Just to be sure that you know - using that factory non-AC water pump pulley will realign your belt grooves for the system that is shown in post #18 - the water pump and alternator on the crank groove toward the engine and the Power steering on a belt of its own in the crank groove toward the...

Look at the mount shape in post#7 (which is correct) compared to the picture of yours. I agree that there is something hinky (that's a technical term...) about yours compared to the NOS mounts that I have on the shelf.

factory Non-AC pulley arrangement 1970 Alternator, water pump on the crank groove closest to the engine PS on it's own belt in front crank groove I can provide measurements of pulley depth and height if you want since I have a back-up set of these pulleys...

Can't you buy roller lifter retro fit kits made for earlier LA engines???

3.21 gears... 8 1/4 rear end?

The fact that it has dual exhaust will boost what you get from the swap. The engine is an air pump. If the exhaust is restricted (stock single exhaust) the higher the rpms, the more it make a difference. The intake and exhaust work together for the best gain from each. I would bet 20hp at...

Oh, just never heard that term used

What the heck is an "offset clutch fan"???

Does the motor sound faintly (there's the headers) like a sewing machine??? Yes, get the oiling holes in the right place!

MP dipsticks come as a matched set with tube and stick. OP is absolutely correct that the distance out of the block is the operative question as the level of oil below the crank is the issue. But with unknown parts sources it is possible to have a mismatched tube and stick, and yes tube length...

OOPS, yes 800 AVS2... Since the secondaries open on demand it wouldn't be too much.

750 AVS2... 650 too small

send a pm to Halifaxhops here on FABO - he's right there in PA. He does a great job of checking out, repairing (if needed) and recurving your distributor. Wait until you figure out what all you want to do and send him the details on the engine, gears, etc and how you want to use the car and he...

That carb and intake has been a great set up for my street driven Dart Would suggest this factory kickdown set up

throttle stud between the two halves of the U shaped throttle end

first thing I would do is put a dual plane 4bbl intake on it. With dual exhaust and 360 heads, that motor is just begging for it and the results will be significant.

I am curious, how did you get the intake ports on the LD4B to seal on the taller 340 ports? I have a couple LD4Bs and it seems there really isn't enough meat above the runner port to effect a good seal on a 340 Port. Have you run this engine yet???

problem is all my used cam bearings are in used blocks! I agree with Jpar, worth it not to have one buggered on removal and throwing you off

Remember you only need one buyer... Don't sell it cheap if you're going to be kicking yourself every time you think about it down the road How long have you already held onto this stuff? An ideal buyer would be someone restoring a race car to as raced condition from the era when W-5 stuff was...

The parts that you offer are very specialized and probably worth what you ask or more to the right buyer. Most folks here are working on cars that they drive, or a restored car that they show, for even occasional racers this is more than they need. You might look at advertising on a more racer...

70-71 air cleaners are pricey, but not that pricey. I saw 3 or 4 at Carlisle last year for $4-500 depending on how much work was needed. The key to looking good (IMHO) is a nice new pie tin on top, even if the air cleaner isn't exactly the right year. This one is on my 1970 Dart GT, and the...

WOOHOO!!!

ten years is a long time, lots of hot and cold cycles to form condensation in the block, even taped up for that long doesn't mean no air coming in and out.

fingers crossed!!!

run a tap into the head to make sure the threads are really clean

I got heads for a 318 from Aerohead - a division of Indy, that came complete with 360 (1.88 valves in new seats) for very good price a few years ago. These were rebuilt factory 318 iron heads.

How old do you think some of those kids are?

Call Smith Brothers in Oregon. Tell them what you have, ask their advice and get them to make a set of push rods that are just where you want them (where they say they should be). It doesn't take them long. I just got a set for my 340, took less than 2 weeks, price wasn't bad and I know I...

my 3 Darts:

be careful, many 318 polys had an 8 bolt crank - not hard to resolve, just use a Hemi flex plate...
