This !! Also, I highly suggest getting a microphone. If using the stock internal microphone, the audio tends to be tinny.

This x1000! While any Mopar I do personally must be Chrysler powered, the 8.8 is the way to go. An 8.75 rear for an A body is stupid expensive and you are stuck with small bolt pattern axles. Pricing everything out, an 8.75 spec'd like I want it would be at least $1500. The 8.8 would set...

While I'm usually not the biggest fan of a v6, this is totally unique and out of the box. It should be a peppy machine that gets fairly decent mpg which is needed this day in time. I can't agree with the 1st post though. I haven't seen enough gen iii hemi swaps for them to be even remotely...

Is that an 8.25 rear?? How did you do the e brake setup? I was thinking about doing this to my '42 Dodge pickup because it has an 8.25 and I have the Jeep brake setup laying here.

Another reason I'd stay with the gen iii Hemi. It bolts to stuff I already own or have on hand. It would cost me more $$ to convert to Chevy stuff. I'd have to sell my Mopar parts off (probably at a loss) and start over. I have no interest in doing so.

The "cheap" thing I simply do not understand. They say budget LS but I keep seeing stuff like AFR or Trick flow heads that are over $2k a pair. Then they put twin turbos on them... I don't know whose budget they are talking about but I'm wondering if their place of employment is hiring... As...

This!! The only advantage I see to the LS is that it has a large aftermarket. I don't see what is so cheap about it. Ls engines in my area are very expensive. Simply not worth the effort or headache in my opinion. If you took away it's large aftermarket, what would be the appeal to the engine...

Oh man, I wished I could like this post more than once!! In my opinion. ...which is worth what I'm paid for it $0.00...is that it is their car and their $$ and I'm not going to tell anybody how to build what they want. It's hard for me to put down somebody's time and effort. With that said...

I believe he is talking about the 5.9 Cummins. They are excellent engines with stellar fuel mileage.

I ran it in a 904 many years ago with a /6 bracket car. It worked very well in it.

This is my idea of creative, different and fun!!

Dad still has his 1976 Feather Duster that he has owned since probably '97 or '98. It regulary got 32/33 mpg on the highway. 225, 3 speed with overdrive and 2.76 rear (7.25) if I remember correctly. We will get around to fixing it some day and it will go back to original. While we are not purist...

How about 1,700hp??? 1100hp R3 sb 1,100HP Street-Legal 1972 Plymouth Duster Purple Terror: How to Get 1,000 HP Out of a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda Point being there are several out there. There was also a tube chassis Sebring with a 390 stroker making around 1150. I lost that info quite a while...

That's my opinion as well. The best money you can spend on a slant 6 is the head.

Those sure look nice but I'm not sure how much of a gain that they have. A couple of guys I used to race slant's with gave me mixed reviews on them. One claimed it was a gain of two tenths. The other claimed it was zero gain on his particular engine and said to save my money. The 2 tenth gain...

If I'm not mistaken, didn't the Cox bros used to offer a roller? I believe they are long out of business though.

Thanks for the info. I forgot to mention that I already have a set of the 1.70/1.44's that I have had for years but wasn't sure if anyone was using them with stock bore. Just trying to see what setup I could get by with on the cheap with what I have. I had also heard of some using the 300 Ford...

What oversize valves have members run here? If I was to throw together a cheap fun engine, I was wondering what size valves could be used with a stock bore, if any??

These folks got a green '73 Dart and a '74 Duster off of me many years ago. They are good people to deal with! (sorry can't remember names to well..haha)

Could a 1972-78 replacement piston be used in an earlier 440 without issue? The listing for pistons are usually '66-71 then '72-78....

Does anyone know if a '66 Dart lid fits on a '65? Not worried about correctness. I noticed they do make '66 lids in fiberglass. It will be a strip only car.

Looking for front fenders and grille for a '63-66 a body. It can be Dart, Valiant or Barracuda. I'm not to particular on which model. The only specific is that it be priced within reason. I need it in or around North Carolina. Anywhere else would not be worth it due to inflated shipping costs.

How wide of a wheel and tire combo can you get on the rear of a 63-66 Dart? (stock) I'd say not to much without mods....

That is really cool that you used a Pontiac engine. If I ever own a Chevy, I will look to other forms of power for it. Probably a Buick, Olds or Pontiac engine or Cadillac 472/500. The 350 is most boring power plant that I can think of. The only thing that I think hasn't been done with...

I run a very old (vintage) Racer Brown cam 520 lift with 254 duration. 108 LSA. 904 auto. Putting car back together. Not a street car by any means though. I had a small Isky cam but not sure if they still offer /6 cams...

I am a slant guy but being that we own two Cummins powered trucks, I'd have to go that route hands down. Dad's '01 24v gets an easy 20+mpg anytime. The only slant vehicle I have seen get better fuel economy than a Cummins is dad's Feather Duster. Power and mpg go to the diesel without question.

273 rocker arms from a '65 Barracuda. Partially soaked in oil and in great shape but I'd still give them a good clean up of course before installation. I don't have the pushrods. Paypal is the way to pay. $100 shipped to you. pm here <iframe...

Steven, this is a simple case of miscommunication. Keep in mind that I'd never drag anyone's name through the mud for the hell of it. It is not the classy thing to do.

Resolution has been made and all is well. Steven isn't a bad guy at all. No hate or animosity is present.

If you are unfamiliar with casting numbers and want to know if a slant has a steel crank or not, just look at the ridge right behind where the water pump mounts. The chunk of steel that runs to side of the block (triangular in a way) will be kinda flat and wide on a steel crank engine. Cast...
