sorry as I said been having internet issues that day. Asked my wife if by chance she had internet issues as well that day and she said all day, she even came home early that day ,as she is self employed.

Maybe interested if it doesn't sell before then. I checked , my pm's and nothing came in. Been having connection issues today for some reason. If you get the time and chance, send another pm.

Good show, May take my 75 dart sport to sell at the car corral , not sure yet if it don't sell before this event. To much to list , but would like to move it, Was on the street two yeas ago. Numbers matching except rear.

Thanks for the reply. I had always used regular racing slicks before as years ago it was a track only car, but this being a duel purpose car and there are so many manufactures to choose from has me a little confused. My track only car I always ran Mickeys and when I and the sport, I put a used...

So thought I would post recommendations on a duel purpose car as far as rear tires for street and race at the track occasionally as durability and traction both on and off the track ?

That sounds like a good time. Racing with friends then bench racing afterwards !

Just got off the phone with a friend of mine and he agreed, that speed costs money as he is building a bigger motor for next year, non Mopar, but it doesn't matter what one runs, to my thinking they all cost money and I don't care if one runs a Renault as long as we are friends and support each...

Agree with your 2 posts, I have discovered this as well, over the years. It's fun to go fast, but constancy wins out and keeping it simple mostly allows you to be there every week, when your running for points. I just considered running once the mood strikes me, being at a track every week...

Thanks for the encouraging words ! I had a dart sport in HS actually two, both 75's.Thinking of just doing this with the dart, I figure the only thing that would concern me is a breakage at the track and getting it and me home. One track is like 40 miles or so, the other is like 30. I have read...

That's kind of why I went to a modern muscle car, many years of turning wrenches has caught up to me. I will be 57 later this year and most forgot more than I can remember , LOL ! Not to mention other physical factors. Last season I just spectated when I did go. I got into motorcycles more than...

I agree, it's nice having a modern type of muscle car and my wife and I enjoy the challenger, we took it on a date night the other Friday night, The sound, tunes brought me back to funner days. I was kind of flabbergasted that I had to replace stuff just to have some fun now and then. I had to...

My swinger years ago ran normaly low 12's and was basically a stock rebuild as I kept it simple so I know exactly what you mean. I mostly got the headstart and as long as I cut a light and that car was very consistant, was second in points yearsago and only 20 points from being number 1. Even...

Well, since its still a numbers matching car I had shortshifted it at 4k and it ran low to mid 15's in the qrter, but I know if I raise the shift the shift points it would go faster. Butall stock right down to the manifolds, 360.

I took the dart off the road about two years ago and just trailered it, so cost wise I could put antique tags on it and insurance in case anything should happen going to and from the track, but once there, nothing and keep the challenger as a daily when needed. The dart is slower than my swinger...

I figured to step up to a modern day mopar muscle car and purchased a 2010 challenger ,but still have my dart sport that I run occasionally totally stock and slow. I had upgraded about two years ago to a 8/34 rear diff with a rebuilt 742 3.55 rear. did it as a duel purpose car street/ strip...

Thanks for the reply, but need pinion shims not spring.:D

Thanks may have to do that, another option.

Anyone here have a source for obtaining just shims for setting up pinion depth ? I would like to get locally, but haven't had any luck only through mail order and I'm no longer comfortable giving info over the net, Tried the various chain stores but no one stocks or can get a shim kit, only the...

I don't know of the earlier years of the A bodies but I got the bolt on's for my dart because they we're a few bucks cheaper because I'm cheap, but once I got them I welded them in anyways instead of drilling holes. My plans originally was to weld them in because of the risk of bolt elongations...

Welcome aboard! Good bunch of info on this site and the cool thing it's dedicated to the A Body. Not sure of the production numbers but their are a low production car. I have a 75 Dart Sport all numbers matching and what I've been able to find, both models are low production with the Dart being...

Thanks for all the replies. Years ago I had a hurst promatic shifter I bought used, only had to buy a new cable and I just put tape over the indicator because I didn't have the other indicator to show the shift indication for reverse pattern. On that shifter to go from first into reverse/park...

Not sure where to post this, either here or the race section, but here it goes. Can a reverse pattern manual valvebody be used in a stock linkage console equipped car. I know an after market shifter can use either, but considering going with either a reverse pattern or a fwd pattern instead...

I took my dart off the street at the end of August, got tired of paying insurance for it to sit. Being a bracket racer years ago and hitting the strip with car the end of the season ,all stock and hanging around with old friends was great. Not into the car show scene, tried that years ago with...

A lot of good points on this subject. My thoughts is once it's gone it's gone. I did a decent 73 roadrunner years ago, but it wasn't really what I wanted but had it for 5 years and enjoyed it. Got stupid I guess and sold it only to get another car. The 75 sport I have now I had to put a lot of...

Years ago I ran a pretty much stock 383 only .030 to clean up the bores and had a dynamic convertor for it and bracket raced it. It was a neutral bal. conv. This same conv. is going to be used behind a stock 360 and I just received a flexplate yesterday from century 440 on here to use this conv...

Getting some different answers, from chevy guys mostly, but my thoughts are a torque convertor should respond better from an engine that produces more torque. Am I wrong in thinking this ?

Thanks, will check it out, but believe the one I need is #10236, unless this one on Moparts is an older part number.

Well, looks like I will go ahead and get the flexplate instead of the weight kit. I didn't need it to be SFI approved that's why I was looking around for a used one or asked about the weight kits. I do like the thought of being able to use the convertor without the weights for other applications...

Could've explained it better, hands got quicker typing than the brain. What I meant was I haven't had any luck in finding a used B&M flexplate but through my research I found the weight kits. Not sure of the weights, but according to applications there is different weights for different...

Has anyone on here ever welded balance weights on a neutral balance convertor to use it on an ext. bal. motor. I have a good neutral bal. I would like to use on an ext. bal. motor. I haven't had any luck on a used B&M flexplate and found weights for half the price. I have a 220 amp mig welder to...
