    Erson Camshafts

    Any one but me have a hard time getting any information from Erson camshafts (site)? I have e-mailed them a couple of times. Seems they don't need my business. Maybe someone can suggest another camshaft maker that I can contact. I'll soon (I hope) be ready to put the slant six together.

    Front Brakes and Spindles

    I've got a "small" problem; maybe you can help! I have a slant six car with originally 9" front drum brakes. Last year, I obtained 10" brakes (I've changed out the shoes, wheel cylinders and hardware for new parts) on the backing plate. Today, when I went to install the backing plate on the...

    one lifter stuck and two bent push rods

    This is going to be a "round-a-bout" story that should get to my problem/question. Just the other day, I was working on my replacement slant six engine for the Dart. The plan was to change manifolds (both intake and exhaust) to accept two barrel and duals...respectively. Now this is an engine...

    Vacuum Guage Readings

    A previous,but related thread posted by Mullinax 95 on Compression test??? and Street Demon's reply about a leak-down-test got me thinking about another way of checking the health of an engine.

    Heavy duty leaf springs

    Have found two sets of leaf springs (not s/s) of late but was too late to get either set. Maybe by posting this "wanted" ad someone out there might have a set of good used ones he or she is willing to sell. Thanks for looking and have a very Merry Christmas
