    Have you disconnected your OSAC system?

    It's a form of pollution control. Faster or more timing puts out more pollutants. Bypass it and see if it likes it

    Putting head on slant six

    I know I have the exhaust seals, might have a set of intake too. Your welcome to them for shipping cost. They're cheap to buy, but shipping might be cheaper. Can I suggest before you take anything apart to fill each chamber with alcohol and let it sit for a bit to ck if the valves are...

    Putting head on slant six

    You might consider a valve job since the head is already off. Could have been the reason it was removed in the first place. At least you can reassemble knowing the head is good and cross your fingers on the rest!

    A/C or no A/C?

    Is it a working system now? If so, you know the parts are good if you decide to store them. You could always leave it off for a bit and see if you can live without it. If not stick it back on. I put the air back on my Dart after 18 years, the summers got hotter as I got older! It changed the...

    Blow By

    My old slant in my 71 had such bad blow by, I couldn't keep the hose from the breather connected to the air cleaner. It would push so much oil into the air filter it would clog up. I finally ran a long hose from the breather down to a container by the frame rail. After a long drive on the...

    Tool for slanty valve seal replacement in car

    I'd like to replace the valve seals on my sons slant. I have the shaft mounted tool to do it on a small block, but wondering if it will work on the slant. Is it long enough to reach the spring? What has anyone used? Thanks FABO.

    Fuel Pump Mounting Problems

    The metal bracket that sticks out bolts to the block and the motor mount bolts to it. Even if the mount was sagging the pump to bracket clearance shouldn't change as there both bolted to the block. that being said I had the same problem on our 70 Dart. I ended up knocking the corner down on the...

    Not enough spark

    Condenser is worth a shot. I've seen them keep a car from running all together. I'm assuming timing is good? And cap and rotor have passed a visual inspection?

    Getting a more muscle sound out of a 6

    I had a stock slant with a header and ran duals with low buck turbo mufflers. Sounded almost like a 8 at idle but once you hit the gas not so much.

    Did the factory use different pulley sizes for slant with AC?

    Was just reading on another post how V8 AC cars had different pulley sizes to spin the fan faster on the AC cars. Did they do the same for the slant cars? If so which pulleys were different?

    Oil Light Came On

    Hopefully its just a faulty sending unit. Had the light pop on, on the turnpike one day. Did what you did, pulled over and checked everything. The motor was still quiet as a pin, so deep down I was hoping all was good. Turned out to be the sending unit. Waiting for your results!

    Thermostat housing bolt

    Come on guys, all this talk about fancy bolts. You all dig around in your bucket of bolts just like me, until you pull out a greasy one that's almost the right size, clean it up and stick it in. LOL!
