I got brought home from the hospital where the stork dropped me off in a brand new 1964 Dodge Dart 270 wagon that my folks picked up a week before my earthly debut

It's done - forgot to update that - here's a before, an after (with my wife and our neighbor who did the build), and...her truck as the subject of Max Grundy's latest piece, "Horsepower" done one commission for us :)

Sounds like Fran at Fox Engineering, who shorted me about $1k worth of FI computer on a custom EFI he took years to build - then took it to a show to show off before he sent it to me and I saw pictures of it (maybe here?) before I ever saw it. Stopped returning my emails and wouldn't answer the...

Yeah - looks like he decided to stay up in CO after summering there again...too bad - he built 3 for me, and I need one more... :-/

If anyone's looking to hot rod one of these and needs other go-fast parts to go with the intake, check out this site: VINTAGE MOPAR INLINE L-HEAD PERFORMANCE PARTS

Thought I'd seen a reference to a prototype scoop for early A's - check this thread for dimensions: Early A hood scoop?

1 project at a time

but does it have a hemi?

Beats having an inert vehicle in your garage collecting flotsam and jetsam!

We did the Allen Berg Racing School 10 lap experience (or something like that) a few years ago - similar cost - get to drive a Formula Renault (1355 pounds, 530 HP, sequential shift, sticky tires) - they set up a 'road course' in a parking lot - short course, 2 small straightaways - first...

Not an A body, but a B body with a 383 and long tubes - had to disconnect the driver's side headers and motor mount, put a bottle jack under the oil pan and jack the left side of the engine up, then persuade the headers up as high and toward the front as possible, then shake the starter until it...

The 1 year old with 2500ish miles Hellcats (see them pretty regularly here) run a smidge more than a new 392 ($1k when I got mine) - that's an amazing value, IMHO

This one is actually pretty easy to overlook, if you ask me...

Who chose the Sniper? You or the customer? If the customer said, "Let's use a Sniper", then I'd say they're on the hook for the rework if Holley doesn't help.

My Hellcat is a lot less squirrely in wet weather than my '71 Superbee was - no experience in snow/ice, though Traction control and ABS are pretty amazing

Looks like a factory Hyper-Pak intake/exhaust - but did they put scoops on them, or did someone add it later? If it were a factory racer, it would have the 170, not the 225, right? I'm guessing somebody bought go-fast parts later and installed them. The 'story' is improbable - " This is...

Make sure the pin the locates the bellhousing isn't broken off (don't ask me how I know to check :-( )

Use to do a fair bit of rope splicing when I was a Scout

Here's my wife's almost done '46 Dodge - back to the interior shop today - after they fix a few things, exhaust, alignment, then on the road!

And OCIR is an IKEA, now...I think :-(

There's another thread about this here: The Plymouth Weslake DOHC Motor from the 60's Was up on ebay for a mere $161,499.95 a while back: eBay Find: Weslake Rod Shop '69 Dodge 318 V8 Indy Engine - EngineLabs re: the distributor, the Gurney Weslake Fords had the same setup - I'm betting it was...

Body color bumpers were optional on B and E bodies at various times, but I don't know that they were ever offered on A bodies? 1971 A- B- & E-Body Mopar Options & Accessories - Mopar Muscle Magazine

A LOT of money in paint and body left on that...

I saw that, but the gavel came down at $107k - I think $10k must be the fees for buying at BJ? It cost $450 to bid (and you had to show bank statements to show you could pay)...if not for the $450 to try and if that Dart hadn't been scheduled on big money Saturday, I might've tried to scoop it -...

Two Kindigit cars went across the block for big bucks ('67 Mustang fastback for $275k and a '68 Camaro for $330k) at BJ while I was waiting to see the Big Oak Garage '65 Dart (which went for $107k - I think if they'd done a more mainstream car, they'd have gotten the big bucks like Kindigit)...

Agreed - UPS sucks

I forget which one it was, but here's the March setup in my wife's '46 pickup (from a couple of years ago) - one thing you'll probably need to do is adjust the pulleys front-to-back until the belts run true - they're adjustable Here it is, just back from interior - though you can't see the...

I got an email that mine shipped today - thanks again for the heads up!!
