Thanks to everyone for the advice. I ended up using a home-made L bracket attached to the bolt holes between the manifold and the valve cover. Very safe and balanced, which is a good thing for a poor Canadian boy who can't afford a engine lift. Instead I borrow a tractor with a loader from my...

Thanks to everyone for your help. Just finished the swap and everything works great!!

Thats a great idea. What exactly do I need to complete the electronic ignition?? I have the electronic distributor and the coil, but thats it.

Wondering if anyone could tell me a good safe spot to attach my straps to pull out a slant 6.

I am pulling my blown 170 out of my 68 dart and installing a 225 out of a 74 duster. The 225 came with a vacuum solenoid, a vacuum amplifier, and a mess of vacuum lines. My dart doesn't have all of this junk and I wonder if it is all necessary. If anyone has any advice or a diagram, It would...

Thanks to all.

Just wondering if the 74 duster slant 6 was a 225 or 198??

my 170 was doing the same thing, it turned out to be bad compression.. I spent a lot of money replacing everything possible before doing a comp. check. Not very wise at all

Thanks guys

Hi from PEI, I have a 68 dart with a badly worn 170, I would like to find a 225 but not at the expense of purchasing a new trans and rear end. Wondering if a 225 will simply bolt up where my 170 was or what I need to do to make it fit?? Thanks to anyone who takes the time to help.

Plymouth tranny is toast, dart tranny is golden. Thanks charrlie and dartman for the advice.

Just to be clear, I was wanting to put the 67 plymouth fury 225 where my 68 dart 170 used to be. I just don't know if the fury 225 will bolt up to my dart tranny. I don't mind buying an adapter or two.

I've never set valves but very willing to try. Thanks to omahamoparguy, I have the clearance numbers. Any advise for checking valve lash that could save me some study time???

I just finished doing the oil in the cylinders trick, the pressure in every bad cylinder came up at least 20psi. I was told that a bad head gasket might lower compression, but after doing the oil trick it looks like rings I guess. Does anyone know if the oil in the cylinders could have helped...

Hi, Nat from Canada, I've got a 68 Dart with a 170 that will idle all day until I drop it into gear. It almost felt like the torque converter was locked on, until I did a compression test. From the back of the engine to the front- cyl 6 = 60 cyl 5 = 70 cyl 4 = 120 cyl 3 = 60 cyl 2 = 120 cyl 1...
