    Unknown trim pieces

    Hey everyone, I have a 73 dart sport with the rear fold down seat option and I’m looking for some interior parts. I am unsure of what it’s called and can’t find it online, but I’m looking for the piece of trim located in the car, directly under the back glass, as well as the vinyl strip...

    Constant spark from coil

    The car wasn’t starting because there was no gas.. so my post about the coil was resolved. I tested spark at the plug, and it was the correct timing between sparks for when it fires. But wasn’t starting because no gas. So that issue is resolved. They ignition switch/ key issue is the one that I...

    Constant spark from coil

    Well gas in the bowls would also help… the coil issue is fixed. Still working on the key issue. Picking up new ballast today. Going to push button start soon anyways.

    Constant spark from coil

    By disconnected I mean I took off coil wire to distributor and placed tip near metal to test for spark. Then it proceeded to produce an endless stream of spark when cranking. Too much spark. Should have been more clear.

    Constant spark from coil

    Hey there, I have made a few posts on here about my ignition wiring and all the problems I have had. I have made headway but today a new problem has arose. I was testing around trying to get the key to work. My problem used to be that I would only get spark when starter is engaged. Anyways… I...

    1973 dart sport brake booster

    On that eBay link you sent, it states it is for Chevy. Or at least an upgrade from “GM” boosters. Is that still okay? Is it sort of universal?

    1973 dart sport brake booster

    Hey there again. I have run some tests and have pulled the brake booster for the 5th time now. Something is for sure wrong inside the actual booster. I found a rebuild kit online that i think will work. This is around $300 though. I have read other forums and some people say you cant put a dual...

    1973 dart sport brake booster

    I have a 360. Shouldn’t matter though. I went to said auto part stores and they said that part was discontinued basically. They told me to look at eBay. However I’d rather buy new instead of used. But maybe your part numbers will help. Thank you

    1973 dart sport brake booster

    Hey there. I have a 73 dart sport factory power brake car and I’m having issues with my booster. I do not have a video currently, however maybe someone can guide me in the right direction. I was idling the car after putting the transmission back in, and I lost brake pressure about 80%. The...

    Unsure on interior trim

    Hey there. I have an interior part that I can’t identify where it goes. It’s for a 1973 dodge dart sport. I tried to search the part number but couldn’t find anything. It looks to be a seatbelt cover but I’m not sure

    Cant tell if oil is mixing with my coolant.

    Yea. That back most header bolts, and front ones too. I totally forgot to put rtv and what not.. I am really hoping that the coolant is leaking down the side and appearing as if it’s coming from the head instead of the head itself. I think once I flushed the milky oil completely out, and redo...

    Cant tell if oil is mixing with my coolant.

    I drained the oil and it seems to be very milky. Maybe slightly less milky than the last time. Would there be enough residue from last time in there to make all of this brand new oil so milky? And okay I will check Dizzy and inlet. Also the oil appears to be clean in the rocker shaft, but I...

    Cant tell if oil is mixing with my coolant.

    All right sounds like I have some things to try. The rtv on the end bolts is obviously my problem. However for intake, I was sure to put rtv under and above the cork/felpro gaskets, and made sure to get some in the corner in and around the water ports. I used ultra grey rtv I believe. Is there a...

    Cant tell if oil is mixing with my coolant.

    Hello everyone, I recently finished some college finals and have been hard at work on my dart. I had the heads machined, just installed them with felpro 1008 head gaskets. And torqued the head bolts to 95 lb/ft. I then installed my rpm airgap intake and made sure rtv the water ports and...

    Head gaskets for 360

    I just placed an order for said dowel pins. And good call with the fel pro just in case something is still wrong.

    Head gaskets for 360

    The intake is aftermarket. It’s an rpm airgap. I do not believe the head or block has been milled. And I have no idea why the pins were missing. The previous owner of the car was a wacko.

    Head gaskets for 360

    Hello, this past weekend I assembled the top end of my La 360 for my 73 dart. Took a while to get running but it finally did. Then it started sounding like crap. I took off the valve cover and drained the brand new oil. And it was very milky. When I was putting on the head gaskets, I realized...

    360 water passageways

    Hey everyone, I was installing my rpm air gap intake on my LA 360 and I noticed that there is no where for water to flow through the intake from the head on the back. Is this ok? Does it need to be blocked or something? Here is a pic of the water jacket on the back of the heads. Here is a...

    New Small Block Headers

    Hey everyone. It’s been a while. Finally got some time to finish the header install and put the engine back together. .. now both head gaskets are leaking coolant. Don’t know if they were defective or what happened, but have to disassemble the top end once again and going to start fresh. Would...

    Broken bell crank bolt

    Hey there, recently I’ve been installing a set of hedman headers(mistake) into my 73 dart sport. Has a 360 and 727. When removing some linkage to fit the driver side header in, I broke the bell crank pivot bolt for the Kickdown linkage. The rest of the bolt still resides in the hole, whereas I...
