    What are the best small block to big block conversion mounts?

    schumacher are the nicest in my opinion. have the transdapt ones in our dart now and don't like them. cheap imitation of Schumacher in my opinion.

    Identifying Direct Connection Valve Covers

    could be bought in the later 80's/ early 90's. not sure when they originally appeared or how late they were sold but i bought them in the time frame i posted.

    Trans Dapt or Mancini for Slant 6 to 440 swap?

    i have the transdapt in my dart. not a fan. cheap looking, cheap feeling and just not finished very nicely.. fit ok but if i did it over again i'd go schumacher. much nicer product. '67-72 A-Body V8 or S6 to Big Block Kit

    Orange Box?

    i've seen those damn orange boxes leave more mopars stranded then i can count.. seems like any orange box built after, say the mid 80's was hit or miss... way too many failures of them for me.

    Big Block Suspension Question

    thats what we are running on our dart too.. rather have gone 17" but jamie wanted body color steel wheels and i couldn't find them in 17". have since saw someone makes them in alum but man are they expensive..

    Big Block Suspension Question

    yea but a tie rod has more a clamp then just a jamb nut.. just one of those thing that i don't like on a street car.. prefer only one side being able to move.
  15. abodyjoe

    Big Block Suspension Question

    i prefer only having the one side that can move.. yes i can see the qa1 style is easier to adjust i just never liked both sides needing jamb nuts like the qa1 strut rods.. just a goofy fear of them both loosening and losing the strut rod all together..lol

    Big Block Suspension Question

    those are RMS upper arms and strut rods. they do carry some stock style stuff.... pst sells rms strut rods just with pst decals on them.. sure.. can help dial things a little more.. where the directions say to put them usually gets you where ya want it. .

    Big Block Suspension Question

    pete from Home - Bergman Auto Craft - Home of Quality Muscle Car Parts a sponsor here sells sway away 1.08 bars that would probably be good option for ya.

    Big Block Suspension Question

    not needed.. if mostly street driven just put larger torsion bars (1"+) and a sway bar along with a quality shock and be done with it.. that being said. an alter-k-tion is awesome up front.. nothing feels like that r&p steering and man the room under there for headers is second to none..

    68 Cuda 383 vs a 360

    I found most things easier to do on my big block abodies. Those top trans bolts much easier, timing and dist work is much easier, plugs some easier some not. Hard to beat small block tti headers for plug access. That being said my big blocks with pro part headers weren't bad at all to get to.
