It's a little bittersweet after all that work on the 67 but I couldn't pass up the Super Bee. The Dart went as part of the deal. We still have A bodies in the shop but I'm without now.

I know it's not an A body but this rolled through the shop today... That's a sweet ride!

Can anyone tell me what's the best choice for an aftermarket sway bar? I've read about them but there's conflicting results. I need a 'kit' as the car never had one... and stock stuff isn't available around here. Is it Hellwig or Hotchkis and that's it? Pricey stuff (I'm in Canada). It's a stock...

A friend is about to embark on his 70 Dart project. Cam selection is coming soon. Please share a sound clip of your combo if you have one. Any info you have too like engine, cam and exhaust. I'll go first... 408, Lunati 704, Flowmaster 50.

Unplanned, just worked out this way... we're celebrating with the maiden voyage! It's been a long 2 months in the making... can't wait!

I started the conversion a couple weeks ago now and thought I should share some pics. Made some frame connectors. Thanks to those who answered my questions here in the forums. Looks like the car had done a Duke boys jump (or ran over a rock). Had to fix a few uglies back there. Front...

Little bit a' Dart heaven...

Just finished up my frame connectors. Thought I'd share the results with those of you thinking about doing your own... go for it! All done cost about $40 and a days work... and $25 for beer (that my 'helpers' drank while I worked... haha)! I opted for 1.5" x 3" x .125 stock. .125 on the...

Just thought I'd share this in case someone's looking for ideas... I used to stick decals on my toolbox or car (as a teen) or whatever but I found a way to put them up without them being stuck there forever. It's taken many years to collect them all and I don't want to lose them. I picked up...

My original oil filter adapter bolt has stress lines around the oil holes like it was over-torqued. I ordered a Mancini replacement and was a little surprised to see this... Is that normal or did this bolt miss it's final machining process or something? ?

One day I was pushing my son to the store and we went by a woman pushing her daughter... in the identical stroller. I apologized to the little man and told him I'd make it right. This is what happened... 1/2" erw tube, used a plumbers tubing bender, old folks walker front wheels, cart rears. The...

I'm about to do a major overhaul of my Dart and I'm not sure what wheels / look I want yet. It's going from sbp to bbp and I didn't have any wheels to put on it until I figure it out. So I found a set of inexpensive rallyes. Wire brush, 80 and 120 grit got me here. Plastikote 2 heavy coats of...

Are the slant 6 pumps different than the V8 ones? The top mounting holes look the same? Anyone have a part number or picture of that bracket I need? Collecting parts for 6 months and I'm almost there... down to the little things... Thanks

Can you order a factory replacement cover for these or is this a custom job?

I never got pulleys with the motor so I'm starting from scratch. I got a couple today, a lower 2 groove that lines up with the alternator and a single groove wp but the diameter is too big and the offset is wrong anyways... From the center of the groove to wp face is 2.5" What does the...

My good friend and I are closing in on retirement... so we started a 'hot rod' garage a year ago now. Up to this point we've just been working a few nights a week on these projects but this will definitely be a full time gig when the time comes. Word has gotten out and we have a growing wait...

I already bought one of these Holley 12-360-11 mechanical fuel pumps. Of course I just read some article on how the flow and pressure drops off with rpm... now I'm not sure I have the right one. Is this enough pump for a 470 hp 408? I need to put in a filter and I can plumb it in 1/2" line...

Heater hoses. Sadly, we need them. The plumbing isn't an issue, it's the looks. I'm not sure why Eddy decided to put the 3/8" hole on the wrong side. I was going to drill and tap the 1/4" hole larger but I thought I'd check in to FABO before I do. How have you air gap people plumbed these? The...

I've read that an a-body combo with 500 torque does not benefit much at all from running a low gear on the street. I have a set of 3.9's but I was thinking 3.5's would be better... now a friend has offered me a set of 3.23's. Guessing the tires will be around 26.5". Is this true? I can't decide...

First pull... results with video. Going in this... should wake it up a little :)

It's behind a 408 in a Dart. I'm gonna race a couple times but mainly street use on some sticky tires (I'll be hard on it). Advice says to use a 904 for less parasitic drag. I agree. Question is what do I need to do to the 904 so it will survive? 2800-ish converter. Thanks

Will this fit under the hood of a 67 Dart? It looks tall...

Assistance required! I have some lazy fat Chevy pals that are lickin their greasy chops for me to get my Dart finished so they can kick my ***. (lol... good friends). It can't happen though... they brag too much. My engine is almost ready for the dyno tune and I need some opinions now on how to...

Love it when things start coming together. At the machine shop today... thought I'd share some pics. Hopefully have the swap all buttoned up by spring.

For clearance I need a scoop on my 67 Dart. Any recommendations on a good quality set-up... hemi... 6 pack or ? It's getting a 408 727 swap... probably painted black wheels...

I have an air gap rpm and a quickfuel HR 750 for my 408. The buterflies are too close to the center divider on the intake... like they'll rub on it if the carb isn't perfectly centered. I see conflicting articles on what to do. Right now I think I'm going to machine the center down a 1/2" and...

I've been collecting parts for my winter project. 67 Dart slant 6 car going to a 360 (408) / 727 / 8.75 (no tubs). I have the brake conversion and suspension figured out... about the engine though; So far I have a scat kit, block's been squared up, zero deck... compression will be around 10.5...

Can anyone tell me who makes these?

We're putting this car together for some friends. It was started and then sat for 22 years in their garage due to an illness in the family. All the work has been done in the past 7 weeks. There's been 2 of us, 3 sometimes so it's gone pretty quick. We were delayed a couple times waiting for...
