I bought a Cummins and it's accompanying 727 off there for $500, just before I went to Fort Worth to see ChallengerGary. I was an Intercooled one to boot. Seen some really good deals on there, but they are usually several hundred miles away. Mark.

Yeah, that's right, it's not a hobby, it's just a place for people with a few $$ to squirrel it away until the economy comes back. You tell us, now. Whatever happened to it just being because you actually love and enjoy the cars and the hobby? Don't get me wrong, I try to make money doing what...

I've been finding that the dealer inventories are usually being bought back by Chrysler in a buy back program, or some of the big time NOS buyers are already on the phones finding out which dealers are/have been dropped by Chrysler. Some saw this coming way in advance and had it locked in...

What's so unusual about those? :dontknow: Seen numerous sets of them through the years. Mark.

At least you're admitting you're trying to flip them for profit, but that tends to be taboo here. It would've probably been better to just ask it's value and make no comment on it being for re-sale. Personally, I don't normally ask "What's it worth" questions, because I can generally look...

I doubt that yard still exists and look at the business Rick is in/works for. Do you really think he'd share a yard like that with the rest of us? I know I'd have troubles doing it, myself. :) Even if it does exist and you can buy parts, the owner is surely clued in by now, that's why there's...

Chocolate underwear moment if I ever saw one. Glad the driver's okay. Mark.

Last part I gave away I paid the postage, but he's definitely a Member of great standing and in need of a hand, but I understand your disgruntlement, especially if he told you he'd pay postage. Mark.

If you use either the '73-'76 a body spindles or the F/M body spindles, they will work just fine with the 11.875 rotors off the Magnum You also need the calipers and mounts from the Magnum. Mark.

You do realize that complete 401 is at a minimum a $450 core engine, right? Last 1 I had was a turning core and I got that out if very easily, in fact it was sold before I even got it pulled. AMC/Jeep guys go bananas trying to find them. Mark.

I'm gonna' probably piss you off and I don't care. What is wrong with a classic Chevy or Ford? They are just as cool and unique as any old Mopar is, in some way even more so. I wouldn't mind if someone pulled in my drive with a '77 Camaro, or an old Galaxie XL, I might make a few jokes or...

You need some mufflered sidepipes, or an in-dash JBL AM-FM, 8 track, CB Radio to add to the theme? :D Also have a choice of magnetic mount or trunk lip mounted CB antenna. How about some Cragar/Rocket big n' little 15"X 6 & 8 mags? Damn, I really need to get rid of some junk. :( Or maybe not...

Poh' guy, got 'is neck stretched 427 times. :( Mark.

Hmm, I've always found them on the driver's side of the bodies, in some form or another, but never seen any (so far) on the passenger's side. Found more than one stamped on the back side of the frame rail, near where it drops below the cowl. I've yet to actually see an A body stamped in the...

There were some 1970 'C' bodies with 360s. They were installed in higher line Dodge 4 door hardtops. There is supporting documentation for this, in the form of a TSB. Unfortunately, there is nothing supporting it's usage in anything else during 1970, no trucks, no vans, nothing. Mark.

Body #s on A bodies are located primarily on the radiator core support, towards the driver's side, on the inside of the support. Depending on year, they can also be on the driver's side trunk seal lip, stamped from the underside. The number consists of the assembly plant, year and sequence...

In the case of all of the 3418915 related castings, I think it's possible there was a foundry/vendor issue and the casting letters actually represented the different foundries involved. I have yet to see a 1970 340 that was assembled at a plant other than the Windsor engine assembly...

I've heard this bogus urban legend about W-2s in factory applications for YEARS. Do people even realize what one off parts are necessary to even attain this idea? If it makes it to production, IT HAS A PART NUMBER! I want part/casting numbers of exhaust manifolds or headers and associated...

1979 was the first year trucks under 1 ton were built with convertors, C&C 1 ton trucks/vans were available w/o convertors until, I think, 1983. The '79 LRT is a light duty truck, therefore subject to emissions regs. A 4 barrel carb does not a 340 make. There is no hard and fast way to find a...

In '67 and '68 the "AX" area of the tag can have 2 numbers, for example, 48 codes as a 3.23 with suregrip, with '4' denoting 3.23 and '8' denoting suregrip. On the 1969 up tags, certain "axle packages" were called out on the fender tag, but usually 8-3/4 codes were on the B/S only. On some of...

Everything the auto industry does is either for easy identification on the assembly line, or to improve an existing part. In the first run or 2 of 340 cars there were NO 'X'es cast into the 2531894 head casting, which led to assembly line confusion between them and the 273/318 heads, so...

Looks like power lost and a tree (pole?) won. :( Hell, ya' oughta' just re-cab the truck and go have fun. WAY cheaper than the way you're trying to go, and just as much fun. Looks like someone did a lot of very nice work on that truck, be a shame to waste all that effort over a simple to change...

Somebody probably won't be happy that you didn't ask to take pics.... A body 8-3/4, $350, $500-$650 if it's a suregrip, top end if it's a 3.91. Sway bar and arms, if not bent, $150. Rebuildable '71 340 longblock, it DOES at least have 'J' heads from the pics, $1000 or more to some...

There's a complete set-up listed in the 'For Sale' area....:D Mark.

Just shipped a Super Six set-up out to-day and did a HOLY CRAP routine when I went to have UPS Store pack and ship it. They wanted $70 to pack it, plus another $53 to ship it! Brought it back home, got a box from the local grocery store, used every conceivable piece of material I could find to...

Got 1 like that around here somewhere. Do you have a Hitachi TV with a problem, moto? :D Mark.

A 360 mag. has a 'scallop' cut out of the damper, hard to miss and easy to spot. I have all kinds of 360 mag stuff available.. Mark.

Going to Toledo @ mid-week, shagging a dolly up to pick up a '92 Cummins truck for the new owner. Will be going up empty w/a Dakota and dollying the Dakota back behind the '92. Will have room for about anything, engines, transmission, trim, etc. and can haul parts both ways. Can vary...

Idling the car in nuetral for the 30 miles will do the trick, the pump is active and circulating fluid and you have airflow to cool the radiator. Works with manual trannies, too. Tow dollies are like anything else, if you use them enough, make a few minor mistakes, you learn the inns and...

When was your car built? The first run of 1968 Hamtramck-Assembled 340 A bodies seem to come out with the '894 heads and no external 'X' markings. I personally have seen a total of 3 sets, all 1968s, without the external 'X'es on them. 1 other way an 'X' head can be identified is by the 2...
