4spdragtop: that's what I plan on doing. I just had that last question that I wanted to ask really to see your guys thoughts.

I've been thinking doing a Dr. Jekyll Mr. Hyde exhaust set up on my duster, but I don't know what the parts are called and thought I might give it a shot and see if anybody on here has any idea on where to get the parts or at least what their called.

Well Ive been thinking and both blocks are the same. Besides bigger bore, heads, etc. Here's my first question. Don't both engines just need 5 quarts of oil? If so couldnt you just swap the oil pans to make them fit in their new homes?

Well after further investigation I beleive what's gone on is the original owner thought they could squeeze a couple extra mpg so they threw the single barrel carb from the slant six on to the 318. That's the only thing I can think of that would make since for that single barrel to be on.

Well with the details I just found out with putting the 360 in I don't think I want that much hassle. I think I'll be keeping my lil 318 around for quite a bit longer. Thanks you guys!!!! This is by far the best site I could ask for. Especially for someone young and new to the world of mopar.

I'm just gnna get straight to the advice I need. I've got a 73 Duster. There's a 318 that's sat for 18 years but still runs like a champ. There's a guy at my church that has a 76 dodge 3/4 ton with a 360 that he's willing to give me the engine if I put in my 318 in his truck for him. The 360...

It's been quite sometime since I've been on here. Thank you all for the advice. It's sounding like it'll be a couple years till I'll be able to finally do everything I want to do. Either way thank you every much for all the advice this newbie to mopar needed.

'73 plymouth duster

To Mopar to ya: Idk if I want to purchase anything just yet. I just wanted to know what your guys answers were. and to 1970duster: Thanks! Im gnna be adding some horse to it later on but not close to 500 at all!!!

What would be the best set for headers to us on a 73 plymouth duster 318? And what I mean by best is a set that can snake through the engine comparment and not be in the way of anything.

I need the sealer/gasket that goes around the filler neck that seals the gas tank. I need to know where I can purchase one without having to buy the neck with it. Pls and thank you for all who can help.

Hmm interesting tylerw thank you for that! I will most certainly look at mine harder to see if I can find the b now!!

Well I guess I'll find out soon if bendix is worth the faith I've put towards into them now. Haha

That's what I thought but wasn't 100% sure I thought I'd double check with at least some before I tell people what it is.

Well bendix is the brand and they are legit! And I hate to tell you this I had wagners on the front and brakes best on the back(oreilys brand) and my drums would not fit over! I used bendix each drum is slipping on like a glove.

I believe they were called brakes best?? But I'll double check and on my driver side front won't fit either so I'm gnna order Bendix again and I used a different brand on the front as well so I'll figure out what kind they are as well!

I have a 73' duster, orginal engine was a 225. Orginal owner blew the engine up and had a 318 put in to it. I dont know what year the 318 but we have been told that it came out of another duster in that time period. Recently ive been offered a 360 out of a 78 dodge quarter ton and i was...

I've been meaning to post some pics of this hemi orange stamp that has a capital "P". I just really want to know what it means if it's juat a inspection stamp or somethign else?

Well terrific news!! I ordered a new pair from car quest and got the pads in yesterday. Swapped out the other new pair and the drum slipped on like a glove! Thank you all for helping me and before I end this I would suggest to people when redoing they're brake system go with bendix brakes! Cause...

The only new parts are the pads and wheel cylinder.

the drums were on so tight we had to use a gear puller to get it off.

Yeah the e-brake is off.

All the way!

9" inch drums all the way around. 73 Plymouth duster. The rear drums have been turned to 9.1" and they are barely big enough to fit over the pads and you can not turn the tire at all once everything is bolted down. The brake assembly is all correct. Do I have the wrong pads or what's going on...

Thanks a ton you guys!!! I'll do what y'all say and get back to you on my outcome! Thanks again!!!

Recently I've gotten my 73 Plymouth duster ready and noticed one day while working on it I don't have any instrument lights! Only the "fasten your seat belt" light and buzzer come on. On top of that the only gauge that works to is the speedometer. All the fuses have been replaced in my fuse box...

So here's the question! What's better, a stock 1973 ignition module or a aftermarket/performance one?

Tonight I was working on my 1973 Plymouth Duster with a 318, originally this duster had a 225 slant six but the original owner blew up the engine do to the point they forgot the oil. So the owner had her sons put a 318(year of engine is own know) but we know it came out of another duster...

Thanks doba daddy for the info, I'm not to worried about the brake fluid since its branding spanking new do to the cause it didn't have any brake fluid when I first received it!!

Well I know this may not help you out at all but the junkyard up in MT has a couple fairly complete duster with dumpers if you really need it and can't find any down in Cali.
