What I am not sure of is what bracket style (model year) I need to mount the canister. I have a '72 bracket but it does not appear to be the right one. It would be helpful if I could see what the correct bracket looks like. Matt

Hello, I am in the process of finishing my engine compartment on my '71 225 Slant Six Duster with A/C. Would anyone have pictures of the carbon canister placement - because I do not see where one should be installed in my car since the horn is in the way. I am not sure if it makes a...

Thanks to Moparfan68 I have a cap in good condition. Based on the time to find it I need to make sure I never forget it at a gas station!

PM sent.

I need a gas cap for my 1971 Duster. From what I understand the cap I need was for 1970 California and 1971 for all US A bodies. I am starting to wonder if my only choice will be to pay 100 plus for an NOS one.

Charrlie: Do you know what was changed in the head on hydraulic cam cars? The newer head is wider and uses a different valve cover then the older solid lifter version. -Matt

When I rebuilt my '71 Slant six I decided to convert it over to a hydraulic cam. You will need to do the following: Replace the camshaft with a hydraulic cam. Replace the cam bearings since the rear bearing is different in order to pump the oil to the head. Replace the head with a hydraulic...

I am cleaning out the garage and I have the following parts for sale. I am located north of Grand Rapids, MI. -8.75" Axle Shafts (8 3/4") with small bolt pattern flanges. $100.00 -Power Steering Shaft and Union (to convert your car from manual to power) $40.00 -NOS (almost) set...

I am curious - in the picture of the yard there is a 70's Dart with the Chrysler Road Wheels. Does anyone know if Mopar made a SBP Road Wheel (like the Magnum 500 style wheel with a trim ring). I wouldn't mind picking up a set for my '71 since they would be different. Regards, Matt

Would anyone have the valvetrain in good condition for a 225 Slant Six. The challenge is that I am switching from a solid lifter to hydraulic cam so I need the rocker arms, shaft and pushrods from an '82 - '87 Slant Six (the rockers do not have the adjustment nuts to set the valve lash). I...

HI Eric, Sorry, but I sold my shroud a few weeks ago. Regards, -Matt

Attached are pictures of my slant six shroud for sale. Included is a picture of the P/N and overall size. It came from a '73 or a '74 Scamp with a 225 with A/C. Please note, you should check to confirm if it will fit your radiator since it did not fit my 1972 22" radiator without modifying...

I have the following parts left over from my Duster build in West Michigan. I would prefer to send the parts down the road to someone who will use them instead of scrapping them. -7 1/4 rearend complete from a '73? Duster $40 -904 Transmission from the same car. $40 -22" Slant Six Shroud...

Thanks for the information, that was exactly what I was looking for. I too might have considered a different year manifold had I realized the fun I was in for. But at this point with the manifold blasted, painted and installed in the car + I just spent $30 on a carburator thermostat I am...

The spring is not open to the exhaust. The steel "cup" is installed to plug the hole with a gasket. The thermostat then sits on top of it. However, after 30+ years pretty much everything on mine was rusted out and shot. The thru hole is definitely a factory feature, since I have 2 of them,

Thanks for the reply, attached are pictures of my '71 intake along with one picture of a '74 for comparison. Any input would be appreciated.

I just got my '71 Duster with a /6 running last week and I am still working thru a few minor issues. I have a '72 exhaust manifold on the engine which has the thru hole and a stamped steel cup for the carburator thermostat. I have found an original carb. thermostat which I will be adding but...

The standard radiator for a Slant is 19" and the 22" I believe was std. with A/C. I belive the same was true of the V8 cars. Since the outlet locations are different they are not interchangable. If you are planning on a nice running 318 2bbl driver the 19" radiator would be fine. For...

Hi Frank, If your car has a 22" Radiator for a Slant Six automatic I would be willing to trade even up for a 19" V8 radiator. (since I am converting my car from a V8 to a slant) Regards, -Matt

The funny thing is it will be interesting to see what the previous owner will think when he sees it. I am about 95% sure that I have ripped out every single item that he had touched (including the side stripes). I would love a 340 Duster, but it seems like everywhere I look I see V8 Dusters...

Thanks for the positive comments that everyone posted. I am a little surprised as well to see how nice it is coming out. The entire engine, trans, and all loose parts I bought off of a 1972 Dart. I was planning on putting all of the emissions control items/heat riser, etc. Regards, -Matt

It is going slow, but I now have the engine installed. With any luck in a few weeks it will be on the road if I have all of the parts:) (see my other post for "help with my '71 Duster) -Matt

Hi, I am finially starting to assemble my 1971 Slant Six Duster and I am hoping someone on the forum with a '71 Duster can help me. My car is an original Slant Six, but when I bought it a junk 318 was installed which I have since ripped out. I bought a slant six + transmission off of Ebay and...

Thanks for the encouragement. I was thinking about going with either a new Hemi or 360 and decided the car was too unique NOT to change back to a Slant. Based on the high impact color and all of the options I suspect it will probably get more attention at shows as a six. (plus I will not need...

Attached are pictures of my 1971 Slant 6 Duster. It is a very solid almost rust free California car that was orignally a Slant, Auto, Air, PS, deluxe interior car. When I bought it had a 318 half cobbled up and installed (big cam, 4 bbl, leaky headers with the stock 2.76 7 1/4" rear and 18"...

Attached are some new pictures. Couple of additional items include the following: -A set of 318 exhaust manifolds, see pictures for the P/N's. Blasted and painted with high temp paint, just needs to be cured. $45 -Summit aircleaner, 14" diameter, 3" tall for 4 bbl. $15

Hi David, Attached are some pictures of the grill to make sure that it is what you want. Please note: the turn signal plugs changed in '72 so this grill will fit '70-'72 but you will need to change over the plugs if you are installing it in a '72 (I found out the hard way when I went to...

(Updated descriptions for the Radiator, motor mounts and exhaust) Time for Spring Cleaning I have the following parts for sale: -22" Radiator, pressure tested and sides brazed in place, painted ('68) $80 (removed from a '68 C-Body, but will fit a later model A-Body such as my '71 Duster...

The mufflers are similar to flowmasters and are pretty loud, but I do not know the manufacturer of them (they were installed on my Duster when I bought it). The pipes are 2.5". The pipes and mufflers are used, but clean with no surface rust. Regards, -Matt

Time for Spring Cleaning I have the following parts for sale: -22" Radiator for an automatic, pressure tested and sides brazed in place, painted ('6 $80 (removed from a '68 C-Body, but will fit a later model A-Body such as my '71 Duster - but it would be more correct for a '68 Dart since it...
