Just swapped a 65 dart four speed into a 64 Valiant. 225 slant motors in both. The first time I shift from first to second - its like the shifter is hitting a brick wall - won't go into second at all. I can shift to third and its fine. Once the gears have been gone through once, I can shift...

I purchased a 64 valiant v100 a while back. The 225 motor has been totally redone with .30 over and a mild cam. It has an offenhauser dual carb intake with two 1-barrels. The car has amazing torque and runs really well. Drove it to the Charlotte show this past weekend - did really well on...

I've got an original 64 dart / 273 / 4 speed. It's a survivor car out of montana with about 115,000 miles. The motor runs great, but when really pushing the acceleration, I can feel a pretty strong vibration in the clutch pedal. The shifter feels fine. As good as the car runs, it doesn't...

I bought a set of o.e.m. 14" rims for my 64 dart. They are only 4" wide. Any ideas on how big a tire I can get away with? The tire manufacturers seem to limit it to a 185/75/14. I am hoping I can put something a little bigger on the car to improve the ride. thanks Dave
