Before asking my question, here's the backstory. I have a '68 Dart with the 1970 ignition system; dual field squareback alt (Powermaster), electronic VR, dedicated 10g charge wire from the Alt Batt stud to the starter relay. Ammeter is hooked up and works, stock wiring through the bulkhead...

The same tires and rims are on the car since I bought it in 2012. Fronts are 15 x 6 w/ 4.0 back space steelies shod with 205/60-15 BFG. Rears are 15 x 7 w/ 4.25 back space steelies on 245/60-15 BFG. The tires are embarrassingly old and as much as I dig the steelies, I've (pretty much) decided...

The weekend started out just swapping the bucket seats (non-Mopar) for a pair of Procar 90's. One thing led to another and now since the seats are out it would be a good time to upgrade from lap belts to 3 pt shoulder belts. Where would the shoulder belt attachment point be on a post car?

Hey Mark, Thanks for remembering! https://www.cameo.com/v/5fe22beee3aedf001d6d5516?utm_campaign=video_share_to_copy

My handheld died and FiTech discontinued the gen 2.0 version, now have a "new and improved" version for $200. Does anyone have a known-good controller they'd like to get rid of? Thanks, Rich

Sprung a pinhole leak in the original radiator and even though the Dart doesn't haven't overheating issues, this was the time to replace with an aluminum unit. Based upon the positive reviews on this site for Cold Case they were my first choice. Even though it's a 68 Dart it has a magnum 360...

Set of black seat belts from a 68 bench seat Dart. Reused the retractors so they're not for sale. The belts are all in good condition; only the far right belt in the photo has a rip. The pin in one of the handles is broken. They could use a good cleaning. Asking $40+shipping from Lincoln, CA.

I want to start by thanking all the members here who have posted in the past answering charging system questions. I downloaded the comments and performed what I think is a comprehensive test and diagnosis of my low charging issue. The car is my 68 Dart with a Mopar 360 crate motor. Alternator...

Swapped out the Chrysler starter for a mini; battery is in the trunk. Using a Ford solenoid in the trunk to cut the power during Run. Mark from MAD Electrical recommends installing a relay between the Ford solenoid and the starter to eliminate "solenoid chatter"; where the mini-starter solenoid...

From May - Sept, the Sierra foothills town of Auburn hosts a 2nd Friday car show where they block off downtown for cars and pedestrians. It's a great show; lots of cars, great car folks wanting to talk about their rides. Self policing, never seen an incident in the 4 years I've attended. Today...

Hey James, I just received my PST order and have a question about the LBJ. '68 Dart, 360 crate motor, disc brake conversion, BBP. The LBJ's that arrived are the correct p/n 10250 and 10251 for disc brakes, however they look much different from the ones I pulled off. The biggest diff is that...

The Dart has a Tremec 5 spd from Keisler Engineering with the hydraulic TO bearing. The past year or so I've dealing with a spongy clutch pedal - to the point that I couldn't shift into gear. I can turn off the engine, shift into 1st, restart and take off. The hydraulics would work OK when the...

I"m always on the lookout for another Dart; came across this CL post. 1970 Dodge Dart For Sale Or Photo Shoot

This weekend I'm swapping the 3.55 SG from the Dart into the Coronet. Both are 489 cases. The 'Net's 3.23's don't work with the Hughes cam and Dynamic high stall converter. And with the Tremec 5 spd the Dart needs steeper gears so I'm having a shop swap out the 3.23's for a 4.10/4.11 set...

Have a 440 Performer (not RPM) intake and Eddy 1406 carb for sale. Both were on my Coronet when I started the resto (CoronetDarter on FBBO). Eddy carb was running on the engine up to about a month ago when I swapped in an FiTech system. Asking $240 for the pair + shipping. Prefer to keep them...

For sale is a factory dual quad setup for the B engine. Intake manifold p/n is 1827899. The carbs are Carter AFB, not Edelbrock. The PO said the carbs were rebuilt but I'm not enough of a carb guru to substantiate. The setup is in excellent condition. Asking $400 OBO. Located in Lincoln, CA.

I just got the Pertronix Ingnitor III billet plug n play distrbutor and the FlameThrower III coil to replace the stock points/dizzy in my 440 - '69 Coronet. Do I need to upgrade the VR to a EI version? I've read posts that the post-69 VR is needed but when I talked to Pertronix tech, they said...

I have a 360 crate motor with an M1 single plane and Eddie 650 w/electric choke. The t-housing spung a leak so i removed the housing and had a friend true up the base at his machine shop. The t-housing is installed and leak free. However, while the housing was off I removed the throttle...

I've been a Mopar guy since I was a kid, grew up watching S & M in pro stock, Richard Petty, etc. And even though I really liked the A and E bodies, B bodies were my favorites; my first car was a '69 Charger R/T, SE. Owned it for twelve years until I sold it in 1990 while waiting for my first...
