I have a 360 with TTI headers and I know I'm going to have to do some fabricating with my steering column. I just wasn't sure if the pitman arm or idler arm were the same. Does anyone have alignment specs once it's changed over. Thanks Rod

I have a 66 Dart with manual steering. Years ago I bought a new power steering box and pump along with hoses to do a conversion. I was wondering if anyone can tell me if any of my steering links will need to be changed? I'm thinking I might tackle that as a winter project. Thanks. Rod

Guys I appreciate all your thoughts and suggestions. I've thought about this all week and have come to the decision to put the Dart up for sale. It needs to belong to someone that will drive it. Many of you have suggested that I should drive it to the golf course. The issues with that are that...

Mopowers, I’ve got so many pics of everything on this car. I could detail the build very close by all the pics. Rod

RegularJay. The reason i dont drive it is because i love playing golf so that takes most of my weekday time. On weekends to keep peace in the family i travel to the beach so my wife can enjoy sun and sand. I myself would rather stay home on weekends but its something she really enjoys. This...

I was wondering, is there any demand for our early “A” body cars. I know there are for the Chevy Nova II, the Camera’s and the Ford Mustangs. But what about the mopars? I am considering the possibility of selling my 66 Dart. I did a major resto mod but it’s a shame that it basically just sits...

It’s been many years since I did this install. Go back to tread in the members restoration. It’s called “1966 Dodge Dart”. On page 10 about halfway down on post #233 is the section I covered the install. I have more pics I can send you if you forward me your email. I will have to find them on...

I go to 1 maybe 2 car shows a year. I just went to my first show this year 2 weeks ago. An exotic, classic, muscle car show held at a mansion. Was a very different show. The exotic cats were parked all around the frt of the mansion, classics were on the side and the muscle cars were in the rear...

I did the liner in my 66 Dart and there was no such thing on mine. Good luck with your install. Take your time and use plenty of glue. I was very happy with my final results. I can’t say it was easy but not nearly as hard as some make it sound. Rod

I have a 66 Dart Small Block that I need to pull the manual steering box off and replace it with a Power steering box. Yes I m getting to old to fight that manual steering. I was wondering if anyone had pulled a box off that had TTI headers. It looks like a very tight fit and I really dont want...

Here's mine

Thanks for the reply’s. I ran the fuel line up the inside of the passenger side frame rail. I think the worse issue is that the header on that side is about 2.5” below the gas line at the collector and then as it runs up inside the engine compartment where it gets to much heat from the header...

I’ve already put on an insulator pad under the carb plus I’ve added a spacer. It’s not a stock setup as I’ve replaced all fuel lines and I’m thinking one of the issues is that the return line in the system creates pressure when dumped back into the tank. I run a Mallory electric fuel pump with a...

That’s a fine job! Looks fantastic. Now drive it like there’s no tomorrow.

Should the Gas cap on a 66 dart be a vented cap? My reason for asking is I am trying to trouble shoot a problem that I have after I drive the car and then it sits for 5 minutes and on restart it seems to flood or be vapor locked. Thanks Rod

I was wondering if the Hood hinges can be removed without taking off the fenders and also does anyone make a spring hinge in the aftermarket world. Thanks Rod

Pishta Thanks for that information. What company/website can I do the calculation on their website. I can check the weight tomorrow then start looking for the strut that will work. Thanks Rod

Mopar Tim, I remember seeing that before but couldnt remember who did it. What it is under so I can look it up. Also do you know the weight of the trunk deck. If I remember your struts are located at a different place inside the trunk. Thanks Rod

I did the struts to mine because it looks cleaner in my opinion, it removes some weight, and I dont have to worry about greasing the slides on the track for the spring rods. However if I cant find the right strut I may have to go back which could be a problem because when I did the tub in the...

I need to find a gas strut that will hold the weight of my trunk deck lid. That one that on there now worked for about 2 days but never had enough pressure to push up and it would barely hold it in place. It's a cheap ebay style. I'm attaching pics of it with this post. From the center of the...

On my 66 Dart I run a 28x10-15 racing slick. I am using a 10” wide wheel with a 6” back space. I had to relocate the springs and do a mini tub. Not a lot of cost involved but there is a lot of labor when doing all this. Rod

Psegarra, That car looks stunning. Your chrome looks nice and the interior pops! Very nice work. You still havent found a rear window? Rod

Well just a little over 6 years from the start I can finally post pics of my car completed. I bought this in July of 2013 and have had many threads over that time and gotten lots of help here in this forum. For that I thank you all. Now I get to post a completed car. Its a 2 door hardtop, 270...

fklskv, Is your B&M cable made of something other then the plastic coating thats used on every other cable? I searched on summit and didnt find anything other then the plastic casing style. Also do you have any pics of where and how close your cable runs to the headers? Mine is going to run...

Im working on my 66 Dart. I have TCI headers on my small block and was wondering what others have done to protect the cable from being burnt by the headers. What type of wrap have you used that worked. Are there any options to use a non plastic cable housing? If so where can I get one? I plan on...

Hey Toolman, I joined here about 6 or 7 years ago and at that time Scott / pettybluedart was on here often. I havent seen him post here in years. Is there a reason? I enjoyed following him and his car. Rod

66val, Thanks if I get this thing I will get in touch and let you know. He has not answered back to me and its been 2 days now. I hate when people offer something then dont reply back. Thanks for the heads up rod

ok, thanks. That answers a lot of my questions. Guess these cars when you are in the east are not worth spending much time on. Its a shame as the car doesnt look that bad but I dont want to spend time making custom panels. Usually used parts round here are as bad as the parts that need...
