Intake and exhaust manifold for the 225 slant six. We ended up deciding to go with aftermarket intake and exhaust on my son's 1969 Dart. So these originals from the motor are up for sale. Asking $125. No cracks anywhere. Left them mated together as we wirebrushed, degreased, and painted them...

My 1969 Dodge Dart got disc brakes installed that made me need to get different bolt-pattern wheels. These are the stock ones I had to remove, which worked fine with the stock drum brake setup. Five wheels all with mounted/balanced tires (the full-size spare tire from the trunk is included)...

Okay, this is weird. I finally drove my son’s project car (’69 Dart, slant 6, A904, 7.25 rear) on the freeway for the first time, and the engine RPMs were waaaay lower than what we’d expected. If I calculate the 2.76:1 axle ratio and 1.00:1 3rd gear ratio and 25.7” overall tire diameter...

I was hell-bent on acquiring 16” wheels for the 1969 Dart Custom I’ve been helping my son restore. In my humble opinion, sixteens are the best size : unlike 14s and 15s, the tire selection is enormous, and really, seventeens (or bigger) on a classic sedan would just look…kinda dorky. Two-door...

Hi folks. Just wanted to share, so that others could possibly use this information. I recall a few months back trying to learn more about what starter motor to select for my son's /6 build. We purchased Doug Dutra's latest version of his cast iron exhaust manifolds, and obviously the...

Retrofitting EFI into a slant6-powered '69 Dart has been mostly fun, but also a little frustrating. Frustrating due to some unintended consequences, but I hope that others can use this information to learn from and maybe apply to their own projects. The biggest change (other than the 2" hole...

An unexpected father-son project kicked off this summer, fueled by my 18-year-old son’s purchase of his first car: a 1969 Dart Custom Sedan with a slant six. He had been eyeing a neighbor’s ’66 Dart 270 sedan for many months, and just simply loved the clean, classic looks. He also wanted a...

Hello all. I have yanked out my sons's '69 Dart /6, and we've disassembled the block. Good times! However, when pulling the crank pulley/harmonic balancer from the crankshaft snout, the rubber ring gave way, thereby removing only the outer half of the pulley. We went ahead and used the...

I have been spending quite some time on this site since my 18-year old son bought his first car about a month ago (1969 Dart Custom Sedan with the /6), and I gotta say that there is an impressive wealth of knowledge about these Mopars on this site! I'm in my mid-40s and have had a few run-ins...
