1963 Plymouth valiant

[derekn1963]

Hey all, i've been viewing this site since i got my valiant in 8th grade. I am now 17. Since i got my car I have: installed an 8 3/4 rear and 3.55 posi, done a front disc conversion, big bolt pattern all the way around, , some minor suspension upgrades, built a 360, plus some more stuff here and there

Hell yeah!!! I'm loving it! You're right on track pal!

You gotta love the early As, especially once you throw in a 360 and a little gear. Not to mention how it looks and sits! Stance is right on, the patina is awesome, roll bar and wheels give it some serious attitude, and it sounds like you've been doing the right mods!

Questions though, are those 340HP manifolds? Engine specs? Trans? And which roll bar kit is that, because my '64 Dart needs one!

These are not 340 manifolds. They would have come off of a 64-66 v8 a body. The roll bar kit is from the company rhodes on summit racing. Motor is bored 30 over, 10.5:1 compression, comp xe292 cam, proform 650 double pumper, edelbrock performer rpm
