Rolling with the strip pump for BB thanks!

Thanks all! Going to roll with the thanks!

Been planning on using a Carter Street Super fuel pump and now I want to order it and they’re sold out everywhere. Could you all help me pick out a pump that you have experience with? Going to be Running a 750 4160 requires 5-7psi Street Super is 5.5-7.5 psi-sold out Their Muscle car pump...

Thanks all! Going to roll with it. Hopefully have a short block by end of the week

This is my first time building an engine and am so close on piston ring gap I figured I would ask before exchanging them. 440 bored .030 over will be a street engine, 9.2:1 The book I have says compression rings .013-.025 Sealed Power says .004 for every inch of bore for a performance engine...

Are any of you aware of an affordable replacement? I am doing an engine swap in the next 2 months and would like to take care of it while easily accessible. I see plenty of the Cardone manufactured boxes but cannot find one for a 69 Dart. I do not want to spend more than $300 right now.

Dammmit! Had a feeling. Guess I’ll add it to the “one day” list and deal with it lol. Thanks as always for the help.

I have a 69 Dart with factory power steering. I can move the steering wheel back and forth about 4-5” without any movement in the wheels. With wheels in the air, I can see the input steering coupler move with the steering wheel however the pitman arm does not move at all within this slop range...

Thanks for the replies. Think I got it. Should have the 727 100% back together tomorrow.

I have .150 clearance on my high speed drum with the wavy snap ring in (.050). I have a 4 disc setup so going for .048 (.012 each disc). Even if I go with a .106 flat ring I’ll be at .094 clearance. How can I make this up now? I read I can use one of my old steels between the pressure plate...

Could have swore I had a post going about this but can’t find it. I ordered part #4222731 kind of on the fly and it is too small. Does anyone know of a plug that will fit a 1.25” opening? Pics attached.

Looking for an antenna delete plug #4222731

Going to roll with the diagram in post #8 except for the master switch being located in the rear most part of the car I will install a switch somewhere in cab for more of a security feature. Running 1/0 welding cable for the pos/neg to relays and to the starter. #4 welding cable to alternator...

Awesome information thank you. I sprayed the metal steering column with Eastwood Rust Encapsulator matte black, the rear seat upper metal trim with both DupliColor Caliper paint and Krylon self etching primer. Also used the caliper paint on the plastic door arm rest mounts. I think there was...

Think I’m just going to strip it all then use thinners and wax/grease remover. What a pain

This is the 2nd time I’ve attempted painting interior parts, first one was the steering column, and the same thing happens. I believe it’s fish eyeing but don’t know for sure. It’s done it with 3 different spray paint types on 3 different parts. I sanded all the parts down, wiped them well with...

Found this wiring diagram by a member here. What is the “Switched power source”that controls the alternators continuous duty relay?

Ah gotcha, so I could do another wire from the line side of the Ford solenoid to the engine bay starter relay?

I want to put the battery in the trunk and want a disconnect in cab for security purposes. I am not worried about NHRA guideline but…. if I went this route could I just add a master disconnect to the line side of the Ford relay to be within NHRA guidelines down the road?

What did you use to cut the holes for the white tabs?

Got the window and vent frame out. Wasn’t too horrible. Talk about a can of worms though. Good opportunity to really clean everything up good. Will probably order some new cat whiskers and give the interior side of the door a fresh coat of black.

Awesome thanks! I’ll see if we have one of those soldering irons at work.

Just got some new felt and tabs for the front of the door glass run channel. From what I’ve reached looks like I need to: -Pop the door glass out the top -Take the entire window channel with the vent glass out the top -Cut some holes for the tabs in the new felt/plastic -Trim the top side of...

Do you all think doing a refresh on this motor would benefit performance in any way? Thinking about honing the cylinders and installing fresh rings and obviously gasket kit. But with all the compression numbers close to each other it doesn’t seem like any one cylinder has any issues. I’m...

Wow good to hear about the KBS. I’m wondering how long ago this coating was put in the trunk. It’s super hard like KBS or POR and has rust under it. And a complete PAIN to remove. I would rather just cut and weld the bad spots, wire wheel the rest off, use a rust dissolver like Rust Mort in the...

This isn’t too bad, still going through it. I f there is any serious frame rust though that’s where I would throw in the towel. But it just seems like the package tray, trunk,

my plan is to wire wheel as much rust off as possible, cut and replace a few small spots that have actually rusted through the metal creating holes. Then apply Evaporust to the entire metal area. When done I want to coat the entire trunk and undercarriage of the car. I like the KBS coating but...

You calling me stupid? Ha kidding, yup still learning.

Got it! Set cylinder 1 at TDC, had the #8 cylinder plugged in there, I was off 1 all the way around the dist. I swapped all the plug wires and that car has never fired up faster! She was wanting it haha! Thanks everyone.
