    1970 Dodge Dart Swinger 340

    To the guys who posted above me, THANK YOU, Manderson I'll have to pass at that price, besides the car is no longer for sale. Some people just don't understand what it takes to get a car in this shape, I got 6 grand in the motor. I've only made 5 passes on an 1/8th mile track, it will get...

    1970 Dodge Dart Swinger 340

    Well I really don't like other peoples attitude who come on herer and say I'm smoking crack, they can KMA, no I'm not hurting to sell it either so it really doesn't matter, and yes that is 1/8th mile times, in middle TN thats all we have, so I take it I missed the boat. Well I'll go back to...

    1970 Dodge Dart Swinger 340

    Think its funny there huh, well lets see you put yours back to look like this one bud, I've got a wall full of 1st and 2nd place show trophys for it, a motor that runs 7.40's on pump gas, driveable any where. I also know that if your car looks like this one you should have spent quite a bit of...

    I'm building a 396" stroker

    That racer brown cam is an STX-21 .560" lift-.560" lift on both sides of the ball. I have decided to put my M-1 intake back on it, instead of using the airgap. My M-1 has had a Jean Dittmer super turtle installed in the floor with a spacer that blends it together. Helps with the airflow they said.

    Passon Performance

    I was thinking about using the Passons tranny kit that makes it like a pro-shifted tranny, except it retains the syncros, anyone had any experience with this kit? What are your thoughts? Likes? Dislikes? Let me know.

    I'm building a 396" stroker

    Yeah a 390" cid would be a stock bore 340 mine is .040" overbore or 396". .030" would make a 394" if I'm right on my math. I guess a 392" would be .020 correct me if I'm wrong here. My x-heads are 66 cc chambers they have all been equalized, but still nothing as small a chamber like on a W-2...

    A-body 18 spline 4 speed

    I bought a aluminum cased Liberty tranny off a guy who bought it new and said he paid 1400.00 new for it, its pro-shifted and a REAL PITA on the street. The best thing to do is get that Passion performance kit that does the same thing but retains your syncros for easy driving, ya have the best...

    I'm building a 396" stroker

    Hmmm, looks like I will be half and half then on the race fuel huh? You all are saying that if I want to run this particular cam then I will have to run race fuel in the car for it to run right and not detonate. Not because its the wrong size period right? Is this a good cam for all out...

    I'm building a 396" stroker

    Well I'm staying with the TTI's I've already ordered them and I'm tired of battling those D$%N hookers. Sorry. Yes this is a street and show car, but I'm not at all afraid to take it to the track and let it rip. I think the 1 5/8 to 1 3/4 will be ok for power, I have 2 1/2" exhaust, with 2...

    I'm building a 396" stroker

    I originally had Hooker 1 3/4 Super Comps on this car and HATE!!! how much of a PITA they are to take on and off, thats the reason I wanted to go with the TTI's step header, think these are going to hurt the performance of this motor? Who's headers would anyone recommend and how well do they fit?

    I'm building a 396" stroker

    Tranny is a A833 4-speed, standard a-body gearing internally for a '70 dart, I got it from Brewers Performance, has McCleod street twin disc, Inline V-gate hurts shifter, 4.10 rear with spool. I wouldn't mind doing 1.6 roller rockers, just right now my budget wont let me, but maybe later. Would...

    I'm building a 396" stroker

    My 340 blew Sat. nite coming back from a local cruise in while I was racing a buddy of mine in a mustang. I had this crank I had bought years back. I was wondering what a stroker combo like this might be worth powerwise. Heres the details: 340 bored .040 over, 3.79 stroke mopar forged crank...
