68 Dart Project.
Been keeping busy on the Dart, seems doing a little is taking a lot as of late..
Had to drop the oil pan to change the oil line bulkhead fitting. Milodon shipped 45 degree fittings, which wouldn’t work. Needed 90 degree on both the oil pump and pan. Because the o ring is between the pan and the pick up, the pan had to come down. The new black 90 fixed things up. I don’t know how I’m gonna get the flexible dipstick to fit, it’s on back order still..
Been building on the left side exhaust. It’s now finished, minus the stainless steel tips that are sitting in the Summit cart. I decided to go with 3” over 3.5”, solely because of the decibels. Although I did step up to 3.5 for the angled tip.
The SS tip will end up close to the rocker panel ahead of the tire a ways. I chose to kick the exhaust out the side over dumps or tail pipes,
Will finish the right side exhaust tomorrow. And that’s about it for progress.
