Let's get this slant turbo project started. 71 Dart
Happy Holidays Mopar Guys and Gals.
12/24/14 working tonight, family tomorrow and maybe if the weathers good on the weekend I can play with my MSD setup.
Would like to bypass the Ballast resistor since it seems to be the weak link in the ignition system. I really don't want to drive this thing in the rain right now but would be nice to make the ignition more reliable.
Serj22 that is a good price on the box of Holley jets that Bill posted. I picked up one a few months back as I rarely get off my *** to work on the car, I don't want to have to run to the part store while working on it. Too easily distracted apparently : )
Any suggestions on fuel line and fittings? Serj22 I had never heard of push lock (SP) until I saw you post on it. I will be probably be adding the walbro pump and Aeromotive regulator want to plumb the lines so it is safe, and can pass tech if I want to take it to the track.
Be safe when you drive guys!

Bill posted on the Push-Loc. I have not used it, just the similar tubing for boat applications - on boats. I don't know if a full push-loc setup would pass tech, everything I read near me dictates that hard line must be used, and no rubber - unless it's less than a foot long, and braided is ok. I don't remember what it said about push-loc but it could be just fine for the entire run.
I just didn't like the idea of leaving something cuttable running under the car. Sabotage just comes to mind. Especially in your area where you are having issues just keeping tires on the car. It only takes someone a little smarter to realize they can cut the fuel line and your whole tank will drain into the street which is so much "cooler" than just slashing the tires. Maybe that's a silly thought, but it is something I think about - it only takes one jerk. So hard line is what I used, and braided where it needed to connect to stuff.
I actually found a better deal on jets that range from 50-70 and is only $20, which is all I'll be using anyway.
As for fittings, buy them all in bulk, otherwise you'll be paying about $10/each for one piece, especially if you're going the A/N route which becomes annoying if you're missing a part and have to make due with what the hardware store has - which is flare, or npt, and neither of them mate up well, but if you do wind up doing AN and need a quick fix conversion, AN is written in 16ths, so a 4 is 4/16 (1/4) and a 10 is 10/16ths (5/8ths) etc etc...
