I don't want to pee in your Cheerios but DO NOT RUN THAT FILTER!!!!! You are better off with the plastic one or better yet just get one of the all metal ones (4 bucks). The glass ones are not allowed at drag strips because if the glass cracks or shatters you will be pumping fuel everywhere.

Got a torch and a chisel? I heat up the bushing and it slides out then chisel out the shell.

Good point! If you are standing in front of the car facing the motor turning the flapper counter clockwise will close the flapper and divert the hot air to the intake and turning it clock wise will open the exhaust. The one in my wifes 66 is dead so I just left it in the open position. It...

I just went out and double checked.. excuse the crappy cell phone pics... The one in my 73 Dart (same as the one in my wifes 66 Dart) is factory AC 7 blade fan off a slant six and it s 1 1/2" thick. Also the blades slightly curve forward that with any flex in the fan at higher RPMS I wouldn't...

First things first, Burp the system just like DusterDude said, don't worry about a finding a shroud right now just burp the system and make sure you have a spring or coiled up coat hanger in the bottom radiator hose. While driving at speed the bottom hose will suck it self shut and overheat. If...

Is it a bad thing that I got more excited about the cool sun visor and the wide whites on the wagon?

The drive shaft will need to be shortened 1.6" I am getting ready to do this to Nikkis 66 pretty soon.

Well I agreed with you up until the whole god and 4 door thing.:-D

So your saying that you are a H.A.M.B. Alliance Member? :-D

AWWW Crap, come on guys this is...WAS the only forum that I'm part of where I don't...DIDN'T have to worry about seeing that stupid rat rod debate pop up.:angry7: I stopped going to all mopar shows because I got tired of seeing the same few types of cars over and over again, I stopped going...

Motor mounts and tranny mount everything else shouldn't be that big of a deal. You could even use the mopar ignition system with a little splicing here and there. Go with a slant radiator and the upper hose will be no problem, lower hose won't even be an issue. Distributer placement will be the...

Paint it mopar blue and see how long it takes people to notice. :snakeman:

DO IT!!!! Take lots of pics!

There were a few stragglers with drums and small bolt pattern into 74 but not many and after 73 they were pretty standard big bolt disks with either a 7 1/4 or 8 1/4.

You have to take into consideration the location of the car. I was raised in that area (Port Orchard/Bremerton) and usually when a classic ends up on a lot in that area it is due to a Navy guy shipping out and not being able to sell it right away on Craigslist/little nickel (local want ads)...

That looks like an insurance storage/auction yard to me. Something like IAA or Coparts.

Not saying that they are the greatest but IMO HEI ignition is way better that mopar electronic for daily driving. I have done many swaps and there is a night and day difference. Just because someone is the first to market doesn't make them better! And if I had one for a slant six I would run...

Yup, and she loves it!

Ta Da!!! 1986 truck motor with a rebuilt head, stock 66 1bbl and a new oil pump...

Got in, started right up, kicked down was soon as she was warm, and drove to work just fine. I still have to drop the timing down to around 8* (it's at 12* right now). Looks like Nikki will get to start driving her to work tomorrow...or the next day :snakeman:

IT'S DONE!!! The motor was in this afternoon, and after several "**** I knew I forgot something" runs to the parts store we fired her up and she runs great! I have to back off the timing because she is pinging under a load but other than having to put the hood back on and washing all the...

I already tore it down, the only thing that I didn't take out were the pistons and rods. It had great compression, didn't smoke and there are no scratches in the cylinder walls. Other than that everything else will be new.

I got the crank back and it is now 10/10 so I have to reorder the bearings. The new cam bearings are in the block, and all the other parts are sitting there waiting. The stock 66 motor will get the rebuild along with the cam, the offy intake, 390 and headers and will go in the 48. The current...

I brought the crank in to my machinist today and he is going to clean it up so the standard bearings I got from rockauto wont work so now I have to see if they will exchange them. I should be getting the block back tomorrow with new cam bearings installed. I did just buy another slant for...

When I was doing the 72 scamp with KH disks I swapped over to RH studs Here is what the box says... NAPA part number /5 #641-3148 Wheel Bolt 130 7/16 20 X 1-31/32

So I got the cam and lifters. I ended up getting a little bigger than stock... RV 254 S Mechanical grind. Specs................INT. EXH. Duration DEG.......254/ 254 Valve lift.............435/ .435 Valve lash............012/ .012 (yeah I don't think so. I will go with the stock...

God my garage is a frigging mess right now! I can't believe that I am rebuilding a motor on the floor! So the new crank and rod bearings are on their way from rock auto ($116 after shipping), the gasket kit is on it's way from ebay ($34 after shipping), I will go to Delta cam in Tacoma and...

You guys are assholes! :bootysha: It's Nikki's car and it already does/did burnouts. The only upgrade other than HEI ignition will be a 2bbl carb and intake.

I will leave the stock cam in the motor! I will leave the stock cam in the motor! I will leave the stock cam in the motor! I will leave the stock cam in the motor! I will leave the stock cam in the motor! I will leave the stock cam in the motor! I will leave the stock cam in the motor! I...

I got the block cleaned up and this is what the guts look like. I don't like this, there are no real bad fingernail catching grooves but still I don't want to have Nikki use it as a daily driver if the bearings look like this. I already knew that the rear seal was shot...
