I have a 408 stroker backed with a 727 that is making some noise. Noise is very faint at idle in park. When put in gear at idle with the parking brake or brakes on it is the loudest. Oil pressure cold is 60 at idle and 15-20 hot at idle. Cruising is around 40-45psi. After I drive for awhile make...

I am doing some bodywork on the rear of my dart and wondering if anyone has a pic of the rear of a 74-76 Swinger with the taillights and middle panel removed. Kiddo did a little remodeling after pulling it from park in the driveway and things aren’t quite lining up yet.

Makes me feel a bit better with these responses. Thanks

Last year I had a shop build me a 727. After having them address issues with the car losing gears on the first drive they said it was losing pressure due to a cracked case. They said they replaced the case and dyno ran it. I’ve put apprx 50 miles on since with no issues due to it getting pulled...

Sorry for late response, so you have two a230's? I wouldn't need the linkage. Whats the price for both with shipping

80651

How much for it plus shipping, any more info on it.

looking for a couple A230 3 speed manual trannys for my 74 dart. In or near Colorado preferred

How would I go about finding the underlying issue?

Sorry I was meaning the difference in opinions during online research.

Appreciate the feedback. Going through other forums it makes it seem that 10-12 hot idle isn't that concerning and that 45-50 wot would be ok. Just wondering why both opinions

need some advice. Was getting my 408 tuned a month ago and spun a rod bearing. Builder/ machine shop blamed it on high volume pump sucking stock pan dry. Motor was put back together With stock pump, had less than 5psi hot idle so builder added a shim and went to 15w40. Hot idle is now 10-12 cold...

I'll see if I can get the cam specs. Right now she feels pretty wrapped out at 6k. Dropped her off to get tuned tonight I will report back tomorrow hopefully. It is stock suspension right now

3400 pounds should be a safe bet ( haven't weight it yet ) elevation is 5800'

Trying to get into the 11s with my 74 dart. Build list is below. Had it on the dyno without spray last month having carb issues ( ran super rich on top end not responding to jet changes ) and it only put 350 to the wheel, few pulls later it spun a rod bearing. Engine is back together and I'm...
