I am looking to sell my 71 Dart. I got it from my neighbor in 2004 with a bill of sale because he couldnt locate the title. I planned to just turn it into a drag car so I didnt follow up on the title. I am focusing more on my 46 Mercury and just dont have time or interest for it. It has around...

Where would be a good place to start looking for the mounts? Should i use the 727 with the motor or try and find a different one?

Lol no im not sorry. Im looking to get rid of the motor and trans too. Im gonna see if i can get it to fire this weekend.

I understand that if i had a 440 it would be best but I dont. There is no way i could find a running 440 with under 50k miles for 100 bucks. This is a budget build so im just gonna make the best out of it and see what happens. All i was looking for was advice on what the best way to do things...

Like i said for 100 bucks i couldnt pass it up. I can probably get the car running and street legal for about 2 grand. Well, i hope anyway lol

Turbo charging them? Huh, didnt think of that. Guess i will try and sell it then. Thanks guys.

Well i wouldnt just give it away. Id be selling it for a couple hundred bucks. I hate to scrap it cause like you said, no one is making them. Its complete with everything. I think there is A/C on it too.

Whats undesirable about them? I picked it up for 100 bucks and it runs pretty smooth. Figured why not.

Im taking a 413 out of a late 60's motor home and swaping into my 71 dart. If i change the motor mounts for now will the k-member hold up to the additional eight and power? My goal for now is to just get it running. I know once its running and i try to make it go faster i will need to swap in...

I am going to go ahead and swap in my 413 into my 71 dart. It has its orginal slant 6 with about 65k miles on it. Is there a big enough demand to try and sell it or should i just pull it out and scrap it? Id rather sell it but not sure if its worth it.

yep. had to put in for a lost title.

I wouldnt mind building it into a weekend drag car. Not worried about paint or anything like that. i just want to build it to go fast at the strip. maybe start around 400-450hp engine. just something i can wrench on afterwork and on weekends.

I accuqired a 1971 Dodge Dart with 63,000 miles from my neighbor a few years ago. 225 slant six auto non-running. All i had to do was tow to my house and it was mine. He didnt want his wife getting it in the divorce! The body is in great shape with only a few small dents and minor rust along the...
