    [WANTED] 1969 Dodge Dart GT Dash Cluster

    thank you for that. I passed that to my mechanic and he called. Im thinking he said the guys name was Randy but I could be wrong. Anyway, he said he did not have the parts to fix the 69 gt. Was a good idea, the year 69 is a hard year I guess.

    [WANTED] 1969 Dodge Dart GT Dash Cluster

    Hello, I am looking for the cluster for my 69 Dart. The speedometer has destroyed itself and we're (the mechanic and I) not having any luck finding someone who might be able to fix it. He found someone in Tampa that does this exact thing but because its analog he doesn't have any parts for it...

    Roundback vs. Squareback alternators?

    How did you know that..that it was already modified by the builder with the circled brush grounded. I have taken the washer out of it and put it like that in the car...maybe thats why it isn't charging. I will need to get one of those tools from Amazon to check it like that. I thought I read...

    Roundback vs. Squareback alternators?

    The picture above where the one terminal is circled is the one I removed that washer from because the other one matches with what I have on the roundback so I couldnt mess with it. On my picture of my roundback the grd terminal is like the circled one, and it has no washer in it either so by...

    Roundback vs. Squareback alternators?

    I tried that and it still isn't charging. That's the way its in the car now, and checking the battery as it's running its going down still. I couldn't get it above 12.12 at the battery at 3krpm, took it to OReillys auto and it failed the test.

    Roundback vs. Squareback alternators?

    I have a 69 dart the alternator just went on, and the only one they had around here was a square back one. When you removed the washer, did you put the brush/spring back in? With just a bare hole if I take out the brush, spring, washer the screw is too long. I'll add some meat to this - I have...

    I was searching ld340 and saw a old post of yours regarding how you have your setup running all low torque 0-5500rpm and thats it. I have a 69 dart gts that i would like to do the same without going overboard...by that i mean no track, mostly just cruising and the occasional holeshot. Any...

    A Body Disc Brake Swap 101

    This has been a great post. I am researching doing this to my 69 Dart gts. A lot of great tips here. I have a question or 2 - I’m running 235/60/14 Year One rally 4inch bolt all around. I see some of these kits say they won’t fit Year One rally 14inch, others say the wheel needs to be 13.25 id...

    Torque converters

    Thanks for all your responses, it helped me out. With the prices coming down on some of these parts to replace stock ones, maybe I can get another 80hp or so. I figure that will get the results I want.

    360 head choices. What's everyone running?

    its over an hour but I found it educational I'll try and watch it again so as to post exactly where its at. But I have another dumb question...is there a sticky that tells me how to figure out what head assemblies I can use out of the box? Or even how to "know" this head assembly will drop on...

    360 head choices. What's everyone running?

    I hope I'm not hijacking the thread but I've been watching porting videos on youtube. I saw one the other day done by an employee of Edelbrock - was a bit over an hour long I think - anyway he was saying that when you buy their heads that they more or less have to have a porting job on them...

    The Sunshine State Mopar Show and Swapmeet

    Yes that will be a big problem. I'm not sure I'm going due to this virus...hopefully next year will not have the same problems going in. I'm hoping the Turkey Rod Run at Daytona will be on the other side of all this crap. (would be the first time I went and didn't have to jot down all the for...

    High and Low side a/c

    I know its been a few days on this but I wanted to thank everyone for the great advice regarding this problem i had with the darts a/c. After wasting over a week fooling with this, I took the advice to take it to a pro. They were able to pull a vacuum down to 29.3 which i never came close to...

    High and Low side a/c

    Yes I am really new to automotive A/C, this and brakes I never really tried. I have ordered a receiver drier and will try an automotive shop tomorrow to see if I can schedule a vacuum for the dart. Would I have a vacuum done before or after installing the new receiver drier? The salesman at...

    High and Low side a/c

    Those are some good looking 90's. I got the fittings on - the high side would not take a shrader so I left it in the old fitting, and will find out when I put some gas in it if the red hose will still read. The blue one was pretty easy, I dremmeled down my smallest needle nose to make a tool...

    High and Low side a/c

    I have been looking at the refit kits sold in the area and they say they fit 1976 to present. Do I need a special/different part for my 69 dart? Also, A lot of them say they are for GM cars.

    High and Low side a/c

    Thank you for that...if the guy would have told me I needed to put the converted fittings on I would have bought them while I was there...also the little rubber doughnuts that go in the fittings at the bottom to make an airtight seal are all broke so I need to see if o'reilly auto has spares...

    High and Low side a/c

    Thank you for that shop manual link, I'm heading there now. You are right about the dimestore...either the red or blue both ends do not fit on high or low on the engine.

    High and Low side a/c

    I have used the tool loaner program for a vacuum pump and hose manifold for checcking my a/c. The engine (340) in it is not the correct engine so I'm trying to locate the high and low side to hook this up. I took 2 pics of 1) my motor 2) the compressor witch has a fitting on each side of the...

    Finally Got My Dart

    Thanks for all the great comments. It is not a number matching motor/trans the way I understand it. The car came with the highest output motor for that year. My guess is that it was pulled and probably sold, but who knows. As for the brakes, all around drum brakes, they stop the car but it...

    Finally Got My Dart

    I've spent the last week cleaning my garage so I could get the dart inside. I never thought I'd see the garage floor again in my lifetime...but my daughter took control and now I can park and walk inside it. Here's a few pics that were part of the selling package from where I bought it. My...
