    Ebay radiators

    Do you remember exactly which one? There seem to be many.

    Ebay radiators

    Won't fit mine, I have a 26" radiator.

    Ebay radiators

    In preparing my Duster to have body work done, the repair guy discovered that my radiator is leaking. :BangHead: It is original-looking (black 2-core), but clearly not original; I'm guessing it's a part-store replacement. There seem to be a large number of <$200 aluminum radiators available on...

    26" radiator in my 1974 360 dart sport, this came with the car. Should i be running a good 22" radiator?

    No-my 73 has a 22" opening (and 26" radiator) and was a 318/3-speed.

    PST steering box

    Looks like I'm going PST. The Lares is awful, and the FFI is out of my budget. Probably 20:1; I'm not sure 16:1 is a good idea with a small Tuff wheel and 17" tires.

    I wouldn't mess with it.

    Need some opinions on where to go from here...

    I'm with @middleagecrisis about the fuel pump. On the off chance you have the oil you drained out, I suggest sending a sample to Blackstone for analysis-that will tell you exactly what is in it. (Metals, gas, coolant.) www.blackstone-labs.com

    [WANTED] Late A body, left front rail

    Title pretty much covers it, looking for the LF chassis rail for a Duster. Closer to the northeast the better, because I'm sure shipping will be pricey.

    Air Gap hood clearance

    That's the one.

    Air Gap hood clearance

    That's good, because I'm pretty sure that I HAVE one of those.

    Budget Build 5.9 for a 71 Scamp

    I have no idea. I have headers and no heat stove.

    Budget Build 5.9 for a 71 Scamp

    Yes. Having DRIVEN my Duster in 40-degree temperatures with an electric-choke AVS, Air Gap intake, no heat riser, and an open scoop, just...don't worry about it. Pump it once, crank and fire. Mine being a 4-speed, I run it 1-2 minutes to stabilize the idle and go; drive gently until the temp...

    Budget Build 5.9 for a 71 Scamp

    Column shift may also be an issue. FWIW, Rock Auto has a full set of lifters for $112. They're Enginetech brand, PN L2167. I don't either, but from 25,000+ miles of driving it in a 4-speed car with 2.76(!) gears, my Hughes 1418 has LOTS of low end-rather than retyping the specs, here's the...
