I have a 65 Dart in Ct and it's likely your brakes saw the same type salty winters in NYC/NY that promotes rapid rusting. Selecting a master cylinder that bolts directly in starts by looking at your tire size. If you see a 13 inch tire then it's likely you have 9 inch brake drums and the master...

I could use a kit with similar parts, Since I am converting a slant six from rod throttle to cable throttle I will need to get a different cable because of a length difference.

I think you'll be at 2000 rpm at 65mph with the 3.23 & OD based on my 65 Dart which has a 2.94 & has 2000 rpm at 70mph. It's noticeably quieter with the lower revs than a non OD. If you put HEI in & dial up higher initial timing, electric fan, tall radials, enlarge the exhaust to 2 1/4, & set...

The restrictor in that picture was being installed 4 years ago in my 65 Dart and also in my daughter's 65 Dart. The restrictor has been used for a little over 20,000 miles and continues to stay in position. Fuel is dispensed from all the nozzles of different gas stations during that time in a...

Agree..... you had better know your filler pipe well before adding a flapper valve. The stock 65 Dart filler tube has a horizontal baffle splitting the filler tube into two halves with gas flowing down the lower half & venting occuring in the upper half. As the baffle nears the end of the...

Sorry about your credit card.....didn't happen to me....& I bought twice at different times for different cars using a credit card. Although the discussion has been about filling up without spilling my problem was also spilling out the vent tube during sharp turns....so noticeable that a...

See attachment for a method to install in a 65 Dart or similiar....note gas filler tube diameter.

see the following location for a full summary of the available wheels & which models featured the 14 x 5.5 wide rims that are needed for the Scarebird installation: www.moparts.org/Tech/Archive/wheels/1.html Yes the 14 inch ralleyes are 5.5 wide & explain why those who used the ralleyes didn't...

Tested the NAPA 60-1699, as modified, for 3 fun filled winters in New England thru ice, salt, snow, & rain plus summer sun baking including 70 travel miles a day and continuous outdoor parking to suggest they are "functional"....Now if I could only get the windshield washers to work as well...

See attached annotated diagram for installing a new Napa 60-1699 refill in a 65 Dart in the original Dart holder which retains the original look......maybe it works for a 61?

You'll need the OD. bellhousing with the OD since the OD bellhousing has the bigger opening to fit the OD. It's practically a bolt in. I've done two conversions & seen 30 mpg on occassion in hilly N.E. 833 OD came in alum & cast iron versions in model years from 75 to 87 for various cars &...

Note the scarebird option requires 14 x 5.5 wheels.....14 x 4.5 wheels rub on the calipers.

View your wheel, tire & hubcap from different angles....it may influence your decision. Angle views usually point out that extra stripes, words, etc. cause complexity of the view as everything starts to blend together. Solid black tire, solid wheel color, and solid hubcap color are busy...

Note the shoulder belt locking control was seperate in it's own module up to around 2000 & then slid into one of the functions of the main computer after that.....you'll need the parts of the two harnesses if pulling one of these modules. A recent Ebay item for the seat belt control module...
