1963 Dodge Dart 270 Convertible for the Wife
The flooding seemed like the float was to high and was flooding when hot. These Daytonas as SUPER simple to work on. Pulled the side bowls and yup the flooding one was much high than the other. No tools or measurements I just lower them both to an equal place. An old tuner here in Az swears by lowering floats by 1/8" to deal with the heat here. Drove it around and it did not flood out. Need a warmer day and longer trip to be sure. Got the final pieces from Classic Industries to put semi original looking wipers on. Amco makes adapter arms to get you from the originals that have the bolt in them to ones that can take modern wiper blades. These are OER reproduction blades to fit with the era. Only the small round adjustment blob gives it away. The body plugs from DMT are a bit small and fell out. A bit of adhesive will keep them in. Put the top down with the window and these were designed to ensure scratching the plastic. Put a towel between the plastic and frame to help it last a bit longer without a scratch.
