    Hood scoop

    Hey every one I am about to put a hemi scoop on my hood for my 71 dart swinger, was just curious if any one has the dimensions of its placement so I can make sure I’m putting it on right. Or is this more of a just measure to get it centered kinda thing since hemi scoops weren’t stock on 71s...

    Electronic Ignition Question.

    Currently in the process of setting up Holley sniper on my 360. I am using the electronic conversion kit from Mancini racing with the Mopar ECU. Is that considered to be a capacitive discharge ignition system? I know MSD boxes are but I can’t really find what those stock ECU boxes are. Thanks...

    Dougs headers

    So I just installed the driver side header on my 360 in my 71 dart. So the only thing the headers are touching are the trans cooler lines…would the remedy for this just be bending the lines in some new directions? Also the tubes don’t touch my power steering box but are close. Is anyone had...

    Both questions are in regard to my 1971 dart swinger 360 w/factory ac. 1) when I switch the panel to defrost it continues to blow out the vents. From what I can tell I don’t have a broken vacuum line and ideas on where to start chasing this rabbit hole? 2) how do I remove the vent box (see...

    Does any one have a good lead on power steering pulleys? Mine is bent and there doesn’t seem to be an after market for these. It’s for a federal pump on a small block engine with AC in a 71 Dart. Mine seems to be bent just so slightly in one part...

    Rear end suggestions

    Hey everyone. I think the rear end on my 71 dart is giving out so I’m looking into possible replacements. Any one have any suggestions on a good company to go with for gears? It’s going in a 71 swings with a 360/904 combo that will be used more for a cruiser, but I do like how it goes when I put...

    Oil leak.

    So I recently put a rebuilt 360 in my 71 dart and noticed a oil leak coming from the back of the engine. What’s weird about this leak though, is has only happened once. I am pretty sure it happened after the longest this engine has run since I’ve installed it, but that’s it just that once. Is it...

    Wiper Issues

    So I’m just getting my 71 dart on the road again after a long time coming. Last night after I put the wipers back on, I saw that my wipers come on when I start the car and then stop In the up position or half way up the windshield. Sometimes they are responsive to the switch enough to return to...

    741 Case

    So this may be a dumb question but hey let’s give it a go. My 71 dart came with a open 741 8 3/4 rear end. I’ve been looking around for a suregrip for it and lots of places want say stuff like 35 spline count. Was there a standard spline count that came from the factory for this setup? Or do I...

    Oil pan.

    So I just picked up a 360 engine that came out of an rv. Noticed the pan seems to have the hump of the pan and the opposite position of what the 318’s was. What oil pan do I need to put this engine in 71 dart that used to have a 318? Would I be able to use my 318’s pan?

    318 to 360 Swap

    Hey every one it looks like I am going to be doing a 318 to a 360 swap in my 71 Dart Swinger. I saw somewhere on here that I would need a new flex plate because of going from internally balanced engine to an external one. Is there anything else that I need to consider/buy when doing this swap?

    VHT Paint

    So I've been trying to figure out the best path forward for headers. I am probably going to go with raw metal doug's headers in my 71 dart swinger with a 318. With raw metal will I still need to sand on the headers or just lay down the primer? Also right now the engine is out of the car, but...

    TTI Headers

    Are TTI headers really worth the money, meaning they aren’t that big of a hassle to install and massaging the headers is at a minimum? Pretty much every other brand has reviews at summit of needing to mod something or bash the pipes. Will buying TTI avoid all that?
