I will definitely have to look up the video. I have very little experience working on cars, and my Dart is my first car purchase. I am trying to do as much of the work restoring it myself as possible, so I really appreciate the shared knowledge

I am hoping the cam is still good, I have not had free time to pull the 318 yet as school has taken all my time, so the lifters are still in order. Otherwise the short block has a new Melling .458 lift. That’s all I know about that cam, so I would like to use the Purple Shaft for sure. The...
