I did not install the current pistons in the car. The previous owner did that when he did the .030 overbore, back in 1995. I am planning on getting new ones anyways.

Okay, so out with the stroker kit. I'll probably stay at around 6-8 lbs of boost TBH. I do have an 8 3/4 rear, but with 3.93 gears. New forged pistons with H-Beam rods is doable. I was looking into changing out the leaf springs for a spring system, is this what you're talking about when you say...

What other info do you need from me? I'll do my best to get the answer.

Thanks for the very detailed reply AJ. From what I was able to gather from this, I should either stroke it, or supercharge it, but not both? I'm more concerned with keeping it a streeter. The track would be cool to go to every now and then, but not entirely necessary. The reason I want a roots...

Hey Everyone, I should be having some money coming up to start the build I want to do for my 74 Duster. It currently has 1970 340 with a .030 overbore in her. I want to do a 416 stroker kit, EFI since carbs and I don't get along too well, and a roots supercharger. Now, I've never done extensive...

yes, the "S" Hook is in correctly. And i've tried youtube as well

So I currently have the pump arm in the middle hole for the accelerator pump. I disconnected the throttle cable and started it up. It still idles at about 3000 RPM. I try to set the choke using the fast idle linkage adjustment procedure in the manual, but once i bump the throttle to test that it...

Would doing that just eliminate/confirm the possibility of it being the throttle cable being too tight? If it eliminates it, should I then move the pump connector rod to the original hole it was in?

I agree that it's a big jump, but I was going by the rebuild manual. Tbh, I'm fairly new to carbs and what not. Like I said, hopefully relocating the arm will fix it.

I never took that plug out during the rebuild. So it's still connected.

I was thinking it might be that, but I wanted to check with you guys. I will look into putting it back to where it was after work. The only reason I changed it's location is because on the instructions in the rebuild kit, it had each hole labeled based on the model number of the carb. So I put...

Hey everyone, So I recently rebuilt my carburetor. I cleaned it out and changed out gaskets. I adjusted the floats as per the Edelbrock Manual (it's a 1407 manual choke btw) and changed out the accelerator pump. Other than those two changes and new fuel filters, everything else is the same. I...

Hey everyone. Just another person asking about a transmission swap. There might already be a forum out there for my question(s), but I couldn't find it and figured I'd ask all of you here. So, obviously, I want swap from auto to manual. I currently have a 74 Duster, with a 70 340 and the OG 727...

I would love to go that in depth with my project, but I don't have a garage as of right now to park the Duster in order to take everything out of it. However, it is in my plan to do so. I will keep this mind tho when I cross that road.

Sweet, I will look into this. Would I basically cut out the old and weld this straight onto the door jamb?
