Hey everyone,
I'm doing a V8 swap on a 1968 Dodge Dart and I have a few questions. Before I get into the questions, the car has been stripped, and had some minor restoration. During my swap I will be using a Dana 60 rear with 3.21 gears, a 727 trans, a v8 K frame, and manual steering.
Q: Does anyone know what headders will work best with the 68's? i've hears of issues with the stering clearance, but have not gotten that far yet.
Q: I'm switching to disc brakes in the front and drum in the rear. Does anyone know where I can get a diagram for the porportioning valve? Also, will a larger master cylender be needed?
Q: Does anyone have a good head, cam, intake setup for a 340? I've spent most of my time working on GM and Fords, and know enough to get by on Chrystler products (Don't Judge).
Q: The V8 K frame has crappy welds on it (i think all of them do, looking at the slant 6 frame), is beefing up those welds reccomended?
Q: Can anyone think of any issues I might run into, if I'm swaping out everything with V8 parts?
Any help would be great. I hate being the new guy, but everyone needs to learn sometime.. So I'll say sorry in advance, lol.
