    67 Dart-upgraded alternator

    I was doing a little reading about alternators in this forum. When I restored my 67 Dart I upgraded my wireing harnesses with new wire if needed. When I installed my electronic ignition system, I also upgraded my alternator to 78 amps-I purchased one for a 85 Dodge Pickup D100. It fit with out...

    67 Dar 273 Intake manifold watr leak

    I used rtv on the ends. The guy said that if it became necessary he would replace the heads. Sometimes the simplest things can stop a train. After I installed the intake I put he carb on the, first the gasket and then the 1/6" plate. What I failed to do was put another gasket on between...

    67 Dar 273 Intake manifold watr leak

    RedFish, I think that you are correct about the calculations being are flawed. I will take your suggestion. I just don't want to take everything apart again. I am going to request that the guy get me new heads. If need be I might retain an attorney. My wife pays $7 a month for attorney...

    67 Dar 273 Intake manifold watr leak

    The heads were originally milled .050. I never had the 340 Intake milled. The new intake was milled .080 sides, .090 ends. I used the Edelbrock composit intake gasket (.060) the second time I installed the Edelbrock intake. I am still getting a leak on the right side. I used carb cleaner and...

    67 Dar 273 Intake manifold watr leak

    My third time-still a leaking problem on the sides, even with the composit gasket and rtv. I have tightned and re-tightned. I need to talk to the guy that did the machining and see what his other solutions may be. I guess the only logical thing to do is put on other heads. It's trying to...

    67 Dar 273 Intake manifold watr leak

    Another problem I have run into is-trying to torque 3 bolts. I have ft lbs and inch lbs. The 3/8x3/8 socket fits but there is no room for a flex extension or the wrench. I am using edelbrock bolts, 3/8 12 point. The first time I used a 3/8 wrench and guestimated 25 ft lbs and gave it an extra...

    67 Dar 273 Intake manifold watr leak

    The machine shop did my engine work in 2006. Bore, valves, cam. He milled sides and ends. The engine is in the Dart. There probably should have not been any milling done at all, but he did it to raise the compression to 9.7:1. Dave

    67 Dar 273 Intake manifold watr leak

    RedFish, What is your recommendation for sealing-do I use Ultra Black and put it on both sides of the gasket same as I did on the metal gasket? Did leave anything out. Thanks again. Some times growing old is a real pain-but I still am very active. l climb trees and run with my grand...

    Thanks RedFish. Your always very helpful. I found 2 at advance auto parts, pn 1205composit with printoseal bead and 1206 same-however 1206 shows for my specific engine. I need to double check cause I don't trust the people at the auto parts stores. Dave

    Why the compsoite? Is that because the heads and intake are milled? Thanks dave

    A few day ago I installed a new Edelbrock 2176 Intake. The first day I drove it it was fine.

I put in a new...

    67 Dart Heat A/C cable

    I know where the cable attaches from the heat and vac switch on the dash-- but does it run between the heater and ac where they attach or on the top of the heater and a/c box. I know that it make a difference. My maintenance manual does not indicate where it runs just where the cable ends...
