1973 Dodge Dart 4-Door Custom Sedan Rebuild
Shawn........thank you for your return reply on my interest in your Dart build post. Yes that’s right your eyes don’t deceive you. The engine is a ‘77 Slant6 I purchased from my local Dodge dealership. In 1998 I went down to them and ordered a Slant6 that had never been in a car. They found one in a mid-west warehouse destined for a military vehicle on a military base. Cost me $900. for a long block and it is a Super Six set-up w/ Carter 2bbl BBD from a 318. Mopar elect. ign. w/ orange box, Accel hi-output coil, Hooker 2 into 1 headers w/ 2 1/4” SS real dual exhaust w/ “H” pipe, dual glass pack mufflers then to the back w/ brite tips. Open element 14x3 air cleaner w/ K&N filter. Paint and a lot of chrome and polished alum. for a pretty engine. 904 automatic and 8 3/4 742 drop out w/ 3.23 gear set. 11x2 1/2” brakes. 11x3” drums in front from a big block Road Runner. Thanks for the kudos Shawn.
