    Son wants to go into Automotive Tech

    I have some history in this, I am now 31 with a BS in Mechanical Engineering and an MBA...But I also graduated from UTI. Out of high school I had very little direction, my parents didn’t go to college and I didn’t understand the limitations behind being a tech. It’s a fine job, but the long...

    Picked up a '69 Dart Custom Sedan

    This popped up for sale locally and I couldn't pass it up for some reason. 318/904 car, air conditioning, power steering and not a lick of rust. The previous owner daily drove it from 1998-2002, it appears to have sat since then. Gas tank is junk, carb was gunked up and it looks like they had...

    Engine Builder Missed These

    I had one main cap bolt missing when i got my block back from the machine shop...low oil pressure of my engine sure makes me think the 'crank turning' isn't so "true"...

    turkey rod run (daytona)

    Definitely not much there for mopar guys. We're headin back today with my Barracuda and my Dad's Challenger..only really because we got in for free this year. It's an "okay" show. I cannot stand how the show cars, for sale, and all the random cars are in the place. I can't understand their...

    towing with dolly ...

    Definitely disconnect the driveshaft. Only other thought for yourself would be; *do i want to disconnect the driveshaft? *do i want to possibly have to rebuild the transmission?

    Little Red Express

    My fiance drove her Dad's to high school when I met her at Mopars at the Strip with it. Her Dad and I put a new engine in it (rebuilt factory 360) over last Christmas and got it running again. He's gettin it ready for fresh paint

    Why I Own A Mopar

    I blame the Nash Bridge's Cuda. That show was on when i was a teen and I wanted a 'Cuda. Couldn't afford one though! Got lucky when mine came up for sale and got it for a pretty fair price! Went downhill from there :D

    i hate smog equipment

    Dang such a difference between the two, my mistake. I was confused by the dollar bills on the side. Sweet econo race car. I'd think your Slant would do pretty well mpg wise too, race that one too?

    i hate smog equipment

    Ugly? hmm..lol *cough* daytons on a duster *cough* Couldn't help it. :D But yes you will lose a bit over time without that system. Especially since most of our cars aren't used on a daily basis. Nice vented 16gallon tank of fuel (or however much his is) at $4/gallon will add up. Quicker if it...

    i hate smog equipment

    Losing the egr wont gain you anything since it only functions at part throttle/cruising situations. WOT it is not functional.

    Ordered The New Paxton Setup

    you can force hypers, just be careful on fuel trims and ignition. You can't have the room to play with like you would if you had forged. But if you run a safer tune you definately could

    Ordered The New Paxton Setup

    are there smaller pulleys availible? 7-8# isn't too shabby, 14# would be much more fun :D. $2800 isn't allll that bad. Wonder if you can just buy the brackets however and do your own setup for an efi and just run a carb hat. kind of a general chart. If you have 8:1 compression and add...

    i hate smog equipment

    im no exact help, but dont expect to lose much. A lot of that clutter is the a/c system. Charcoal canister i think is about all you will have.

    I have a crazy Idea!

    You realize our cars are Muscle Cars and not Hot Rods....Putting a different brand engine into a 70s muscle car is not 'hot roddin' ...Just clarifying, because all this 'thats real hot roddin!' stuff is sounding pretty stupid when reffering to a muscle car... Hot Rod 101: Hot Rod...
