I have been running Hooker Super Comps on my 71 Duster since 1981. 440 RB,727, frame connectors. When built fenderwell headers was only available for crazy's like me. I have conquered all the said issues, pro and con. It's a race car I drive on the street. It never sees the rain and I don't...

Is this housing still available?

Know where I can get a housing for it?

Does that rear end come in the housing?

I have ran an 8 1/4 in my 440 duster for 30 years with street tires. Holding up to 500 hp. and lots of torque! I once considered a change. If I were to go to the drags often maybe I would.

I own a DC K member. Fantastic piece! Paid $75 bucks for it in 1981. Proud owner.

I am wiring in a Spal dual fan unit with sepatate fuses and relays. The directions are generic for use in all vehicles. Leaves somewhat to be desired. Needless to say some troubleshooting has been done to get everything working properly on a temporary basis. I still have an issue or two before I...

First thing I can remember was my dad had a 1957 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer, black. Then he bought a 1963 Dodge Custom 880, new. In 1971 the 880 was my first car after my older sister and brother got done with it. Since then I've had a 73' Roadrunner 318. A 73' Charger SE, 400, 727. 73 Charger...

For some reason I didn't see it that way on my 73 1 ton Tradesman. Easy to take off the intake and heads, no bs settin on top the engine in those years and the dash allows a little more clearance out the side than the 97. But then I just couldn't bring my self to dismantle the whole front end...

I pulled and replaced a 318 out the passenger door of a 73' Maxivan. Remove the intake and heads and pull the shortblock. Pretty easy that way and goes back in the same way. No need to mess with the grill, core support or cut anything. Take out seat and door.

I freakin love this thread! I would either build the 383 or drop a 440 in it! Ain't no replacement for displacement!!!!!

Sept 11th, Saturday. 2 to 9 P.M. They will block off Broadway, Downtown. 600 Cars are expected to attend based on last years turnout.

Thanks Donnie. Great meeting you there and Omnicrazy. For those of you who don't know, mine is the Green 71 Duster in the pics. I was surprised to see 3 other Dusters at the show other than mine, all very nice. Nice mopars were present in force 8). The Silver 63' Plymouth Belvedere with the 426...

Omnicrazy, you gonna be at the carshow in Ludlow Falls this comming weekend? I am checking my schedule to see if I can attend.

Love the color. Had a 73 Roadrunner that color with red stripes!

Put in the 383 or sell it to someone like me who will use it!

I hear ya ls 300. We had a whopper of a storm here last nite. I think mean green will stay in the barn tonight. We will have to make a point to invade some of these cruise ins in the near future.

Thanks for that Link Donnie. There are some Cruise Ins in my area that I didn't know about. I will have to meet Omnicrazy and some of the other Fabo's and hit some of these. Hot Rod Heaven sounds fun.

The Picture you see in my avatar was my Barn Find. I am having trouble uploading the pic of it then. It was in outstanding shape with no rust, /6 auto, AC, 1/4" OF DUST ON IT, YEAH! For $350! I sold the /6 and trans for $150. I rebuilt it from the ground up with 440 Super Commando, A 727, and...

Great Deal! Be sure to grab the parts cars. 81/4 rear end and needed K member and brake parts too.

Greetings from North of Dayton Oh.

Greetings!

A maidrite is a famous sandwich shop in Greenville Ohio. Known for a tasty special recipe sandwich that is addicting. One must buy a bagfull! I am waiting for the plan on this cruise. We need to make the Maidrite Sandwich shop a stop on this cruise. Omnicrazy, do ya want me to see if they will...

Yes Joe, I asked Ron if he used stock specs. He said yes. He sat down and read the Mopar Action publication and we talked about it some. He said he was open to new ideas and went to work. He also found and fixed a problem with the Pitman and Idler arms that largely was responsible for the...

Instability problem solved! Thanks Dave, the Skosh Chart you recommended was viewed and helped Ron dial it in for me. Mean Green has never driven and handled better! Here are the specs Ron used. Left Front Right Front -0.37* Camber...

Ok Dave. I read your earlier post the 1st time and copied it, all 5 pages! I plan on discusing these specs with my alignment guy. I also look at all other possibilities to be on the smart side. I examine all the possibilities and elliminate them one at a time until the car handles. Thanks again...

Yes, as I said in an earlier post. I went from a 71 disc brake setup to a 73-76 BBP disc brake setup. swapped the spindles side to side to mount the brakes in the rear to clear the sway bar and such. Something definately changed the dynamics for sure. Can't change it back now, just need to know...

I am betting that you are right Joe. I think Ron will fix me up. It doesn't hurt me to gain some knowledge from my forum friends before I take it back. What are forum friends for!?

The only way I can reply to that Joe. Grilliot's Alignment shop. It is their specialty. They have been in business since the Model T. Probably 3rd generation. Ron Grilliot, the current owner is older than I. He aligned it himself. Every hotrodder and musclecar owner in the area take it to Ron...

Ok forum friends, now I think we are getting somewhere on this problem I am having with Mean Green. I researched "Bump Steer" like Green1 suggested. While I was looking the Duster over yesterday, checking all the components for looseness, I didn't find any looseness. I did notice that when...
