    1964-66 A body Gen 3 motor mounts

    amc hemi swap

    Yeah we asked Freiburger if that was going to be an annual thing (Tucson). He 2020 for sure but not sure after that. What gauges are you using?

    amc hemi swap

    Badass build!! I was going to ask if you were the one who built the blue power wagon (I’m on pirate too). You have to bring it to the zip tie drags at Tucson in January

    5.7 in a 64 valiant

    I would like to see that build. I've never seen one done(stock front end). I have a ‘64 273/4spd car. I want a 6.4/6spd set up soo bad, I can taste it! Lol. I actually have a 5.7 right now but have decided to put it in to my Studebaker. The price of a new front suspension plus the engine/trans...

    '05 Hemi ?'s

    Thank you for that. My problem is I have an early A. A few inches narrower than the 67+ cars. A whole new set of problems! Lol

    '05 Hemi ?'s

    Thank you! That's what I was looking for on the valves. I'll check into having the seats pinned, for peace of mind. Loganscuda...what radiator did you use? JohnnyMac... as we all know budget is a relative term. Lol. At the moment, I'm thinking MS Gold box for engine management. I have no...

    '05 Hemi ?'s

    I'm not looking to spend money if I don't have to. What goes wrong with the valves? Does it lose a retainer or a valve seat? I would like to prevent it if possible, that's what I'm really after here. My next real problem is getting the hemi into the early A with the stock suspension! Lol

    '05 Hemi ?'s

    Thanks for the replies! Of course I plan to run a rev limiter. I understand what your saying. I'm just saying those are possible reasons for more rpms over an auto. Any rate, how do I determine if it's ever been overheated? I don't want to be crossing the desert and lose an engine with my...

    '05 Hemi ?'s

    I was planning on putting a cam in it and some type of header. Leaving the truck intake/efi, at least for now. I figure the engine will see probably 6500 and less rpms. The reason I say the 4spd/rpm thing is because of the possibility of missed shifts, staying the gear until the last once of...

    '05 Hemi ?'s

    I have an '05 truck hemi I want to put into my '64 Valiant. I understand that they drop valves or valve seats? What/how do I resolve that problem? Also I was told they have weak piston and rods. What company makes a good, affordable set up? The car is a 4spd so it will see some rpms.

    Supercharged 6.4L in a 64 Valiant

    I can take it home and make sure it gets properly handled! :steering:

    Supercharged 6.4L in a 64 Valiant

    Lmao! Yeah, I have a CDL so I have to be careful. I drive with my foot on the floor most of the time, anyways. With that kinda power I would either be arrested or dead!

    Supercharged 6.4L in a 64 Valiant

    Wow!! I need to come by see that in person! It looks damn good! I'm thinking mine just might follow suit expect for a 6spd trans and no blower (I would probably lose my license with that much power! Lol) Who did the windshield? I need one badly!

    Supercharged 6.4L in a 64 Valiant

    You could weld like 6x6 piece of sheet metal on under the supports to spread the load

    That looks great!! I want that tire size under mine. Any more pics or a build thread?

    Not a Hemi but a 3.6 V6

    That's great and I'm happy for you. Unfortunately some of us don't have access to the tools you do, so we're stuck paying for it. Any idea on how wide this 3.6 is? I have a '64 Valiant and I'm really considering this swap down the road. I've read the engine compartment is around 2inches narrower...

    Not a Hemi but a 3.6 V6

    I did not know Hotwire builds a harness for it. I recently saw QuickTime has a bell housing. I've heard about the turbo/super kits for new challengers (neighbor was going to buy one but never did). I met a guy with a nice 300 that said he was buying a twin turbo kit that was good for 600hp. That...

    Not a Hemi but a 3.6 V6

    I'm a truck driver so shifting doesn't bother me...too much. My 05 Cummins has a 6spd and it's a pain in LA traffic. My Valiant is 4spd, so it's staying manual. I have a complete 5.7 Hemi with a 5spd auto sitting in storage. The wiring for that is not too bad because of the company's that do it...

    Not a Hemi but a 3.6 V6

    I'm kinda interested in this swap. I would want a turbo on it. I think the power to weight ratio would be pretty good but the wiring/computer stuff seems like it would be a nightmare.

    Supercharged 6.4L in a 64 Valiant

    Unreal!! I love it! I just read the whole thread right now. You're not far from me. I want to see it person one day. I pick up my 64 Valiant HT V8 4spd AC bucket seat car next Monday. You have my dream engine combo. In the first couple of pics there is a falcon/ranchero in the back ground. What...

    Tincup's 63 Dart w/5.7 Hemi

    Car looks great! I picked up a '64 Valiant V8 4spd with AC. I want to kinda follow your chassis build up. What made you choose the Alterkation over other suspension kits? Is there anything you would do differently today?

    Tincup's 63 Dart w/5.7 Hemi

    I tripped on a clean '64 Dart last weekend and instantly thought of this car. Do you still have it? How is it holding up?

    Tincup's 63 Dart w/5.7 Hemi

    I have always like those little things! Some guy in my cousins hood has like 3-4 of those things, including a fastback. The dart is beautiful!!

    What kind of money does the FAST XFI Hemi kit go for? I have never priced anything besides Hot Wires harness.

    HemiTronix

    He said it converts to the GM style electronics..hence the need for new coils. The nice part is any decent shop can tune a stupid chevy. He also said if you tell him what cam, intake, and anything else done to the engine, he will provide a base tune. The one thing I forgot to ask was if it will...

    http://nutterracingengines.com/hemitronix/hemitronix_background.html Anyone seen this yet? I called and talked to them. They said $2500 for it! :glasses7: It includes everything you need and then some. He said it could be tuned for boost/nitrous/blower or whatever. He gives you...

    My 69 Fastback 5.7 is almost done after 5 years!

    Beautiful!! Nice color choice! Where was this picture taken? I'll look for it at the Spring Fling.
