Not sure if this applies, but my catalog says that 315/60/15's have a tread width of 11 inches. My 30/10.5/15 Goodyear Eagle slicks have a tread width of 10.5 inches. My rear is narrowed to 50 inches flange to flange, and the inside offset of my Cragar Supertricks is 4 inches of a 10 inch rim.

What size wheel?

You and I have twins seperated at birth...well mine being built in LA. Your car is a week older than mine...Mine turns 44 on Dec. 28. Happy birthday and merry Christmas.

Did you see the car he put them on? "Correct" is obviously a consideration.

"Remember the trend several years ago to make cars look like roller skates with deep dish spoke wheels? They were always coming in to get hubs and axles replaced." People have been running deep reverse offset on the rear wheels without any problems whatsoever for 50 years. Never heard of...

I think he is just confused. If THEY were '69 Charger, he'd be about right.

My post was made in good faith, and yes I was more than a little pissed off by the responses I got. Was it the best way to handle the situation? probably not. Do I honestly care what hood someone puts on their Valiant? Not in the slightest.

I believe what I was saying was go to a Chevy site...there is an abundance of ads for cowl induction hoods and scoops. Since these companies don't just build one brands', hoods... you will find what you are looking for if it exists.

Look you little dilhole... I merely made a quick suggestion. I have not in any way demeaned or belittled your question. I am NOT Mopar or no car, and never have been. Why don't you go back and read my post jackass.

Strange. I have never seen a '66 Dart GT radio bezel like that before. I have 4 or 5 of them, including one from a ragtop that has a power top switch, and none of them are like that. The silver does not end on the right hand side of the radio, and there is no "edge" to it. The only pic I...

Some one on a Chevy site will have a cowl induction scoop. I have never seen a replacement hood for a '64 plymouth A-body, let alone a scooped hood...so you will likely have to buy the scoop and bond it to your hood. Go to a Chevy site...find a cowl induction hood scoop buy the thing and build it.

Not to hijack the thread, but Toolman... regarding the plastic fascia on your dash; what is between the radio and the edge of the glove box. I've got several dash sets, but the silver area is continuous and even across the front. Is yours like an end section there?

Yes it was an option on the '66 Dart.

Thats a steal. I've got one without any cracks, and excellent chrome that I wouldn't part with for less than $250. As it is I have NO plans on ever getting rid of it. Too many cracked ones out there, and I worry about the one in my car. Feels good to have a back up.

Just to give you an idea of how massive these things are look at the headers in the above pic of the red '65, and notice that at the highest bend, they rise to nearly level with the top of the valve cover. The compare them to mine, and notice that the highest bend in my headers is close to 12...

OK. I read the post very carefully. First question. " I have a '65 Dart that I've restored as a race car." Did you RESTORE the car? Is it an old race car?" If so then you need original speed parts for your restoration... yes? "I have a 360/408 that puts out 510HP." Even though this is...

Since the cowl induction hood is a Chevy thing...try a Chevy site.

It's all about the heads. How far are you going to go with them? Bigger valves? What kind of compression? are you going to have the crank peened or anything? You have 3.23 gears yes?

I've got a 4-speed console + a Hurst shifter for sale for $575. Both nice parts.

Wow, was that a dramatic progression.

Normally I don't particularly like ragtops, but that one is so clean it is hard not to love it. The Bluestreaks are a nice touch. Not enough people pay that attention to detail and I really appreciate a car done right. My car came with Bluestreaks as well, but since it is a drag car, and I have...

"Rare" is a relative terrm. Considering the 1200 or so built, any mid year introduction of a part would make it rare in my opinion. The majority of those cars were certainly built early to satisfy demand with numbers tapering off as they tooled up for the new model and year. Regarding the...

4-speeds would be 14.9% of total build. Where the logic goes wrong is that the percentage of 4-speed Formula S cars is higher than the percentage of 273 2-barrel, 4-speed cars, though the number of 273 2-barrel, 4-speed cars is most likely quite a bit higher.

I did now. That was strange...I wasn't notified in my email that I had a PM. I have to recheck my settings here. Sorry!

Blue streaks were standard on all Dart 273 4-barrel GTs with 14 inch wheels regardless. My car has disc brakes, optional 3.55 suregrip and the H-D Suspension package (rallye pack), and there is no fast ratio box.

No it won't work. I have a power shaft for a '66 if you need one.

My post should have started... All 273, four barrel, '66 Dart GTs with 14 inch wheels. Also one has to keep in mind that the Goodyear Blue Streak was NOT the highest performance option tire. D/Darts didn't come with them, and the Hemi Coronets and Belvederes had a 7.75 x 14 blackwall that was...

All 273, four barrel, '66 Darts with 14 inch wheels came from the factory with blue streaks. I know a fellow who bought a set of repop Blue Streaks for his '66 Plymouth Hemi Belvedere. They look like off road mud tires since the tread is modern radial. That was the biggest pet peeve...

Hmmm... Waupaca WI eh? Seeing I am from Stevens Point (Midnight Riders C.C.), I knew just about every decent Mopar in that area back in the late '70s. B. Smiths Plum Crazy '70 RT/SE Challenger being my fav. That and the Orange Hemi Roadrunner in Rapids. Anyway I did the whole street racing thing...

Just saw your pic. That is pretty close to exactly what mine looks like. A little machining in the curves that was never finished. Mine of course is painted, so yours is much easier to see detail.
