    Engine reseal suggestions (possibly cam too)

    Yep, replace the head gasket while it's out, even if you don't spring for the head milling a new gasket is good peace of mind. Just remember if you go with an .040 composition gasket it will lower compression from the stock .020 steel shim gasket. Also make sure your breather and pcv/hose are...

    Still haven't figured out the idle issue...

    Check out how much transfer slot is exposed, it worked for me anyway on my small block.

    got new toy, feather duster!

    Hi, to the best of my knowledge, all 73 and up Disk brake cars got BBP wheels. That means some 7-1/4 axles got BBP lugs. All drum brake cars had small pattern. You can use the driveshaft from an 8-1/4 donor car as long as it has the same wheelbase as your Duster (108"). Scamps and Darts had...

    Is the engine running a carb? Anyone tried fuel injection yet?

    You are able to do that consistently without breaking stuff? Insane but impressive.

    Here is an article on an attempt to make a slant six car quick: http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Track/2525/sanctum.html Note the extensive parts list including a 3:91 geared rear end to run a blistering sub 17 second quarter mile.

    225 /6's created equal?

    Stock 225 Hyperpaks made 196hp with high compression pistons, 4bbl carb and headers. I don't think the head was any different than a 170. A stock 225 from that era was rated at 115? 70% increase in power minimal effect with a 170 head? I wish I could get a 70% increase on my 360 with stock...

    225 /6's created equal?

    Pretty sure my old mopar performance manual says that all heads from a performance standpoint are the same. So basically any slant six head is a "good one". Did not even know they did away with the spark plug tubes on later castings, mine had them and they always leaked too. I think the...

    whats a /6 worth

    I took my all original been in the family since it was less than 1 yr old 1973 Goldduster and 360'd it ten years ago. NO REGRETS!!!!! Still had to give away the low mileage perfect running condition six to get rid of it.

    whats a /6 worth

    It took me 6 months to find somebody to take mine for free but that was ten years ago. My local recycler pays $.04/lb for scrap iron so if your slanting six weighs in at around 500lbs that would be about $20.00. A good slant six trans should be worth $75.00.
