    Fan clutch and Fan

    I want to replace the old windshield wiper motor assembly in my 68 Dart with something that takes up a little less room around the distributor. I installed a MSD e-curve distributor and the plug wire terminals are only about 1/2" away from the wiper motor assembly. When I install the plug wire...

    Installing engine

    Hey guys. Thinking about installing my small block in my 68 Dart from the bottom. I have the K member out now as I am notching it for oil pan clearance.

    Question about spider

    Help!!! In a 360 magnum engine, does the spider that holds the hydraulic roller alignment yokes in place have a washer or short spacer between the spider and the block? Or does it just bolt directly to the 3 bosses in the block? Anyone have the answer for me? Thanks for any help.
