Looking for hinge covers for a 69 valiant bench, black, shipping to Edmonton Alberta Canada T5L 2Y9

I had a 408 stroker built by a local builder. He made the assumption that I was going to run an electric fuel pump, but I want to go with a high flow mechanical. The motor is only 450hp tops, and I don't plan on making it make more (cast crank). He put the pictured below on the left spacer...

I remember seeing an old "how to" on bigblockdart on modifying a column shift to remove the lever for a floor shift. Cant find it any longer. Looking to restore an 67-69 column and do the modification. Any links to the resto and modification?

I searched the vaults for some info on this topic, but I'm still a bit unsure about where to drill holes for the hood pins. My car's a 69 valiant and I'm installing a fiberglass 6 pack hood. I know they didn't have pins from factory, so I figured I'd go with the location on a Duster. I'm...

So I'm having issues with fittings and hoses matching up my federal PS pump to the rack and pinion on my RMS AlterKtion, so I found a saginaw and brackets and I'm attempting to do the swap. Having issues on alignment, I'd say the pulley on the pump is about 3/16" too far back. What is an...

I installed the Reilly Motorsports Alterktion front end with a power rack and pinion. The kit came with hoses with flair fittings, the factory federal pump uses a bump tube fitting and o ring. Both have 5/8" 18 tread per inch pitch, but I cannot get a seal for obvious reasons. I've been to...

So, my dart shell has been sitting in storage for some time and I'm planning on getting to it. Was just a 69 /6 auto. A local guy has abandoned his Duster project and has the Gerst rear and front set up for a Gen3. I'm tempted to do the swap, so I've been combing through here to try to research...

Trying to get the last little things done on the 69 valiant to get the inspection. Wipers is one of them. they were working, put the arms on, tested the position, then they stopped. I can hear a clicking from what I'm guessing is a relay, they move a bit, but stop. Could this be a wiper motor...

So, I don't have reverse lights in my 69 Valiant. Installed a 727 and 408 stroker. Was a column shift, but I installed a Hurst Promatic. I thought there wasn't anything I needed to do and that the switch in the trans would still work when I shifted into reverse. What should I check? Bulbs work...

I'm getting so close to firing up my 408. I had it built by a local guy. Today we were priming the oil pump and almost immediately I had oil in the passenger side, but I can't get anything on the drivers side. I was building lots of pressure, and spun the shaft for a good 2-3 min a few times...

Hello all, Need to re-install my speedo cable. first, my buddy took the inner cable out, and now we don't know which end to thread it back, from the speedo end, or the transmission end. Second, what kind of lube is best, was going to use molly mist. Third, what is the proper route to run it...

Hi, Just wondering who has put the Bill Reilly Motor Sports Street-lynx 4 link in and how they ran the universal Lokar cables. Looking for suggestions, insight, how you did it, and what you might have changed. Pics would be great.

I had a 360 LA bored out .40 over, 408 stroker, solid lifters,larger oil pan. I'm getting ready to fire it up in the next week or so and want to make sure I have the right oil to crank it over, and then get the proper oil changes done in the break in process. I have some 30w in the garage, and I...

I have a 69 swinger project that's been sitting in my garage in pieces for years. I have another project that's taking my time and money. One of my other non vehicle related projects I work on is helping firefighters in other countries. Check out www.firefighteraidukriane.com (under...

Im trying to plumb new 3/8" fuel line to my 69 valiant, 408 stroker. upgrading to a 3/8" line, with a high flow mechanical fuel pump. Tried bending a metal line in the factory location, but the 90 degree tight bends at the rear wheel well are tricky and we crushed the tubing. Question(s)...

Does anyone have any experience with the Lokar or Wilwood emergency cable kit? I need to mate it to the factory brake cable at the bracket mounted to the drivers side floor (69 valiant). Apparently you can drill the brass block it came with to accept the factory cable end? Does anyone have any...

I have a small block 360 that I'm installing a power steering pump on and running with my Alterkation kit from Reilly Motor Sports. I have a Federal pump, and found the brackets. I'm wondering if anyone has photos of the bracket install and set up. I chose the Federal because it seems to be the...

I've rebuilt a 8 3/4 rear that I'm installing in my 69 valiant. It isn't the rear it came with (someone previously transplanted a 340 and 8 3/4). The first problem I encountered was the U joint in the propeller/drive shaft mating to the rear. The U joint on the drive shaft yoke was way to small...

So I have a few power steering pumps and I've decided to go with the Federal because of the clearance. Problem is I'm missing the two small triangle brackets (two pices in the bottom of the pic). They look a lot like the brackets used on the Saginaw. Can anyone confrim

I know new over the counter oils lack some of the components older oils had like zinc, and there are oils available out there for flat tappet lifter and cams, but has anyone ever used additives like "Cam-shield"?

Need to replace my fuel tank. I had it set out and was working on it in my drive way, and a buddy came by, forgot it was there and ran over it... FML Where in Canada can I find one?

I have the RMS suspension in the 69 valiant now, went in great. Put the Alterktion and street lynx kit in with Willwoods all around. Motor is built and ready to go. Going to send it to the shop to get the engine compartment and under carriage painted and undercoated. Leaning towards silver as I...

I need a stall for my 727. I'm putting it behind a 408 stroker. I went to a transmission shop today to inquire about the stall, and the guy wanted to know if I needed on that was balanced. My engine is internally balanced This is my first mild performance build, and I don't know a ton about...

I'm wondering which shifter to go with? B&M? Star, mega, sport, Z gate, quick silver? Cheetah? I'm running a 727 mated to a small block in my 69 valiant

I'm looking for advice and maybe some pics to go along with moding a sending unit to have a return fuel line. I'm building 69 valiant with a stroked 360, 750 dbl pumper, going to run 3/8 fuel line, and a return line to the stock tank. Is 5/16" return ok? How do I add it? Should I modify a...

Posting for a facebook friend: Hey everyone, it's Chris here and I could really use some help. Last week my 1980 Dodge Aspen (pictured) was vandalized in Edson while I was at work. Amongst other things, the rear window was smashed out and it is the one thing I am having zero luck finding a...

Looking to buy a set of headers for my 69 valiant. Reilly Motorsports Alterkation and Street Linx. 360 small block with Edelbrock Performer RPM heads. Shorties or Step? Looking at TTI's. Choked a bit when I heard the price vs. a ste t of hookers or headmans, but from what I hear they're great...

I've read a few forums on installing return lines, using the existing 5/16" fuel line for the return and running a new 3/8" line for supply. Question is, is there a right way and a wrong way to install the fitting for the return on the tank? I was planning on using a factory tank at the moment...
