    Am I crazy or is this project Duster way overpriced?

    Well A bodies ARE appreciating greatly, but not THAT great. lol

    Basic Distributor Question

    The initial body position does not matter. It is 8 cyl, so you have a choice of 8 positions. On some engines that use a vac adv dist, the VA unit may get in the way....so select another position.

    Am I crazy or is this project Duster way overpriced?

    man, you'd be surprised. there's some real crack pipe pricing going around of late. also, as 72blu eluded to, people see these cars sell for 60K and think: hell, mine's gotta be worth half that! because "reasons" that only make sense in their head.

    Am I crazy or is this project Duster way overpriced?

    prices have gone up since the earl aughts, but not that much. 6-ish is a little more in line with with what that should probably go for-- location dependent. the interior is passable, the body looks rock solid and the undercarriage looks workable. that's all plusses. also, expand your search...

    Another "what's it worth?" thread

    Came across a set of NOS Mopar tail lamp lens for a 73-76 Plymouth Duster. Still in the original boxes. I opened the boxes to check their condition. Like new. I'm not seeing re-pops out there. Could be I'm not looking in the right places, but..... Anyway, any clue what they're worth.

    Cost for labor on stroker build?

    i do not own a minivan. closest i've come there was a 68 chevy sport van 108. wonderful little van. 10/10 would own another one. your 2018 taurus looks like something a midlevel regional manager at ross dress for less would drive. that's like, the car that resourcing reserves for you on a...

    Cost for labor on stroker build?

    that sounds too much like Mini Van Damme, which would be far too cool for Dal the Naan.

    Got a new Truck (new to me)

    Thanks. I will have to find a way to make a mopar alternator work. I have several from the 70s and 80s plus a couple magnum era ones. I'm sure I could just wire in an old style voltage regulator and it work. I may look into that hei conversion. I've heard good things about them I know...

    Cost for labor on stroker build?

    I'm sure that it would. I was wrong about the time frame of the build. Randy built his 406 sbc roughly 10 years ago, man how time goes by. Going by today's cost of things I can believe $20k for the 680 hp sbc that you are talking about.

    440 power gains/ aluminum head advantages?

    You got that right, not to mention the sprockets being machined poorly with the keyways in the wrong places. Add that to the cheap chain stretching and you can really stack the lack of tolerances up! I've seen a timing set come up almost 12 degrees retarded on a big block Chevy and that was with...

    Factory pressures where 150- 160. My 383 magnum was 155 @ 3000feet

    Got a new Truck (new to me)

    OK the Alternator was a 60 amp, double pulley bought at Autozone for a 1985 Ford F150 application. The one wire kit is designed for '85 and earlier Ford and 60 amp or less Alternators. ABS junction block af the rear was all froze up, out it goes. Went with the Mopar HEI ignition conversion...

    Old magnum MP cam info

    This is the first I've heard of it. @Bighead440 is really sharp with this stuff. Maybe he will chime in.

    440 power gains/ aluminum head advantages?

    Not degreeing a cam is a huge mistake a lot of guys make. You can never assume it's going to be even close. If you put a lower cost timing chain in they will stretch and you'll lose 2-3 degrees within a 100 miles. You don't have to pull the heads to degree a cam, but that's the first place I...

    440 power gains/ aluminum head advantages?

    Cranking compression and "cranking psi" are the same thing. You're looking for the cylinder we pressure the engine makes while cranking. A late intake valve closing (like an excessively retarded cam install) will show up as lower cranking compression values. 160 psi seems a bit low to me...

    Old magnum MP cam info

    This is what I found, no idea if true. "It's the RT+10 cam. duration - 272/278 o-lap - 37 centerline - 119 lift - .467/.482 recom. spring - P5249464"

    Am I crazy or is this project Duster way overpriced?

    The whole “survivor” label is misleading. If it hasn’t been started in 20+ years it’s not a survivor. It died over 20 years ago. That’s a 1 owner project car that needs everything rebuilt. It’s a cool car, but on a non-running car the low mileage isn’t as significant. It’s like selling a NOS...
