    Wheel well Sizes- Dart vs barracuda

    We all know Dusters are blessed with bigger wheelwells. I see early cudas running some pretty good sized tires as well. Autoxcuda is one. Do the early cudas and 68-72 Darts have roughly the same size wheelwell, esp. in the rear? That will help in the tire sizing battle.

    Timing indicator- 70 340

    My 340 has no timing indicator on the front cover. Was this a bolt on piece? Or has some one swapped out the original? No sign of breakage or grinding. And if it is a bolt on piece, where would you get one? Thxs

    I can pick up a good running 76 401 real cheap. I'm tempted to toss it in the Dart and save the 340. Pros- More torque and horsepower. Cons??

    Who's Dart?

    Well, a miracle occured and my wife and I came to an agreement. Actually, she told me she liked that color and could I paint the Dart that? Being smart, I said Of course. So now I need to find out what color this is. Don't think it's Plum Crazy. I can't remember where I downloaded the pics...

    Rear Main seal replacement

    The rear seal on my 340 was obviously leaking so I thought I would replace it while it is on the stand. Pulled the pump, pulled the cap, still has the OE cork seal. My dodge manual and my motor manual only show you how to do it with the crank removed. The problem is the block half of...

    Cruising with a high stall converter

    First, this could be a dumb question. I'm planning on a fairly stout cam in my 340. 284/484 approx. My engine guy told me I would need to run a 2500stall conv minimum to make it work right. Trans is a '70 727TF. I'm planning on running 3.91 gears and a gear venders OD unit. (I already...

    SBP to BBP swap questions

    I know i've seen stuff on this but can't find it now. All the wheels I want only come BBP so I guess I'll be swapping.Even fat steelies! So, the budget is low. I'm guessn' that you just swap rear axles/ brakes in the rear. Any bolt in for a 71 dart with the 8 3/4? The front looks more...

    727 's been sitting.

    My 340 is looking real good inside and now I'm starting to wonder about the trans. It has been sitting for most of the last decade. Last time this combo ran,5 yrs ago, it shifted fine. What do you think? Put it in the Dart and pray or take it apart? Ihaven't gone in a auto in a long...

    Hood sizes?

    Please forgive the noob question. From pics, which is all I have, it seems that a 71 Dart and a 71 duster have the same Ft sheetmetal. I want to put a demon scoop on my dart and can only find them listed for Dusters. And then only as a hood/scoop combo. So, Are they the same? And is...

    AutoX/Road race in a dart??

    Still planning what direction to take my Dart while I assemble parts and pieces. I've always wanted an AAR Cuda over a drag car, and wondered about how I could make a road hugging dart. And I swore I saw someone whose name was autox dart or something like that and my brain took off from...

    Possible????

    I was just offered a Super T10 4speed trans at a good price. Is it possible to use this with my 340?? I'm guessing custom bellhousing at least? Or is this just a bad idea? Problem is Mopar stuff is kinda hard to find 'round here.

    Dash swap- 69 to 71 dart

    While I'm blown away by PastorToms work, I'm not a fan of the wood grain dash in my 71. However, the 69 GT parts car I picked up has a cool dash. Is it a major nitemare to swap them, or just your normal PITA? Seems like it wouldn't be too bad, but thought I should ask the experts.

    Howdy! Going to have Lots of Questions!

    Glad I found this site! I just picked up a 71 dart, solid body, no eng or trans. VIN shows a V8 car (318) so the 340 and 727 sitting out back now have a home. I had a few mopars back in the day, best one was a 70 Cuda, plum crazy 340, 4spd, 3.55posi, etc. Can't get a Cuda and finally talked...
