    Sizing carburetor

    This is a decent article that talks about the baseline carb sizing. There's a lot of grey area, but it provides a formula for guidance. https://www.motortrend.com/how-to/much-carburetor-need-application/ Perhaps the most 'arguable' variable is Volumetric Efficiency (VE). If anyone knows of a...

    Any Old School Machinists Here?

    I am no machinist, but it doesn't sound kosher. However, I would completely trust the word of this guy Danny Soliz (@dansoliz) • Instagram photos and videos He owns a machine/performance shop nearby. You can find him on YT, Insta, FB etc. He is old school, learned from older school and knows...

    Worst Repair Ever!

    This has to be one of the best threads on here. It's raw and real with pics to back it up (pics or it never happened...). BRAVO to y'all. I hear from a lot of people 'when are you gonna have that car done?' Like I'm a full time pro shop with 6 employees and others to outsource to. I'm about to...

    A year later....

    No, not for the faint of heart. I'm doing a lot myself. I have farmed out the machine work for the motor. I'm having Woodruff reman the TQ, and I'm up in the air on quarter panels and final paint. Interior will also be farmed out, unless I want to use sheets and towels. I look at this as the...

    A year later....

    A year ago today my 71 Duster 340 (matching numbers) arrived. Since then a lot has happened, and seemingly not a lot. Perhaps the biggest event was getting a garage/workshop, and moving from the residential garage. More has happened since that. Here's the arrival picture, the link is to...

    So the First Friday night of each month is "Mopar Night" at Biff Buzzby's (Toeperwein & 35), check with the gang there. Paul, Josh or Syliva would be your best bets to ask. Find the line of older Mopars, you'll probably find them. Also, the Mopar Muscle Club -San Antonio is having a show/swap...

    So it begins, '71 Duster 340 TX9

    Sometimes I ask myself, Why do people do such things? With the motor out to the machine shop, it's time to start pulling the front suspension and all that. So there I am pulling the fenders to discover what you see below. In IMG_2131/2132 the silver piece is part of an old school folding chair...

    Anyone here live in the Eastern outskirts of Austin?

    You have a beautiful place there. Central Texas/Hill Country has been ruined by the influx of companies given massive incentives, not just the tax breaks. Density developments (those sub-divisions) are more than a PITA with the HOAs, there are generally additional taxes built in for what is...

    So it begins, '71 Duster 340 TX9

    I'm still kind of up in the air on how OE I'm going. I'm definitely going back to Black (TX9) for the body color and interior. It was black on black on black. Black body, interior and stripes. I'll go with the Go Wing (from factory) and I'm seriously considering the dual snorkel hood scoop, but...

    So it begins, '71 Duster 340 TX9

    So far, things are not a disaster. The info from owner 2 about only 5-8k miles from the rebuild appear to be right. The cam, bearing, lifters etc are in great shape. Strangely, the cylinders appear to be sleeved, which I thought when I pulled the pistons, but wasn't sure. The cylinders weren't...

    This just doesn't look "right" (manual steering)

    Thanks, that is a great photo of what it should probably look like, "at the showroom." I was at a car show yesterday and saw a few A bodies with columns in various positions. Yours appears centered, like I would expect.

    Sad Ending to My Dart Build

    Sorry to hear. I suggest keeping in touch with both the LE agency/detective handling the case AND making sure that the maximum charge the elements of the crime meet, are what he/she is charged with AND tried for. This will likely require you meeting with the DA and pushing them/holding them...

    After spending a week doing necessary repairs on my primary driver, I started disassembly of the motor yesterday, pulling the heads and intake manifold. Here's what I found out... Over all things don't (on first eyeball look) too bad. I wasn't thrilled to learn it's already been bored out...

    So after dealing with a A LOT of rust and corrosion from years of sitting, finally got the motor out. Now for scrubbing bubbles, tear down and trip to the machine shop. While it's away I'll be attacking suspension, brakes, steering and fuel lines in prep of taking the body to the shop for work...
