Hello, working on 68 dart First time pulling out a 383 engine from the top with a 727 engine left in car. I searched thru all the posts but didn't see any tricks or methods on how to break free torque converter bolts by yourself as the engine spins. I suspect I could hold a socket on crank and...

Hello We picked up a used never been painted 6 -pak hood like new condition but someone had previously drilled hood for pins. Why they drilled hood I’m not sure as where you attach the hinges still had a rivet in it I believe from the factory for shipping to keep metal insert from moving. I...

Hello, Father son project in the works. This is a running driving car now 383, 3000 stall so we are told, 391 rear gears mini tubbed. I know this is a loaded question with lots of directions but could we gather parts to build something around a 509 purple shaft cam or wilder idle on pump gas...

Hello I lost spark coming out of coil tower wire to ground. Been temperamental driving car shutting off randomly but finally died at my house permanently it seems. I have the mopar performance coil p 4876732 now with orange box. I’m measuring .7 ohms primary but my secondary is coming in at...

Previous owner did install 383 was a six with 73 disc brakes. I went to replace my idler arm with moog K7042. And when I compare them to what I took out the angles are not the same. If I install it in the car it makes the center link hit the oil pan. The one I took out doesn’t hit the oil pan...

Hello I have a 400 engine we picked up tearing it apart trying to teach my son the four stroke operation. I worked on Buick engines for 27 years so just learning the Mopar engines myself. I’m used to the timing dots being at 6 o’clock for cam with the crank dot at noon and distributor at #one...

Hello, As I bought this car used I'm still learning about it. I ordered rock auto blower motor for a non ac car AC 15-81242 as my motor spins really tight and a new heater core as I have not had heat ever, it's been bypassed. I know the picture didn't look right but I took a chance and ordered...

Hello, I previously had a thread going "383 intake gasket and valve cover choice" but new issue so starting this thread. Just finished putting new intake gasket, oil/filter, new valve covers and a different carb. Two rides later lost oil pressure, was able to stop engine - just backed out of...

Hello I didn’t set this up as I bought the car with the work done. It’s a 383/727 with Lokar kick down. I know it has a 3000 stall converter and a trans go pack I believe. I’m trying to figure out how to make an adjustment to shift into third gear sooner. It wont shift into third until about...

Hello, I'm working on my newly acquired dart over the winter. It has an 8 3/4 rearend in it shortened from a b-body donor by previous owner. I noticed with the car on jack stands so the rear end is hanging by the super stock springs only that the rear axle rubber flex brake line is pretty...

Hello, I'm new to the dart world and have been researching this board a lot lately. I currently have a father /son driver consisting of a pretty much stock 383 auto/ 3000 stall 727,391 8 3/4, manual steering. This was a factory 6 cylinder car, besides the rear suspension springs moved in, frame...

Hello, I picked up a father son project 1968 dart 383/727 transmission. Original 6 cyl auto car with console. The reverse lights don't work because the console mounted switch is broken. After surfing the web it appears this is almost $ 150.00 to replace with a factory switch which is crazy $...
