Been so long since I started this thread the Dart is covered with dust. Really not very happy with what we had going. The 8 3/4 stock A body rear was a little wide for tire fit and I wasn't really interested in drilling the axles to the bbp, and I converted to bbp discs on the front. So called...

Pm sent..

Got ours on the ground for the first time w 255s.

Holding itself up for the first time with a big block, disc brakes are on as well as a 750 double pumper.

255/60r15 Mickey Thompson 8" 8 hole weld knock offs from jegs 4.5" backspacing. Factory hd springs. 5 on left 7 on right.

We are running a TF 4.25 stroke w mopar journals with a 3/8 pickup in a engine yet. Ground off the boss and bent the pickup to clear. That engine has both mopar 2.375 journals and bulky Ly rods, neither helped clearancing. Back at that time in the early 90s we didn't really have any option we...

I don't know what you have already for parts but there is less grinding to install a stroker with chevy journals. Imo the cam is very small. The narrow lsa of 106 will move the torque lower and the stroke will move your torque down as well. It will be a stump puller for sure but your...

After we beat the tunnel up behind the body seam for the needed clearance to get the drivers manifold above the power steering fitting we had enough room for mid 70s era spool mounts. Not the prettiest welds and we need to find the proper Motor mounts washers...but both sides are done and it was...

didn't move it at all. The manifold actually comes down on the front edge of the bump that's there for the control arm. Cutting the fenderwell sheetmetal helped.. it did gain some room. Once its open up you can see the control arm mount and then you can see where you can gain a little more...

picture is passenger rear control arm. We tried a passenger log style manifold and it had no more room then the pass hp manifold. So I trimmed the fenderwell out on the passenger fender right where the bulge is for the back control arm. I heated up the control arm mount on the front side and...

We are in the throws of doing the early A w a 383 conversion as well. I think we are going to make the motor mounts. I likely will draw them out and cut them out with our plasma table. We are capable of mass producing them if they fit good. Currently doing b body hp manifolds. But are...

Thanks, I have seen those, and its not a bad idea. 1/2" should be all we need to clear. We do have room on the outside to move it out 1/2". Now you have me thinking if we moved the spring in... maybe a 275 would fit. Lol

Tackling a lot of early a body upgrades with this little car!... Front discs and spindle upgrade, added power steering, changing to 5x 4 1/2 wheels, installing a 8 3/4, have a posi carrier coming for a 741 set of 3.55s we had laying around. Planning on drilling out the rear axle. The wheels...

Should be room for a shield. Going to be a lot of heat nearby though. Master cylinder is perhaps 2 inches away from manifold... I thought I had a better picture. Took the master cylinder off and then the engine can go in with both manifolds on. The master cylinder is right above the manifold...
