    Addressing the Underside Visual Advice

    Interesting. My '72 Duster 340 looked like it was originally black underneath. Front inner fenders were the body's TB3 with the deadener on them. I couldn't tell on the back wheel wells but I assume they were TB3 covered by sound deadener also. Couldn't tell if it had the overspray or not but I...

    Chrysler's at Carlisle. Is there a class to show my car without judging?

    I finally got the ol' Duster to be roadworthy but it is in no way ready to be shown to judges. I thought they used to have a fun field class where you showed your car for fun only. I couldn't find that info at their site. I don't want to spend 55 bucks just to have it inside the gates for one...

    Dim Dash Lights

    you are spending way too much money on those. I still have the ones in my dash that I posted earlier. They are dimmable and work great!! I could barely see them before! I almost bought the blue ones only because my car is blue. I didn't remove any shields or modify the dash in any way. Just plug...

    Funny noise

    On the way to the cruise in, my car suddenly developed a noise in the tranny. Will not do it in park, will in neutral on idle. Rev, and it goes away. In gear, decelerate and it comes on. Sit in gear at light, it happens. Accelerate, and it goes away. Rebuilt transmission and new B&M torque...

    zero compression yes Zero lol !

    If you are going to run it, which I wouldn't do without some testing or tearing down, I would be easy on it for a while.

    rough Idea on compression ratio

    My goal here is to try to find a good set of pistons for my 340 that will put me into the 9 to 9.5:1 compression ratio. I am on a very tight budget here. (A bunch of unexpected life expenses came up all at once while I am trying to build this) My block is excellent but I need pistons and I can...

    rough Idea on compression ratio

    rough Idea on compression ratio

    I have a 1972 Duster 340 that is getting an engine rebuild. I was looking at some silvolite pistons for it. I copied this from the description Brand: Silvolite Pistons Part Number: 1267 Condition: New Silv-O-Lite Pistons for 1968-71 Chrysler 340 5.6L V8 Standard Size, matched set Flat Top...

    Harmonic Balancer questions

    Thank you all. It seems that I was wrong as I do have the correct damper. Somehow in my mind, I thought differently. He still had the weighted converter on the tranny though. The weights were pretty big. Hell of a deal on the harmonic balancer!!!! I might still get one!!

    Harmonic Balancer questions

    I just found out that my supposedly externally balanced 340 has a forged crank. My trans had the weighted torque converter for sure but now I am questioning what harmonic balancer the idiot before me, put on the car. My engine is at the machine shop right now and the balancer is not where I...
