Well I'm still stressing out about which 5 spd to put in the 71 Duster and torque specs always come into the picture. Problem is that I have no idea how much HP or TQ this engine will make so if any of you racers or engine builders care to make an educated guess, have ater. This engine was built...

Time to get this Mopar project moving again. I am ready to do the Tremec TKO 600 5 speed conversion and would appreciate any advice from someone who has done it. I know Quick time makes the bellhousing and the trans mount needs to be modified but I need details. I spoke to a fellow at Keisler...

This question is probably more for the New Yorkers out there but any help would be great. I would like the recipe for the thick Canadian sizzling bacon that is served at Peter Lugers and Ben & Jacks in New York. A couple of times when I was in NY a friend of mine took us there for dinner and had...

Rented a mini excavator today to trench in the power and gas lines for the new garage, WHAT A BLAST! This thing is more fun than a ride at Disneyland. Took a while to get used to the controls but that was half the fun, only made one small hole in the wall of the garage LOL. Hmmm, maybe it's time...

Just want to give a big thanks to Hemillama for all his help. After replying to my post looking for motor mount brackets for my 340 which I could not find locally, he sent many PM's including photos to verify they were correct then shipped them PPD by UPS without asking for any payment! Once...

I've posted a lot of questions and started threads about specific aspects of my car (mostly about race mods) but haven't done a proper build thread with photo's of the car so after a few requests from members here it is. I purchased the car off of fleabay and drove down to Seattle area to pick...

Went to bolt the tranny to the bellhousing last night so I could install the engine in the car and measure the driveshaft length and the large hole in the Lakewood scattershield is TOO SMALL. I bought the scattershield used from a member here and it fits onto the engine but the input bearing...

So I thought I was going to finish assembling my 340 till I went to install the oil pan. Nope, wrong gaskets. The engine is a 1968 but it has a deep sump pan, probably Milodon or Moroso and the fel pro gaskets I bought dont fit. The fel pro have several rubber tits to hold the end seals in place...

I was wondering about some of the options my car has and hope some knowledgeable Mopar experts could help out: V24 code hood treatment/engine callout. How common is this option, did it include factory hood pins? A88 340 interior decor group. Did all 340's have it, what all did it include...

I have purchased a few items from some FABO members and would like to pass on a thanks and let everyone know they delivered items as promised in the condition described and were all great to deal with: oldkimmer / Edelbrock Torker intake damraider / Lakewood scattershield 68darthawaii / Holley...

I'm going driveshaft hunting this week, are there different transmission output shaft sizes or spline numbers. Do 904, 727, 933 4spd trans use different slip yokes? There are some 70's and 80's dodge trucks in a local boneyard that should make good donors that can be shortened just need the...

I am looking for a set of motor mounts (left and right) for 71 Duster 340. These are the steel brackets that bolt to the block. Kev

I've never owned a car with a line loc. My Duster has one installed but not wired to a switch. I have a 4 gear with a pistol grip, where's the best place to mount a switch?

I've been reading threads about tire size and fittments under particular A bodies hoping to get the answer to this question but am still not sure of the answer, as well as about spring offset kits etc. I know that 29 x 9 x 15 fits but is that the max with out spring relocation. I was hoping to...

I'm going to order a Jegs or Summit exhaust kit and would like opinions. Should I go with 2 1/2" and use manual plate cutouts on race day or install 3" and leave connected for racing. 3" would be less to do come race day, 2 1/2 would mean removing the plates but sound better when racing.

I have a 1971 duster that I purchased a couple of months ago. The pass fender to door gap is uneven from top to bottom, I removed the lower attaching bolts as well as the one in the fenderwell and I can't pull the bottom closer to match the upper gap. The top is about 1/4" and the bottom almost...

Looking for good or core bumpers for 1971 Duster. Also need 4 spd driveshaft. Prefer western Canada due to shipping cost. Kev

Well the decision is made, no more---stroker or standard stroke/hydraulic or solid cam/ roller or flat tappet/10/11/or 12:1 pistons. My 340 for the 71 Duster was unloaded off the truck yesterday and I'm thrilled. Turns out the fellow I bought the car from decided to sell the engine after all ...

So, I have this 71 Duster 340 with a 4 gear, no engine and an 8 3/4 with 4:30 gears. I bought it to get back into drag racing which I haven't done for 30 years (kids and life have a way of changing priorities). I need lots of info and was hoping the very knowledgeable people on this great site...

Just picked up 71 Duster and need the following: Sharks tooth grille, 340 block or complete engine(.040 overbore or less) front and rear bumpers, headers. I am located in Edmonton, Alberta.
