Not mopar. But it pulls well...

One thing to check would be the accelorator pump in the carborator somtimes the rubber goes bad, now more frequently with the ethonal in the fuel. TF

Every thing except the cam is bolt on. And no no "KIT" exists. Anything can be done to a stock engine, just what do you want to do??? Street, Strip, or just a wasted parking space... Not much aftermarket for the slants. It is not simple to build a very fast slant car. Bolt on intake and...

There is also another ajustment bolt on the bottom of the distibutor that will give you more adjustment if that is still not enuff jump one tooth. TF

Im just using the felpro thats comes with the gasket kit. The pistons I bought off a fellow slantsix racer who found them when he bought a bunch of stuff off an old racer, they were made in the late sixtys or early seventys. They brought my pistons hieght from .186 down to .056 down so...
