I have a dilemma and need your help. How many leafs did a stock 318 or 340 Duster have? My 1970 Duster have 5 leafs, it was originally a slant 6 car and now has a 273. I cant pass inspection here in Sweden with 5 leafs, they say it should be 6 leafs. We're they even ever sold with that?

Could anyone point me to some literature that I can show to them to prove this?
 
If you need the actual document, go to this link:

MyMopar - Mopar Forums & Information - Service Manuals

You can download the service manual for free.


In the Dodge section go to the

1970 Dodge Challenger & Dart Service Manual

and go to page 17-6 (Section 17, Page 6), Here I circled the specs in red:

You can also find it in the 1970 Plymouth service manual in section 17, page 6 under the Valiant column. Valiant, Duster, Dart, & Demon are all the same frame and suspension components and specifications....
