They are really hard to find for any A body. Saw them in a trunk of a parts car in a pic. I got lucky. Yes old mans car with a attitude. Pretty fun. Has around 500HP in it.
63 Dodge Dart, now let me see;)

I have another question, when I was driving the Dart the other day, and the coolant temp was 145 degrees after a decent drive, is my thermostat stuck open? IT was a new T stat, a 180 degree. I was going to drive it, but not feeling that great today, but may just let it run and see what gives.
I had another gauge and let it run for another 10 minutes

If it started at the outside temp you did a great job.
Though there's more to do, but my '63 Dart I can call a driver.
Thinking back, when I chose my dart, almost 3 years ago, I had no idea of what I wanted to "restore", I was out of ideas and kind of ready to call it quits and just play with what I have. However, when I came across Tincups build, I was greatly inspired, though I could never duplicate his type of build as I don't have the knowledge, skills, but I did what I could do within my level of skill. But I don't think Tincup was reliant upon the ForAbodies as much as I have been. I've learned a great deal is an understatement! So, you guys were greatly part of my build, even if was just an occasional Like, but there were quite a few of you that went above and beyond, and you know who you are.
Now I'm anxious to show it off at the next car show/gathering
Obviously Tincups;)
and obviously mine
The day we rescued it from the salvage yard

Happy Birthday! Hope you are able to get out and drive your Dart...and get a biiig piece of cake!
A good /6 will run very cool. When I lived in South Dakota I had to block 1/2 the radiator to get heat out of my 170 cu in Barracuda 4 speed.
It's super cool to have watched this come together.
My brother did this image with his AI Grock app. for my birthday, but then the AI went on to write up a little "article" on its own, go figure;)
