    74 Dart 360 Sport

    Finished up cleaning up welds test fitted many times rear mount. I ran tranny lines and fuel with pfte. These fittings are ok but seems legit garage has a better one that sticks out little farther. I chose not to go under engine and went left side and up for my lines. I will put a heat wrap...

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    Its the factory 8hp shifter both top and bottom. Used are mostly from wrecked cars and stuck in rain electronics has to be an 8Hp unit. It's the Challenger or TRX style can flip to manual shift. I could have saved cash but I hate the dial shifter.

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    Ran fuel lines last night and checked out my trans cooler and controller wiring a bit last night. I love the PFTE stuff and the little compression fittings just like the stuff for copper plumbing and pecs. What a great product was so easy to use, I do need to find some heat wrap from the front...

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    Final install of ZF 8HP70 for 1974 Dart Sport 360. Excited great easy morning. Did my angle check in degrees exactly as it was for stock setup. I will weld in my upper hoop now as it will no longer need to come in and out with new setup I made. The tunnel does not have to be huge but I'm...

    72 Dart Swinger 3.6L Pentastar +T5

    He had issues getting the exhaust routed but if your looking at other solutions here should be fine to start. My car dont have much left stock and big upgrade I am doing the ZF 8 speed in front of an old school LA360 build.

    Adapter installed and the bushing. Looks like I will be using the .075 spacers for the torque converter. Torque to spec 55 foot pounds.

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    Ok upper hoop is in where I plan for it to live now. Minus any adjustments well stab transmission and build the tunnel around it. Three pieces top middle narrow side, should look way better than Ma Mopar did with her crooked weird tunnel. Great for stock of course but no reason to duplicate...

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    Now I can adjust the hoop little trim to do here and there but this should do it. I got back ordered trans mount puck, the 90 degree elbows for 10AN pfte trans lines, and a bushing thays supposed to be here today for the crank for the JVX flywheel install. If I can get this 40 bucks of parts...

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    Floor modification coming along nicely and the upper tunnel hoop will be wider and taller. This should give me plenty of room for new transmission. I also addressed the floor not being welded as it should be across the cross member corners.

    Father Son truck rebuild!

    A great looking truck! The 8HP70 LASB/rb page on Facebook ZF swaps may be of interest. Ram Charger with LA360 did the swap and he loves. Sounds like perfect candidate you got here. I am doing it on my Dart Sport right now.

    8hp70 transmission crossmember mount

    So my issue with this system is it's for a Hemi swap and motor forward. I really don't like the idea of forcing more weight to front 3 inches. Hemi its long and bigger makes sense. But I'm using a JVX adapter 360 engine stays put and trans mount moves with torsion bars in place. Cost is a...

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    Here is a picture of the Dodge shifter. Pretty standard on the console cars versus the turn dial. This flips over to side and then you shift like a manual it's 8 gears and ZF shift is 150ms. I doubt other than maybe a road course or parking lot fun/drag race that you would use this. I have...

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    Coming along let me explain what's about to happen here. 1. Trim the upper underside tunnel where firewall and floor meet. This hangs down about an inch gotta go. Weld that and grind smooth. 2. Lift tunnel up and out to accommodate the ZF. It's not a very big tunnel and we're talking about...

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    I did the standard shifter that has the ability to be shifted up or down in the stick. Still it was 580 shipped but it is all brand new. This is not a cheap swap not going there lol. It is reliable though and for what an auto can do not sure you could do much better for a new transmission and...

    I purchased the Sound German Automotive controller 1032.00 delivered to door. Lots of cars have been completed with Russell Drake's unit with good results. These are daily drivers done at home in most cases. The Lamik unit is very very expensive and considering it's not turn key and requires...

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    Pulled the 727 trans tonight and will get new upper cross member hoop in and we'll see what else needs to be done to fit the ZF. I will take pictures of any mods as we do them. Idea here is keep torsion suspension can be done and fit the transmission and have the proper degree angle. I'll...

    2nd frame connector is in the car. We're it not for taking out the old gas line would have been easy. I fabbed this one up in a couple hours. Lot cleaner than the first I think. I also itemized the cost for the total of ZF transmission kit. You could do it cheaper I didnt cheap out or part...

    Ok so I got curious and now I'm making these as well. I'm there and its in the air and I figure if it makes trans tunnel and torsion bar setup more stable why not! How to make torque boxes

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    Took a bit but made own frame connectors need to weld in now. Then I can pull transmission and install the flywheel for the ZF. I have a hoop combo by from Hooker Blackheart. It replaces the loop support for torsion bar upper support. Hooker BlackHeart BHS578 Hooker Blackheart Transmission...

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    Got the seats finalized and have some new pictures I moved it over 2 inches and back one from bench seat mount centered on steering wheel perfectly. I'm little more room on the headliner. You do need to remove that bench seat mount for the seat controls and helps the seat mount flatter and...

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    I will measure shortly and post a picture. They are taller seats compared to bench, factory or sport bucket or shorty bucket. They were not 500-1000 for just the seats and some cheap knock off not matching the car. I have 85 dollars in the seats and some gas/mig time and of course engineering...

    I got my 850 Pro-form reworked with new custom metering blocks. Sharpton Racing in Dewey Oklahoma hooked me up. I gave him all my engine information cam and so on. Then he turns it around in a month! These were blank blocks very impressive. Car runs amazing now can't wait to have the new ZF...

    Welp here is the first test fits I did a bit of driving will work out well. I need to change the seat location in the track I believe I can move it back a bit more. In the picture that's all the way forward its electric ya know cuz this little car needs that lol for the driver of course. It...

    74 Dart 360 Sport

    Floors modified for 2013 Charger bucket seats. The Dart was a bench seat car so I had to remove the raised mounts. Way to tall otherwise. Then I had to remove front bracket and flip the front hole down. I made my own bracket out of 14 guage sheet metal. Then tacked in new floor board and...
