Just talked to local machine shop, rough estimate is 1500 in labor including head work. Assuming everything checks out.

I'm still learning the proper lingo in all of this but when I take my stock heads to the machine shop, what exactly am I wanting done in order to "open valves to 2.02" and "bowl work"?

Thanks for all your advice. There is no set budget just like there is no set time limit. Should I take the machine shop a bare block and tell them to go over it or??? Can head work be done to open the valves to 2.02, without buying new heads or is the cost about the same? Not concerned about...

I have a 73 Duster 340. Just pulled the motor/727 trans out Saturday. Budget plays a big part in any of this as most of you know. I "think" I want mid 400hp on 93 Octane in a streetable setup. I don't like throwing numbers out there because I don't have a lot of experience. Brand new to muscle...

Gonna order 3 more, if the bolt doesn't work for two of them, that access hole will be plan B. Thanks for the tip.

Any tips? I tried c-clamp and socket, I tried bolt with washers. No room to tap it in. Last option is pulling the tranny which I reallllllly don't want to do.

I replaced my shift shaft seal. Was a pain getting it in. The metal casing got a little deformed. My question is will it be ok. Or should I try again with a new one? Here is a picture for reference. Let me know thanks!

This is very true. I see them on jegs and summit for 1k -1200

Car shifts great. Motor is completely original with 100k miles. It just leaks. And I'm a bit OCD with leaks.

So I figured since I was going to pull it anyway for the front pump seal that I might as well rebuild it. Bought a TCI super pro rebuild kit. No lift, was just going to use jack and stands. Just got a quote for 1000 bucks to rebuild the tranny and that includes removal/install and towing. Does...

Cleaner pics

Bought 3 weeks ago, drove it twice around town. Never seen a speed bump or pothole with me. Was told at time of purchase it was front pump seal leak. Pan it self is saturated while everything else is sludge....

Take a look at these pics. Looks to me like a cracked bell housing. Hacked dust cover. And wrong pan gasket??

What are some areas on the body I need to look for as far as rust? I'm a welder by trade but never done body work.

Thanks bud that's all I needed to know. What do you think it's actually worth?

Ok fair enough. In your expert opinion, I'd like a 12 sec street car. Can that motor produce that without forced induction or nitrous? What would it take to get it there?

Hi everyone I'm Tmac. I'm new to mopar or basically hot rodding in general. I'm looking to purchase my first project/weekender car. For reasons unknown I've fell in love with early 70s darts. Other car guys I know think I'm crazy and that I should stick with Novas and Chevelles. Anyway I found...
