Look for the simple easy stuff first as outlined above. Keep in mind also that I've read where the balancer ring can spin and not be correct. If you have not, check top dead centre at the piston and then compare to the balancer mark to see if it is way off. If it is, then you can put your own...

Just a few points to make sure you get an accurate base. In the process of doing the same thing to a standard Dart. I would verify what gear is in the rear now, tyre size and make sure your speedo gear is the correct one. No sense in jumping through hoops trying to get mpg maxed when your...

Same here! I'd have the engine in a heart beat, but then seems like these great deals aways pop up on the other side of the world from me (figuratively speaking that is). Doesn't help that I've been diagnosed with supremo cheapnessimo or I'd consider shipping one.:-D

Couple of things if you are still fighting this. Was just reading the bbd manual a bit yesterday. Make sure your carb is good. A careful rebuild may be in order and make sure the throttle shaft is not worn and needs rebushed. In the first few pages of the bbd manual it mentions to make...

Sorry if I'm butting in as I've not seen any other threads about what you've done to the car. Not wanting to squash your hopes of hp with bolt ons, but I would advise maximising what you have so far. Make sure the valves are set right, timing and advance right, carb right, tune up right with...

I'd love to have a super six set up. Seems like all the ones you see on fleabay are incomplete though (anyone got a complete one they want to get rid of?). I heard the same thing on the exhaust as well. Not measured what mine is as yet. On the 2 barrel it was explained to me that it was a...

So, just wondering those who are running the 4 barrel intake with a 390 what sort of mpg are you getting? Probably not the purpose of a 4 barrel swap, but with the price Super Six setups are getting and how hard it seems (in this area at least, if someone has one for sale PM me) to find a...

First off would be what you mean by overheating? Is it boiling over? Are you looking at a perhaps inaccurate factory gauge? Do you have an aftermarket gauge and if so what temp it it showing? Correct sender? Has it always got "hot" or has it just started? Have you made any changes...

Mines off of a Diplomat with a 318 if I remember right. Too busy looking at the underside of the car at the starter rather than pay attention to what it was really. Think it was an 85 or so. Somewhere in there. Picked it up out of the local self serve auto salvage for $5 or something like...

Wish I had a Super Six.....ah, add that to the list. Working with the single one barrel slant at the mo. Think before I'd spend the dosh on headers or Dultra Duals I'd look at getting the state of tune spot on. Check for manifold leaks, set the valves, good quality wires, been hearing a...

Might be the angle of the picture or just my wonky eyes, but looks like it is hood cutting time to clear it. Very interesting set up though. Cheers

Thanks for the posts. Looks like a solution. Cheers

Is it worth trying to wrap the fuel line with some sort of heat reflector? I read in another post someone wrapped the fuel line and found a phenolic (sp?) spacer for the carb as well. Not sure that there is such a spacer available for a 1920 Holley one barrel carb, do you know? Thanks for...

I have the same issue with a '71 /6 Dart I just got. I think you are describing the same thing I noticed. I've not tried to restart the car as at the moment I'm just trying to tune and do the mechanical on it before we drive it regularly, but I did notice what looked like the petrol...
