you can always hammer in the inner fender wells, it gives that extra witout having to actually hack up the wells.

I mean a sledge hammer to the inner well, not fender lip.
It might be easier and less deforming to just cut the lip that rolls inward off of the wheel house all together, but I cant see in person what you're dealing with, so Im just throwing it out there.

I only suggested that, as I suspect you'll be looking for more power (turbo, perhaps?) in the not too distant future. Kenny Newsome here had a 6cyl Duster & did pretty well with it (12s) some years ago & that was with technology from back then (1980s) without a turbo.
As easy as it is to turbo a car now,even with junk parts, no doubt in my mind your /6 could take it & run a number like that, or better! Grant it, it wouldn't be "easy", but more than do-able..........

yea mu issue is the leaf spring... if i did an inboard kit i could fit like a 28x12 or something lol

no worries! i thought about building a turbo motor but i like the challenge of NA stuff... but as i told wild i would have to do an inboard spring kit

Wheel shims.
or...offset shackels.
you could even hack the front hangers eyelets off, then stack them offset using 1/4 steel to give you a lil titty of clearance.
I think that along with the offset shackles would set you straight.

Oh, I agree--I prefer the N/A stuff over the simple power add-ons. I think when Kenny ran his /6 he did a ton of work on the head & ran a bit more compression than most /6 racers. How are you in those areas?

Slant and AFX Guy
already talking about titties wild?? lol... yea i might go offset shackles so i can fit some nice street tires under it and have plenty of room for any slick i'll ever need...
well its "just" a street motor but running 10:1 src, .475 valve lift/246 @ .050 cam, head is flowing about 205/160 so my limiting factor is compression and valve lift... my head flows max @ .550 so i have alot on the table with lift (might be getting funds for 1.6's shortly)...

Hey 805, Good to see you posted the dart!! Haven't been on for some time. Our damned daily driver could not be fixed so we had to pop on a new car. Got a killer deal though. I will resume work on the Dart as soon as I can. Still working on the brake system.

ok well all the 3/8 fuel line and pump is in and done! havn't removed the mech one yet, need to get some 3/8 steel line so i can bend it up...
Johnny dart, that is the street carter pump, i used the supplied bracket and used 90* fittings on the pump. then just cut the steel line back a bit so i could use rubber to make the gap... the pump is VERY quiet... i cant hear it on with the motor running...
i tried the slicks but even with 4.5BS they arn't in enough... but that might be good cuz i didn't know slicks can get wobbly so im doing the SS cutouts and adding a 1/4" spacer for more leaf to tire clearance...

bump

Wow,
Why a bump without any update, makes no sence!
By the way, nice buildup, i hope it can spin the slicks in N/A mode, and its a shame you having to cut the rear 1/4 pannel for tire clearance, i never like the looks of it, not even in the factory SS darts, it make it look like a half *** job IMO,
Dont get me wrong, your work looks 100% correct and well done none the less.
