    ROMAC Slant Six Balancer

    I would think yes since it looks like it's drilled for it, but I'll wait for an expert to confirm.

    Chrysler /6 performance book dutra

    I have a D100 with an A833OD and it's a great daily driver. I highly recommend it.

    Chrysler /6 performance book dutra

    Thanks for the tip. Just ordered mine. Didn't know this was a thing. Always glad to support Doug.

    Holley 390 Throttle cable bracket

    Yeah, the Lokar setup is what works great for me for my throttle and kickdown cable.

    Holley 390 Throttle cable bracket

    I switched to a cable system and I used this bracket. It works great, but you need a V8 style pedal.

    Flex-aLite fan for Slant 6?

    Yep. It's slightly more than 17 inches, so some folks call it a 17 and some call it an 18, but it's the same fan. They're pretty easy to find if you have a decent junk yard nearby. It's about the only fan besides the old four blade that fits my setup.

    Flex-aLite fan for Slant 6?

    The 7 blade ones for Volares with AC move a lot of air and are pretty thin. I tried Flex fans for my slant but they're too deep and hit the engine if you don't have at least the stock spacer in there.

    Radiator help needed!!

    Yeah, I had to send my Champion radiator back because I've got air and power steering and if I move the fan back it hits the power steering pump. I'm really annoyed at them because they claim their core is only 2" thick, which is the thickness of a 3 core radiator, but it is exactly 2.5" thick...

    You've heard it before ?

    If you aren't doing anything to the internals, the two barrel Holley is the way to go. If you're going for an electronic ignition, you should definitely do the HEI conversion.

    Oversize valves?

    If you decide to do something else besides the 1.70/1.44s I'd be interested in buying them.

    Enough rocker arm adjustment

    It depends on the block, but I had .100" shaved off the head and .005 shaved off the block to make sure it's flat and I still use stock pushrods without trouble.

    Supercharging a Slant 6

    Hot Rod Slant Six article

    Oh boy, someone made them an out of the box HEI conversion that has been popular among Slant guys for over 15 years and they put a bigger exhaust on it. Much wow. And why even bother with a dummy ballast resistor? That just seems like asking for another thing to go wrong.

    Any valve lash advice from the gurus?

    I enjoy doing it while the engine is running. Run it ten minutes then go to work. Much easier to get an accurate read and you save time and starter life not clunking the engine around twice for each cylinder. Throw a junk towel down the side to catch wayward oil, or cut a valve cover window if...

    Early a body fan clutch

    Where'd you get the fan from?

    Early a body fan clutch

    That's really cool! I had mine recored to a triple core and sadly, I can't get a clutch fan to fit to save my life. Glad it worked out for you.

    Got my new converter

    I've bought two converters from Andre at Edge as well and he's been fantastic to work with.

    TorqStorm® Slant 6 Supercharger Kit

    Okay, now that we've all fed the trolls, can we get back to talking about superchargers? This is probably a question for the "other forum" but I'd be very interested to see if anyone has made a supercharger and AC work for a narrow A. Probably way too specific a build since you'd likely not be...

    TorqStorm® Slant 6 Supercharger Kit

    That's what I was thinking. This uses almost the same mounting bolts as the compressor. It would be tricky, but it could be done. I was also thinking of maybe going to the dark side of the Slant and hiding it down low. My friend Ben did that with his 440 truck.

    TorqStorm® Slant 6 Supercharger Kit

    True. I'd forgotten about that. I'd have to get really creative there. I've seen a turbo 6 Barracuda with A/C but it was a '68 so they have a lot more room to work.

    TorqStorm® Slant 6 Supercharger Kit

    I figured if/when I do this I'd put a couple electric pusher fans up front.

    Starter

    Second on the mini starter. Your life will be much easier if you switch out to one of those. Just tell the parts jockey it's for a 91 Dodge 1500 with a 5.2L. Just about any Mopar mini starter from the V6s or V8s through the early 2000s will work, but that's an easy enough vehicle for faking the...

    Check out Charlie Schmid. He lives in Silver Springs and has forgotten more about Slants than we'll ever know. He's Charrlie_S on here.

    225 Max Performance Recipe?

    Slant Six mods can be rewarding, but you're never going to get the bang for your buck that you would with a V8. I only recommend Slant Six tuning if you really love the engine and want to do something that really stands out at shows. If you want to go fast, go with the 340. If you want to go...
