    2019 Ram oil concerns

    Relative works at a Chrysler dealership as the parts manager. There’s a reason they keep 10 pairs of heads and over 200 lifters and whatnot in stock on the shelves and keep having to order more. Definitely a quality/design flaw with the newer engines.

    Anyone running a Holley Sniper 2300 on their slant?

    What about the BBD Sniper offering from Holley? They are marketing it to the Jeep crowd.... There may be a issue with the linkage being a direct hookup. But would remove the need for an adapter plate or hogging out some ports.

    Did the factory use different pulley sizes for slant with AC?

    Best to find a F-Body "Aspen, Volare" with a slant 6 and snag its front accessory setup. Gives you a factory mounting for a Sanden. I've found the 70's Mercedes fan and clutch works perfect with the factory shroud.

    Any clutch fan options for 73 dart, /6?

    For the F-Body AC belt system I put into my 73 Duster. The Mercedes clutch and fan mod was the best option for my setup. Works with factory shroud and never runs hot...Pulls tons of air!

    Slant 6 most mpg's

    I'm running the v-belt setup from a 78 aspen with Sanden AC compressor. Only clutch and fan setup I could get to work with the shroud was the Mercedes Mod. Car runs great and cool even in summer traffic.

    omni paint question

    I personally wouldn't mix paint systems. I've seen what can go wrong. Do it right, stick to one line. That's not to say, people don't get good results with mixing systems. Sidenote, Matrix is a low cost low-med quality paint. The clears UV protection isn't that strong. If you do a google...
