    I need a windshield but I am sure that would be a small fortune to ship.

    Backfiring out carb and wont run right

    Ok a quick update. Thanks again to all who have posted some ideas. I didn't get a chance to mess with it as much as I would have liked to but I did a little. I got a fuel pressure gauge and I am running 6-8lbs. So that takes care of that. Like I said earlier, if you slowly move the...

    Does a Dart windshield fit a Valiant?

    I have a 67 Valiant 2 door hardtop signet. I contacted safelite and they cant get a windshield for the valiant but I checked the website, and they have one for a 67 Dart 2 door hardtop. Will it fit? How about the seal? Thanks!

    Backfiring out carb and wont run right

    Thank you all for the input. I have a lot of things to try and solve this problem. Unfortunately, I have to go to work, in LA, for 5 days and I will be back this weekend. I am hoping to fix it then so I can move onto body and paint.

    Backfiring out carb and wont run right

    Unfortunately no. I thought about that so we can eliminate something. Stock non-adjustable. Changed the fuel pump and the problem persists. Ok time to come clean. I have a basic working knowledge of the mechanicals of a motor but this is by far the most I have done, meaning my first...

    Backfiring out carb and wont run right

    That was my first thought when I saw it spit un-burnt fuel out of the carb. My neighbor, who has more experience than I do, said it was too lean.

    Backfiring out carb and wont run right

    Another question for the experts. Fresh rebuild on a 360 with a refurbished Edelbrock 1407 750cfm carb from national carburetors. With a cold start, the engine will start rather quickly and then sputter out. Restart and pump gas pedal to keep it running and it will spit fuel out the top of...

    1967 Valiant Signet Build

    Rain in Bristol got me back outside. Before I knew it, I had the shifter cable hooked up, the drive shaft in, and tranny mount on. The car can move! I am pretty happy because I didn't know if the transmission was any good. I just pulled it out of the shop, and then back in. I did find out...

    As I thought it would, hearing the motor run really motivated me. To keep the engine cool, I needed a radiator. I posted a question in the small black tech area, of which aftermarket radiator would work. Some of the guys there turned me onto challengergary who is a champion radiator dealer...

    Which aftermarket radiator for Valiant?

    I ordered the radiator yesterday, and got it today. Now that's fast shipping! The radiator will fit after I make the holes a little larger. All the welds on it look good except for the bracket to the core. They don't look horrible, just now perfect. No big deal. Everything else looks good...

    Which aftermarket radiator for Valiant?

    I ordered the 526 which is supposed to fit a-bodies. Which one did you order? Next I need to find a replacement windshield at a decent price.
