dart

    These engines are extremely streetable. Everything we do is a performance street engine. Pump gas, runs cool, great torque, should do very nice for you. I love the aluminum headed, roller engine. Anything specifically I can help with let me know.

    408 Stroker in a Dart

    Thanks all! Lots of happy BluePrint 408 owners out there. It's unfortunate the supply chain is slowing everyone down, but we have slowly been building the mopars, and have rectified the cam shortage. Still have a backorder of about 100 to dig out of, but we are moving along. Definitely a...

    Where does this part go?

    Wouldn't be a grille support off of something would it? Mounts to core support, and just has a little tab to keep a grille from vibrating? Edit...I was thinking this, but looking at various A Bodies I'm incorrect.

    Windshield replacement in winter time?

    I would 1000% agree with the statement that safelite is $$$. I only used them bc they were covered by my insurance plan. If it was out of pocket, I would have shopped elsewhere I'm sure.
