Selling my '72 Scamp. I've had it for a few years and just don't have time to work on it. It was originally a 318/904 car. Now has a 360/727 from a late 70's dodge van. I was told by the previous owner that the engine/trans has 80k on it. New brake shoes, lines, hoses on all four corners...

Thanks man, I needed that. I haven't driven a muscle car in a few years. My last car was a gasser style Studebaker with no interior. I liked it that way. The louder the better!

Man, that looks pretty sweet. If that's a 20 footer then mines a 100 footer, at night, in the rain.

I haven't had a drag in 4 years. Used to smoke 2 packs a day. Something that really helped me when I quit was mint toothpicks. I'd always have one of those hangin' out of my mouth instead of a cigarette. I still reach for a toothpick when I get stressed out. Good luck!!!

My parents took me to see the John Cusack movie Better off Dead in 1985. I was Fifteen years old, and the '67 rally sport Camaro featured in the movie did it for me. I bought a '68 Firebird a year later, and I've always had some sort of muscle car ever since.

I ran a tunnel ram on a street driven 460 powered Ford Fairlane for a while. It was absolutely frightening above 3000 RPMs. Below that it was just OK. I took the tunnel ram off and put on a weiand stealth dual plane and couldn't believe how much more low end power I had. The difference was...

...That sits just right. Very nice.

The best thing I ever did to my last two cars was cut off the header collector flanges and weld on ball and socket flanges. No gasket to blow out, and they seal great. I think I got mine from summit.

Yup, they're fast. I still wouldn't be caught dead driving one of those things. That Supra would blow the doors off my car, but damn, it sounded like $h!t!

WOW! Great video. Thanks for posting.

...grew up loving both bands...and I thought that was bad-***!

Sweet. PM sent

I took a look at the Mancini's and the Schumacher's (those poly locks are sweet) but they are WAY out of my budget. If that's all that's available I'll just have to fabricate my own. I can cut up the van mounts that I have and make 'em work with the Scamp.

Thanks guys. I didn't think those would work. I'll try to hunt down the right motor mounts.

Hey fellas, I've been piecing together the basket case '72 Scamp I bought a few months ago and I'm about ready to drop the engine in. It's a 360 out of a '77 Dodge van. I put the correct oil pan on it, but I'm not sure if these motor mounts are right for the Scamp. Can anyone point me in the...

Wow..that pic just brought me right back to high school! Cool!

Damn! You guys are fast around here! Thanks fishy.

The 360 I plan on dropping in my '72 Scamp is from a van and has a rear sump. What pan do I need on this engine? I've seen pans with the sump all the way up front, and some that were more in the middle. The car was originally a 318 if that matters.

Thanks to the VIN decoder on this site I figured out that my new Scamp was born with a 318. I have a 360 to put in it. Is there any weight difference between the two engines? I'm trying to figure out if I need to change the torsion bars when I drop the 360 in.

Yup. The rear rally wheels on there have way less back spacing than the fronts. They are 14 inchers. Don't know how wide they are though.

Hi guys. I just bought my first Mopar, a '72 Plymouth Scamp. It originally had a 318, but I will be putting in a '77 360 that came with the car. I'm sure I'll be bugging you with all sorts of questions. I'm glad this site is out there. Talk to you soon.
