    318 wide block intake help

    Well first of all I am not nuts. I am simply asking about the centerline measurement and with some fab work if it might be possible because because of the symmetrical alignment. I am sure unless something is a simple bolt from Mancini some people think others are nuts. People sometimes also...

    318 wide block intake help

    A friend of mine is looking at a tri power set up using a 318 wide block intake manifold on an old 500 cu. motor he is building. He is doing some modifications but wanted to know if anyone could help with some measurements regarding this type of manifold. The question is the ports appear to be...

    Hard Cranking When Hot

    I had the same issue here in hot Florida. I have 10.5 compression. Wrap your starter well and get a strong good battery like Optima but something with quality power. It made a big difference for me. Good luck.

    72 Dodge Dart

    I wish you a belated welcome. I really like what you are doing and honestly there is a lot of expertise here. So if you have any questions or on what or how you are going to do it. Some one here has either done it or has helped someone else do it. It is good to bounce it on the wall here...

    is it just me?

    And when I see that I feel like I am at a new car dealership. Because there is usually a line of them and the only difference is the color of paint.

    Appreciation to Mopar373

    A few days ago I posted about how someone scratched all my windows of my Dart while I was at the park. I replaced them this weekend but I wanted to say I appreciate everyone's comments. I especially want to thank Mopar373 here in FL for the very generous offer to give me a windshield to...

    Venting Frustration

    That's a good idea. I was so mad I just took off. I will go the the local PD & ask about cameras in the area. Thanks.

    Venting Frustration

    Drove the Dart to the park, nice day why not? I come back to the car and someone (perhaps a girl wanting to see if her engagement ring was a real diamond) decided to put deep scratches on every piece of glass on the car except the vent windows. Each gouge was 8"-10" long. What in the heck is...

    So someone just did this to my car

    The same thing happened to my son's car. Idiots do this thinking it gives them power and that they can ruin anything someone has worked so hard for. I am truly sorry it happened to you.

    Torsion Bars Recommendations

    I am replacing my torsion bars and I am looking for some advice. I am going to use 1.03" diameter but what brand seems really good. I have been thinking of either PST or Hotchkis as I have read here many have done one or the other. Can someone tell me what they have done and are either...

    Argent Silver

    Just a simple question. I am very tired today I've had some long days this last week. Just a simple question. I am working on repainting some taillight lenses on both a '72 & '71 Dart. As I recall the only silver used on the car is argent silver (obviously I am working now on restoring the...
