Hey everyone, I have a jaguar xjs with a 350/700r4 in it that is roached, it had blown head gaskets and sparkly oil. I happen to have two good 5.9 magnums and a 46rh sitting at the farm, and my question is since the two engines are similar in size and mounting location, is there anyone that...

Hey everyone I bought a trans for my 71 fury and I need to start accumulating parts for the install so I need to know if this is the correct yoke or if not where I can get the right one

I was on my local marketplace and noticed these heads. They don't look like stock remans, or at least none that I've ever seen, but they do look an awful lot like engine quest heads, because they have a very similar chamber from pics I've seen. The brand is enginetech, but I think they might...

Hey guys, I've not posted here in a while, but I have a question I think you can help me with. I'm looking at building a 400 I have and I'll go ahead and say it's not going into an A body, a C body is the target for this one, so, my question might be a bit unique in this circumstance. Have no...

So, I happen to be lucky enough to have a choice of Mopar projects. I've got a basically original slant 6 65 Dart GT and a 69 slant 6 Valiant 200. The reason I've posted this in suspension is my intent for the car, I'm going to make it handle. Either car will get some variant of LA engine based...

So after years of trying to figure out exactly what the hell to do with the 65 Dart GT my grandfather bought some time ago, it was brought to my attention that I already had an A body in order to start the pro touring A body I always wanted to do. Regardless of whatever else this may entail(such...

I have a set of 340 heads floating around one of the many barns here that are still in the plastic and have never been opened(bought from chrysler many years ago). After years of posting here, I finally have secured a drag car to race this coming summer. It has a 360 with a Stealth intake, 750...

I got a 72 Duster a few months back, but due to 2 feet of snow haven't been able to get anything done. I want to get this car to the point of a summer daily, but one problem is holding me back. The ***king brakes on this thing. The master cylinder was replaced by the previous owner, and...

Hey everyone, I recently drug a 72 Gold Duster back to the house and the 2 barrel is leaking from every seal and the gas looks orange. I have a 340 and 360 intake laying around, so I figured that I could throw one of those on there to get it running right. I know a guy that has a few 4...

I'm looking for a 383, 400, 413, 426, or a 440 to start a cheap build on. I'm building a 63 wedge car for my father as a cancer battle present. He's always wanted a big block powered 4 speed 63, so I'm looking for engines to start a build on. I have some 340-360 parts I could trade, short blocks...

Hey guys, after a long foray into imports and Chevys, I'm back to Mopars. (Ended up with a Stealth Twin Turbo and a Caprice police interceptor, Caprice is awesome as a DD). But, I have a couple of quick questions, I'm going to start with drag racing at the local strip with some friends. My...

Hey all. I'm daily driving a 84 Pontiac. I have a problem. Whenever I am trying to accelerate onto the highway, my car will bog down so bad it will almost cut off. According to the odd intake pressure sensor, it's not even half throttle, so this doesn't fit the normal quadrabog criteria. I can...

So I have a 63 Belvedere sitting in a field that I can pull parts from. It originally had a 225, but it has a 318 poly in it now. If the rear end was changed to a V8 rear end, could I use it on my Valiant or should I look for a newer 8 1/4?

Well, I'm deciding to finally put some oomph in my valiant, so I'm looking for a 318 or a 360, 360 preferably but I'll take what I can get. Any year, but I'm on a budget so I need at least a decent runner or something that spins by hand. As for transmission, just PM me with what you've got...

Hey all, first post here in a while, but, I have reached the point to where I am sick of the useless 145 hp of the slant 6 and its almost a certainty that I will move up to a 360. I had considered selling the valiant and buying any number of other cars, most notably, a Mitsubishi Eclipse GT, a...

I need a shift handle for a 62 Dart. It's a late 60s Chrysler column, if that makes a difference. Thanks, Josh

http://www.ark666y.com/history1.htm Found this while browsing last night. Worth a read, not necessarily because it's true, but because it's interesting, or at least to me it was. There are times I swear my Valiant is like this...

My Valiant's engine is officially toasted(kinda, couple bent rods, a trashed oil pump, and an almost non functional distributor, AND IT STILL RUNS!!), so I need to find another one. Anyone have one they'd be willing to give away or sell? I'm looking for runners obviously, if it is low mile or...

My friends and I are looking to get into drag racing, but none of us have a solid car, so we're trying to purchase one. We need a solid car, not something totally rust free but it needs floors. Driveline components are not a requirement though a definite bonus. We are willing to travel up to 200...

So, I think I'm just going to stay with the slant in my Valiant for right now and work on a 318 on the side since those are pretty cheap here. What do you guys think a 318 with 340 heads, intake, and this cam http://www.summitracing.com/parts/cca-20-243-4/overview/make/dodge would make...

Hey everyone, the other day while stumbling in the barns on my family's property, I came across the gold mine my dad built up of LA parts. I found a set of 340 heads(still in plastic!) and 5 or 6 360/340 intakes for 4 barrels. I wanted to put something a little hotter in my Valiant for a while...

Some of you may know that my Valiant died during the summer on a trip. It's now time to try and get the thing roadworthy again, so I have an oil pump and a felpro gasket set to replace the valve cover seal. I just have a couple of questions. 1) Are there any special procedures to getting the oil...

So, I don't know if this is exactly Kosher, but, well, I have a Pontiac(:wack:) that seems to want to make all sorts of electrical gremlins apparent. I'm posting here because the people on here don't seem to be as big of douches as the guys on most Chevy forums. I'm ready to ask anyone and...

Hey everyone, I'm new here, though not new to old cars. I've been around Mopars since birth pretty much. Anyway, I got a 69 Valiant as a first car a few months ago, and I need some help with it. It's always made noise(lifter noise and the clunk going from park to reverse), but now it's making...
