    73 Dart Sport Color - Sassy Grass Green or Toxic Orange

    I think the orange actually looks really pretty on Dusters. Mine is Hugger orange and it looks very nice. Just my 2 cents

    dip stick tube removal ?

    I've ran into this issue several times in the past. I've tried a few different removal options, the only one I had very much success with was to carefully insert an EZ-Out aka screw extractor, lightly tap it with a hammer to get it seated and clamp a pair of vise grips on the hex end. spray the...

    Captainkirk's Duster project

    It really was that long ago, but it still seems vivid in my memories. I'm very glad that I was able to get to know my grandpa and am very blessed to have spent as much time with as I did. It still wasn't enough time, but I thank god for the time we had. Rest in peace grandpa Christoopher

    Ignition tumbler

    You have to rotate the new lock cylinder in it's own housing while moving that actuator tang. That should free the tang up to slide the new assembly back in to the column. As for the wires, those are for the keys in the ignition buzzer.

    Magnum head conversion on an LA engine

    Hey guys, I've been searching on here but can't seem to find any info on converting my 74' 318 heads to Magnum heads. I do know the basics of the swap but wondered if any of you warriors have actually done it, or have any good detailed info regarding this swap. Any input would be so greatly...

    brake line opinion

    To put my 2 cents in on your question, yes I sure would go ahead and replace them. They may look to be in decent shape from the outside, but how do they look inside? That's one of those questions that you never quite know. They very well may be ok inside but that rust, slime and scale you found...

    [SOLD] Carter TQ thermoquad Carb Carburetor 9371 S

    Hey is this carb still for sale? My Dad told me about it and I'm interested. Is it electric choke? I have been considering a TQ for my 318 Duster, and have heard great reviews on the TQ. I've never bought anything on here, how do the postal money orders work? Let me know if it's still for sale...

    Captainkirk's Duster project

    Lol, yep we're related for sure. That's about the same route I would have ended up going, though I might have tried Magna Fluxing it first. I know the "Oh ****" feeling very well. Hope the rest come out the same.

    76 dart 318 header suggestions

    Hey dude, just figured I'd chime in here. I've heard many positive and negatives on any header conversions/swaps. I have a 74' 318 Duster and have a set of Hooker competition headers on it. They fit extremely well, no interference, no denting tubes to clear stuff etc. If they might be in your...
