I'm sure he is kidding. I agree with the concept of using a two-barrel carb on a two-barrel manifold, likewise with a four barrel. You may want to check out the Weber progressive two-barrel. Or...you may want to skip the carb all together and go with fuel injection. There were a couple of...

We used to have an aircraft tug with a poly head 318 in it. Another company I had worked for had a diesel re-power job replacing a 354 CID gen I Hemi.

You might want to check out AussieSpeed and their 4 bbl intakes. They have 9 different intakess 2 bbl, 4 bbl, 2-4 bbl with long and short runners. A bit pricey, but they work well. I have a long runner with a 390 cfm Holley that I ran for two years on a 73 Mordor. To take full advantage...

The engineering for running a Weber carb on a /6 is pretty much the same as any other carburetor. The Jeepers have been doing this sort of thing for quite a while. Maybe a few will pipe up with their carb comparisons on the 4.0L. ( Weber Carburetor Conversion for Jeep Vehicles ) Make sure...

The cleaning probably helped. Suggest if you do a rebuild, see if a brass float is available for the Carter. One of the problems I had with the Holley on the Mordor was a float that didn't (the other being a dud accelerator pump). A replacement float would have worked, but brass is less...

Wondering how often is the car being driven and if you're using a fuel stabilizer. I have seen ethanol laced fuel turn to goo after it sits a while. A good fuel stabilizer combats that problem.

Had a problem once upon a time where the flexible hose between the fuel pump and the steel line from the rear of the car would collapse after about an hour of highway driving. Cured it by replacing hose and making sure there was no sag and no sharp bends in it.

Should work on Rochester 2 CG. Remember kickdown provisions if you have auto trans.

Will this work? http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Universal-2-Barrel-Carburetor-Adapter,67.html

The most power to be gained from a /6 is going to come from more compression. I don't know what machine shop work goes for in you neck of the woods. Plan on a rebuild kit, milling the block and head to .090-.100 combined, a camshaft, and oversized valves. Depending on the condition of the...

Depending on time of model year and smog equipment it will be either a Holley 1920 (early production) or a Holley 1945. My 73 had a 1920 on it. Got a rebuild that was jetted too rich from AutoZone (Holley did the rebuild on it.). Bummer about rebuild kits is that most do not include...

concur with suggestion to install newer engine. Newer engine should have hardened valve seats and no "drool" tubes. 1981 and later should also have hydraulic lifters.

Very nice ride. Here's a logo for you.

Sorry. I can't download from a 24 MP camera straight onto FABO. Computer was acting up (not enough RAM or HD space) so "dumbing down" to make FABO's kb limit was not in the cards.

Thought all the slant sixers out there would enjoy seeing these. It was in a 36? Dodge truck at the SW Mini-nats this past Labor Day.

Glad it was an easy fix. You'll have to drop the tank to clean it. The way I cleaned out gas tanks involved putting about 1-2 lbs of 1/2" to 3/4" diameter gravel (not smooth) and a pint of gas in the tank. Seal tank and shake like crazy turning tank around to expose interior surfaces to...

Points are gapped at .020. Too close and the coil never gets a chance to build power, no fire at plug. Too far apart and the points never open, no fire at plug. Usually a tolerance of .005 will run

Seems like the water pump. The WP pulley seems to move forward as the revs increase. Is it a rebuilt/remanufactured water pump? I haven't had good luck with remans. They seem to fail for the same reason they failed the first time

The four blade fan should be fine. If you have reservations about it, try a viscous fan and a shroud from a car with A/C. While tuning up the cooling system, check the lower radiator hose. I had a problem with the 73 /6 overheating at highway speeds (70-75 mph). Turns out that as I...

No. Octane is a colorless liquid that will boil around 125º F. Octane Ratings are only a measure of the fuel's tendency to burn in a controlled manner, rather than exploding in an uncontrolled manner. Explosion in an uncontrolled manner in an engine is what is more commonly called knock or...

This is interesting in that they appear to be saying that this product is useless on most of the vehicles sold in the United States since 1971. 1. EGR systems came into common use in the US in 1972. All of them have vents under the carburetor which allow exhaust gasses to pass into the...

Check out this discussion from slantsix.org on a similar topic. http://www.slantsix.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=46991 Sorry I can't be more helpful.

The motor mounts changed to spool type in 73. Keep the ones you have on the 65 now. The cylinder head got hardened seats in 72. Very good for unleaded fuel and DD usage. The 904 on the /6 does not interchange with the V-8. Starter motors mount in different places. IIRC, the 65 uses a...

Weber makes a down draft progressive 2 bbl carburetor. The 32/36 DFEV Weber carburetor two barrel progressive carb, electric choke linkage rotates clockwise. Will replace Holley 5200 Models and 32/36 DFAV as well. Redline Weber can answer questions concerning the carb as well as sell the...

Actually, the 71-77 camshaft was the most "radical" installed in the 225. There are several aftermarket camshafts available. Check here and over at SlantSix.org. Good luck finding an intake that will allow the throttle shaft to be installed parallel to the crankshaft. Most I have seen are...

I stand corrected. One of my books calls the circled item a vacuum amplifier, but the factory parts manual calls it a vacuum reservoir. :oops: There is a vacuum amplifier on the A/C, but it's located inside the car. The factory parts manual lists two numbers for the hockey puck er...vacuum...

Sorry for missing mill comments in the other posts. :oops: But secret weapon?? Hell, that's half of a backwoods/redneck tool box contents. It works like this: If it moves and should not, use the tape; if it doesn't move and should, use WD-40. :)

To this point, all of us that have of us that have posted have focused on bolt-on speed items. If you are willing and able to pull the engine and take it apart,, there are some real power gains to be had. A quick clean up of the head passages and combustion chambers can be done at home. The...

You're in luck. The 71 through 77 /6s have the best camshaft Mopar installed in it. The specs on the cam are 244º/244º/26º with lifts of .406/.414. Mopar used to make a pair of camshafts for the engine, but the specs on the current models look like they are using repackaged Comp Cams. Comp...
