Hello
I am working on a 66 Dart GT, it has a tired 273 2bbl in it. When I am done with the body, I plan on installing a different motor.
Here is my question.... What kind of crank is in an original, unmolested 69 318 2bbl, that has 89000 original miles on it,,,,,? I thought I remember reading somewhere that all the small blocks up to a certain year had forged cranks, is this so,,,,??
I was thinking of rebuilding the 318 for a nice street motor. If not I have a couple 340 blocks around also. The 318 is the original motor from my 69 B-Cuda, that I'm the 3rd owner of. A built up 340 street motor resides in it now. I also have a few cranks around here some place, but can't remember what they are as far as cast, or forged.
Thanks alot you guys. I love this place.
