Picked up a Dart wagon on Monday. Been wanted a Valiant or Dart wagon for years. They are hard to find. This one is factory 273 with factory air! Runs and drives great, and has interior that is awesome and doesn't even need anything but cleaned up. Planning on doing a pro street type deal, and...

I have a housing that appears to be out of an early B body. Its 44 inches from spring pad center to spring pad center, and about 54 1/4 inches from flange to flange with the backing plates gone. Looking to use this under my Gremlin bracket car, and have a question. Are the axle bearings the...

Who makes a deep pan for a LA small block that is rear sump? I know these are for trucks and vans, but I am putting the engine in an AMC Gremlin and it is a front steer system. Thanks

Dont ask me how, but I have ended up with a decent 74 Gremlin. For $200 I wasn't just going to leave it there for someone else to buy. Want to make a little bracket car out of it. Something that could be built on a budget and go low 7's in the 1/8th. At first I was thinking that I would pick up...

Wanted to see what some of you are running for solid roller lifters. Application is a stroked LA small block. I was running a set of Comp solid rollers. Cant remember the part number. Ran them for two full race seasons, and started noticing that I was having to tighten up the valve lash a...

Hey guys, Got the factory pedal in my 71 dart, and have a Lokar cable and mount. My butterflies in the carb are not opening fully before the pedal hits the floor. Heres the deal. The part of the pedal that the cable slides into is all the way against the firewall when everything is hooked up...

I'm just about done sorting out my Volare wagon bracket car after converting it to methanol. Was having a hard time staying green because of the car moving so much harder than before. Played around adjusting the car on friday test and tune to try to keep it in the beams a little longer...

Been running my Dart and my Volare wagon on E85 the last two years. Won the track championship last year using both cars, so I cant say anything negative about E85. Its been good to me, and I plan to still run it on the Dart. I had an 830cfm E85 carb on the wagon. When I bought the car it...

Guys, got a question for those with experience with either of these cams. Rebuilding my 452 in my 67 Belvedere. I'm putting it back on the street, and have mad a few small changes. It now has 3.73 gears in the rear with a 27inch ET Radial tire. Has a 727 in it, and will be running the...

Only Mopar that races in the no box class at our track. Points were tight all year, but pulled away over the last two races. Out of the last four races, I went to 3 finals and won two of them. First championship for me. Never had bracket raced until 5 years ago, and have been working hard at...

Not an A body, but cool anyway. Took my 78 Volare wagon off the street and dedicated it to being a true footbrake car to use at some big money footbrake races and another local track that wont let me run the dart because of the 2 step/transbrake. Best in street/strip trim was low 7.30's in...

I've always spent countless hours prepping and taping up the inside of the car when the time came to paint the cages in my cars. Then getting inside and spray bombing with rattle can wheel paint. It always turned out nice, but scratched off really easy from climbing over the door bars. So, I...

...... we may just win a race or two this year in the no box class. First time in the car since November. Tried a different carb for most of the test and tune. Never could get it where I wanted it. So, before test and tune was over, I put the old carb on and made 2 passes 45 minutes...

I think most guys know what these are. They are to my knowledge the only factory big block heads that came with a closed chamber design. only available in the 1967 model year. If that info is wrong feel free to correct me. Anyway, I've ended up with a nice set that has had some decent port...

I just want to see what everyones experiences have been with using collector extensions on the headers. What have you found on the dyno or better yet on the race track? Discuss any testing done using different lengths, or even using no collectors at all. Just thought this could be very...

I've always run SS springs on my cars with good success. my dart was set up as follows. SS springs with extra clamps on the front segments. adjustable pinion snubber FOR INSURANCE ONLY. the snubber was set 2 1/2 inches from the floor just to save the u joint if something went wrong and the rear...

after giving one away 2 races ago. went all rookie in the finals 2 races ago by taking too much finish line after killing the guy on the tree. broke out by .002, and had plenty of room. the next week I lost at 3 cars. however, this week was a different story. the air changed over 1,000 ft from...

short run down. at a gas station in my Volare wagon yesterday and this guy comes over to ask about the engine because it "sounded awesome". I tell him stroked 340 and he says he has a 340. he said he thought it was a 72 model but some guys had come to look at buying it and passed because they...

I posted this in the racers forum as well for the guys who may not visit this page very often. so, if you have read it there then I apologize. short run down. friends son had a duster bracket car with a 7.00 360 in it. he hurt the motor, and they were looking for a stock motor just to keep...

short run down. friends son had a duster bracket car with a 7.00 360 in it. he hurt the motor, and they were looking for a stock motor just to keep him racing until they rebuild. I had a junkyard magnum from a 94 truck with 121,000 miles on it. told him I would lone it to him until they got...

and I'm happy as can be. I know its not an A-body, but thought some of you guys might appreciate it. its got 3.73 gears and is a street car. launch pic was took with those gears and on street tires. it ran a 7.45 in the eigth mile at 95mph. I wont fill up a whole page with details unless you...

building a street strip 72 duster and plan on using a hurst quarter stick shifter. Im thinking of building my own console around the shifter. just curious if any of you guys have a custom center console and some pics of it. thanks

http://www.700r4l60e.com/store/catalog/TransGo-727-904-Street-Strip-Full-Manual-p-75.html looking to do away with the kickdown linkage on my street strip duster. just wondered if anyone has had any experience with this kit, and how you liked the performance? seems like a lot of bang for the...

who have you guys found to be the cheapest on a complete set of EQ magnum heads?

looking to use one in a street strip car since it takes a great deal more horse power to operate a 727 vs the 904. car should end up with about 400-425 horse power. for the guys who have "been there, done that", what is the minimum that needs to be done to the 904 to handle that kind of power...

would like to know who is running one of these in their a body, what kind of specs, and what kind of performance you have gotton from it. I have read about what is required to swap one over in place of a LA engine and think I have that covered. here is the idea that I am playing with. use...

anyone running one of these in their street car? if so what converter, heads, rockers, and gear are you running? This is what the guys at Comp suggested that I use in my 340 Duster. its gonna be a street/strip deal, but mostly street. just curious from the guys that run this cam as to...

well, since the 71 Dart bracket car is finished and doing well, its time to get back on the project that I was working on before I stopped to start the Dart. I decided to spend the extra coin and find a solid car to start with on this project. long story short I found it while searching Ebay...

long story short, I have one heck of a nice duster sitting in the shop without an engine. I started the 340 build and quit on it to finish up my Dart race car about 2 years ago. well, now that its done I am going back to the duster. I have kinda changed plans for the car, so a change in...

I dont know what to think of it. my car is running mid to high 6.80's on the e85. it has been 6.81 on 110 gas. they want egt readings at around 1250-1280. mine is at 1305-1320 and if I try to go richer it smokes all the way down the track and runs 6.90's. on a positive note I left it on the...
