Is anyone else sick and tired of having metric hardware put into the brake parts that are available? I can only find wheel cylinders with 7mm (headed and threaded) bleeder screws. Others that I find online generally don't list what the thread is. I just got stainless front hoses from Dr. Diff...

I have a 650 Speed Demon. It used to be the primary carburetor for my car, and after getting tired of screwing with it, I changed it out. Since I've been getting some quarantine projects done I decided I'd try and get this thing reset to factory and see if I can at least make it a...

Quick, stupid question from someone new to an electric fuel pump. I have the timing cover off my 340 to replace the gaskets, and I just put an electric fuel pump on the car, eliminating the mechanical pump. At this point, I no longer need the fuel pump eccentric and would like to remove it. I...

Long story short, while putting the flanged bearing in the column and persuading the steering shaft through said bearing, I broke the shear pins, so the shaft collapsed. I need to know what the correct OAL is for a power steering shaft for a 73 Duster. I saw a measurement of 36 3/8" somewhere...

Finally got the nerve to tackle removing the shifter tube from my steering column and while I have it torn down waiting to be painted and reassembled, I was wondering if there are any components in there that I can leave out. The car is wired as a race car, so it has no turn signals, hazards...

After getting to the bottom of the last issue, I yanked the carb off so I could reset it and go from there to make sure the idle is dead right next time. When trying to set the idle transition slots to the .020", the primary went just fine. However, I can have the secondary curb idle screw...

Engine: 340, .484 mopar cam, 650 speed demon, edelbrock ld340 intake, headers, x heads. Trans: 727 with 3200 stall converter, standard valve body. Car is idling at about 2000 when in park, but put it in gear, and it idles nice and crisp at 850. When trying to accelerate, if I go hammer time on...

Hi all! I'm in need of a hinge for the glove box door and the latch that bolts to the dash for it to catch on. Doesn't have to be pretty, just functional. It will all get painted before it goes on the car anyway, and if the glove box ever opens, it will be an accident. Looking to spend about...

Recently found that this doesn't fit my Duster (see my last thread :oops:)...been sitting here a while and I just repainted it a couple days ago to put it on my car, then found out that it's wrong. I was told on here by some real helpful guys that this is a 73 Dart bumper, so it may fit 73-76...

Can someone please tell me what the heck I'm missing here? Trying to mount the bumper to my 73, with 73 brackets, and a 73 bumper, it is sticking out about 4" too far, and refuses to get tight against the body. I attached a couple of pictures to show where it is sitting, and they are terrible...

Posting for my father. 73 Dart Sport $4395. Original 6 car, switched to 318 with schumacher kit Small bolt wheels Original Air Car, no compressor Bucket Seats out of a plymouth Sundance Pictures at the CL link, I can take all you want, but talk with him first. Price is negotiable...

So I ordered a Redline Gauge Works dash blank for the Duster, and it arrived today. I was somewhat disappointed when I picked it up and felt its thickness, or lack thereof. My question is that with its lack of reinforcement, will it actually be able to hold up to repeated drag strip launches...

Ok, so I am at the point where I need to act like I have never learned anything about engines, tuning, etc. My car has an issue and I cannot for the life of me figure it out. Specs: 340, X heads, Edelbrock LD340 intake, 650 Speed Demon, 3200 stall converter, 727, 8 3/4 with a 3.91 Sure...

Ok, so I need a new converter, one to get the car on the track and last a year at least (hopefully more since the car isn't all that fast), but I need a looser converter than what I have now. I was looking at the Hughes 3000 stall and was wondering what experiences, good or bad, people have...

Just like the title says, last night I went out and bought a 2005 Dodge Dakota ST with a 4.7L V8 and 5 speed automatic. This truck runs very smooth, rides great, and still leaves 2 black strips of rubber wherever I want it to. After having it for one day and about 100 miles, I can say its...

Ok...so today I had the car running and decided to see if it would move under its own power. So I backed it out of its spot in the driveway and onto the street, where I placed it down into 1st gear on the 727. I let off the brake, but the only way to get the car to move at all is to give it...

I hate to do this kind of stuff, but I was just wondering what other A-body people think my car should be able to pull off on the 1/4 based on my combo. 73 Duster Fiberglass Hood with Dual snorkel scoop All the seats (both front buckets, rear bench) No carpet yet 15x4" Weld Pro Stars with...

And got the purple hornies mounted. The car actually sits like it has some rear suspension now, and it sounds alot quieter considering they are just header mufflers (bolted straight to the collector). Here's pics, first one is of the new stuff I got today (3" studs for front, race lug nuts...

Got the car running again tonight...took a new carburetor to do it, but I'm happy it runs...video is about 8 mb. http://duster.dhmotorsports.net/dusterlives.wmv

Hi, I'm spencer from St. Petersburg, FL, and just found this site today. I have 3 A-bodies at my house, a 73 Duster (mine) with a 68 MY 340 in it (slightly warmed :mrgreen: ), a 73 Dart Sport slant six about to be a 318, and my dad's 69 Barracuda drag car with a 440 (gonna get rebuilt soon)...
