    67 Dart back up lamp operating lever

    My plastic operating lever in the steering column broke loose and fell into the steering column tube. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement? Sure appreciate any help. Thanks Dave

    67 Dart-upgraded alternator

    I was doing a little reading about alternators in this forum. When I restored my 67 Dart I upgraded my wireing harnesses with new wire if needed. When I installed my electronic ignition system, I also upgraded my alternator to 78 amps-I purchased one for a 85 Dodge Pickup D100. It fit with out...

    Small block mini starter

    In 2005 I put in a mini starter from Advance Auto Parts in My 67 273 Dart. I purchsed a starter for a 1992 Dodge Dakota 318 ci. Have had no problems. It fit right in. Dave

    67 Dar 273 Intake manifold watr leak

    I used rtv on the ends. The guy said that if it became necessary he would replace the heads. Sometimes the simplest things can stop a train. After I installed the intake I put he carb on the, first the gasket and then the 1/6" plate. What I failed to do was put another gasket on between...

    67 Dar 273 Intake manifold watr leak

    RedFish, I think that you are correct about the calculations being are flawed. I will take your suggestion. I just don't want to take everything apart again. I am going to request that the guy get me new heads. If need be I might retain an attorney. My wife pays $7 a month for attorney...

    67 Dar 273 Intake manifold watr leak

    The heads were originally milled .050. I never had the 340 Intake milled. The new intake was milled .080 sides, .090 ends. I used the Edelbrock composit intake gasket (.060) the second time I installed the Edelbrock intake. I am still getting a leak on the right side. I used carb cleaner and...

    67 Dar 273 Intake manifold watr leak

    My third time-still a leaking problem on the sides, even with the composit gasket and rtv. I have tightned and re-tightned. I need to talk to the guy that did the machining and see what his other solutions may be. I guess the only logical thing to do is put on other heads. It's trying to...

    67 Dar 273 Intake manifold watr leak

    Another problem I have run into is-trying to torque 3 bolts. I have ft lbs and inch lbs. The 3/8x3/8 socket fits but there is no room for a flex extension or the wrench. I am using edelbrock bolts, 3/8 12 point. The first time I used a 3/8 wrench and guestimated 25 ft lbs and gave it an extra...
