    V8 to Slant Six swap: Sacrilege to must, but what would need to be done to have it happen?

    I'm still keen on getting a manual, either 3 or 4 speed, for my duster but I'm pretty sure that buying another car of comparable condition that already has a manual in it is as cheap or cheaper than gathering all the parts needed to do the swap. What happens if I find a v8 duster with a manual...

    [WANTED] 74 Slant Six throttle linkage with transmission kick-down *complete*

    The complete throttle linkage with the kick-down for the transmission for a 1974 slant six and more specifically one used with a Holley 1920. I got one from a fellow here but it was for a different year and doesn't fit. To stress it again: please have one that is complete and if nearly so tell...

    Slant six only runs while starter running

    To be more precise: When I turn the key over and switch on the starter the car starts right up but will only remain running as long as the key is kept turned/ignition switch on. I have one suspect but I'm not going to any conclusions just yet. The kid I bought this car from wired in an push...

    Driving the AlCan in a '74 Duster - What do I do to prepare my car?

    Hello FABO! I've posted a few threads here and there about stuff I've been working on but it's high time I start asking the big questions and garner the sage wisdom of the Mopar Elders. I'm planning to embark on something that could only be possible when you're in your mid twenties and have...

    Removing all emissions control/vacuum systems: Good or bad idea?

    Still plugging along on Pinkie, my '74 225 Duster. I live in California and the car was, from what I can tell, a CA market car and it came with the full outfit of emissions control systems that new CA cars had to have in the 70's. Thing is now all these systems aren't needed anymore because the...

    Transplanting '74 factory A/C from car to car (is it a good idea?)

    Hey FABO, I've looked through the manuals I have ready anything about installing or removing the a/c system on the 6 cyl. cars. There are plenty of warnings about not disconnecting refrigerant lines unless it's been drained first. Is transplanting a factory a/c set up from one 6 cyl. to...

    Need info/the part: 225 1bbl throttle bracket linkage with kickdown

    Currently 'Pinkie', my 74 Duster, has a cludged together throttle bracket that theoretically lets the car move under it's own power. Picture of that is the first picture. Specifics of the car: '74 Duster with 225 with 1bbl Holey 1920 and an A-904 for the trans. I'm looking for info on and...

    What are these holes at the bottom of the A pillars?

    Hey, here's my first question to everybody! I'm looking at the bottom of the A pillars and I'm seeing two of what look to me like screw holes. Theres no trim pieces around them so I don't know what they did and I don't see them on any other period cars I've seen pictures of. Can someone tell me...

    All the way from Berkeley California

    Hello one and many, I'm Greg and I'm joining here from Albany, the town on the north border of Berkeley CA. Here she is, a '74 Duster with a 225. She's a joint venture between a friend of mine and myself. We plan on turning her into a road tripping machine! Her name's Pinkie.
