    How can i know fore sure if head has been milled

    Greetings, I am toying around with the idea of pulling the head off my engine to fix some broken intake studs and while it's down ill probably put a timing chain in, go ahead and drop the electronic ignition and hei setup in, and give the engine a good once over to make sure it stays...

    Hurricane intake

    So is the Hurricane intake worth the price of admission? I'm looking at the 2bbl version, and it looks like it accepts the Holley 2300 series carb. I bought one of the 350cfm's from Summit last year and I figure this would be a nice addition along with a pair of Dutra Manifolds.

    What RPM's are you running at 60mph?

    Greetings, I took the Dart for a spin today to challenge the speedometer with the GPS. As I was driving down the road at 58-63mph, my engine RPM stayed in the neighborhood of 2300-2500. Is that on par with your guy's experience? I have an automatic and unknown rear gear.

    Engine Serial

    I have a '66 Dart GT. Presumably, this is the original 225 /6 engine. About 25 years ago, my grandfather had the engine "rebuilt" by some sleezeball shadetree mechanic who did not do a very good job. My (great) Uncle says the engine rattled like hell, leaked oil, smoked, and didn't have enough...

    Carburetor loses prime after 8+ hours

    Hey, After my car sits for more than 8 hours, i have been having to spray brakekleen in the carb to get it to start. If I work an 8 hour day, it generally starts up when i get off. Sometimes it needs to be primed. When i work a 12 hour day, it wont start. Once running, it runs perfect...

    Rochester carb?

    Does anyone happen to know off the top of their head if a rochester carburetor from a 70's chevy has the same mounting pattern as the slant 6 2bbl?? I bought a 2bbl intake recently from Waggs, and it came with a carb that was good on last use. Well speaking to a guy I work with the other...

    Cam Question

    Well i was just asking about a timing issue in a previous thread, and i typically go by the thought process that anything worth doing..... is worth overdoing:) With that said, if i wind up tearing into my slant 6 which im presuming is a 225 to go after a timing issue, i might as well shell out...

    Timing question

    I drove my 66 dart the other day and like a typical slant six, it ran like a champ even after sitting for quite some time. My only complaint is that the car has like ......... no damned power at all. its annoyingly weak. When i was 16, i owned a 65 dodge dart and rebuilt the 225 that was in it...
