    Does anyone make carb tags?

    Just curious if there’s someone or a company that makes carburetor tags. Looking for one and seems like it’d be easy to make, maybe not enough people care about such a little detail. Thanks

    10” rear drum questions

    I have some questions, may be dumb to some. I have a 1969 Dodge Dart swinger with 340 and 8 3/4 rear end with small bolt pattern, 5x4. From what I can tell I have 10x2 1/4 for the front and I from literature I think the rears are 10x1 3/4. Do both front and rear drums the same size? I can’t...

    How important is the oil slinger?

    So last night I put the engine and transmission in the car to realize this morning I forgot to put the oil slinger on. I really don't want to pull the harmonic balancer, water pump, and timing cover if I don't have to. Any thoughts? If it is crucial I will do it. Thanks

    340 motor mount question

    this may be a dumb question, but do I have these motor mounts on correctly? Do they go behind the two bolt tabs like I have them?

    Is it safe to use this timing cover?

    This is off my 1969 dart, the corrosion from the radiator fluid has left the wall thickness a little over 1/8" at its thinnest part. Am I going to be okay using the provided paper gasket? Any suggestions?

    Can someone tell me where these go?

    Dumb of me not to pay attention to this, but removed engine and transmission and these came from somewhere. I'm starting to reassemble the car and need to know where these go. Thanks in advance.

    Cam suggestions

    i know I'm probably beating a dead horse by asking this question, but I want a cam that can be used with stock everything on a 340 swinger motor. I don't want anything crazy, just a little bump in performance. Will Comp cams xe268 work? If not does anyone know the correct specifications on a...

    Making my Dart road trip worthy

    Hi everyone, I've got a few questions about what I should do to my Dart to make it road trip worthy. I want to take my car on the Hotrod Power Tour, or at least a leg or two of it, and I am not sure what should be looked at and replaced to take on such a journey. My Dart is a 1969 340...

    Carter AVS secondary spring adjustment

    Hey everyone, I am trying to figure out how to adjust the secondary throttle blade spring without having to remove the two brass screws and blade. I can't find anything about the Carter AVS on how to adjust it, but I find a lot on the Edelbrock AVS. The pictures look similar but they...

    Hey everyone, I have a 1969 dart swinger and my steering box is leaking. I have the box removed and I have a seal replacement kit. Is it easy to change the seals by myself as I have never done something like this? If anyone has done this before and can give me any tips I would greatly...

    I keep breaking rocker arm bolts, help please!

    Why am I having trouble torqueing down the rocker arm bolts? Its a 340, original x heads ( have been cleaned and magnafluxed) and I'm using the original bolts. I oil the bolts and start torqueing at a lower torque value and work my way up to 30ft/lbs. I've broken two off in the drivers side...

    Cylinder head question....

    This may be a dumb question, but I'm going to ask it anyway....Does it matter which cylinder head goes on which side of the motor? I took the cylinder heads off to have hardened valve seats put in, but after the estimate and possible problems that might happen to them, I decided not to go...

    340 head bolt question...

    Okay, so I'm an idiot. I pulled the heads off my 340 motor last summer to have hardened valve seats put in, after getting the estimate I decided not to and just put them back on. My problem is I didn't label any bolts for puting them back on. I noticed that the new head bolt kits have...
