    neutral safety switch/ reverse light unit in trans

    By str12-340

    I need a reality check. I had some problems with my neutral safety switch engaging, so I got a new one several weeks ago. Now car starts fine, but I realized that I lost my back-up lights. I put the car up and unplugged the switch at the trans and jumped the outer two sockets in the wire plug and the back-up lights come on. I think this means that the back-up light part of the switch is faulty, CORRECT???

    Stock 318 identification

    By tylery190

    I feel this is going to be a little long winded, apologies in advance. About a year ago I pulled a 318 out of an 85 W150 with unknown miles. It never ran right, and I wanted to put a 360 in it anyways. My 360 has a knock, (whole other story) and I’ve started pulling the 318 apart. I have one of the heads off so far, and saw that it has flat top pistons which I wasn’t expecting. Figured I would ask if that was normal, and see if anyone has anything I should make sure to check while I... Read more

    273 stroker for torque and mpg. Lets nerd out

    By cop car wagon

    Ok, boys and girls? Everyone loves strokers. 416 is common. If strokers are good, what about a 300ci torque motor? I'm trying to make the most out of a bad decision made years ago. I bought a 3.58 stroke, standard 318-340 mains crank.... why? What to do with it? I would never put it in a 340. I have 360 magnums to replace 318 magnums. So what about a 300ci for my manual trans 76 D100? I've had many motors and gear ratios in this truck. The best mileage combo so far was granny gear... Read more

    1969 Dart Pro touring daily driver **Crashed**

    By purplehazedart

    Ive got some time off collage and have decided to do some more extensive work on my first and only car so far, a 1969 dart gt. I bought the car about 5 years ago with money from summer jobs, I was really lucky because right after I got it the value of a bodies shot up and are now way too expensive for a young person to buy working part time in Sweden. I thought it would be fun to put up a build thread to share and have everything in one place. The plan is to make the car handle, grip and... Read more

    1966 Valiant Convertible For Sale

    By valiantwagonguy

    I'm selling my 66 Valiant convertible. Lost my storage space, and with my age, I am forced to part with it. The car is a survivor. It is totally rust-free with 61,000 miles on it. I am the 2nd owner and have had it for 26 years. It has always been garaged since day one. It belonged to an old lady who had a summer house in the Hamptons on LI and died. She only used it locally, and it had 52,000 on it when I bought it from the estate. It is a 6-cylinder automatic with bucket seats. Has the... Read more

    727 Question

    By Roadhunter

    I pulled my transmission for the engine removal and rebuild and noticed something. When I drained the pan there was quite a bit of sludge/butter on the magnetic drain plug. I have attached a few pictures and it seems like a lot of material. Also when I pulled the convertor I kind of shook it from side to side and looking down the shaft I could see the gears moving a little and seemed loose. I don't know anything about convertors or transmissions for that matter. I haven't been able to take... Read more

    Side markers

    By ajarofclay

    Hope this isn't too dumb of a question but... Doing a check on all my bulbs and it appeared none of my side markers worked. For those that aren't familiar with me or haven't seen me state it before, I don't know D*ck about electrical. I changed the bulbs and they do appear to work now. One popped for some unknown reason but I replaced it and it's good now. BUT, SHOULD THEY FLASH WITH THE TURN SIGNALS because mine don't. I would think they should but being that they are only five years from... Read more

    1973 Dodge Dart Sport

    By ScottofKSU

    I am another Chevy guy who found their way to some awesome Mopar cars. First, my wife's dream car was a new Challenger. She thought she wanted an SXT AWD, but I had her drive a Scat Pack/Widebody first. After that, none of the other models on the lot would suffice. So, we brought home a 2021 Challenger Scat Pack Widebody the day after Thanksgiving in 2022. Then in 2023 my dad passed away and I inherited his rust free 2001 2500 Cummins. Then my second oldest son needed a car after the 1996... Read more

    New Member from Omaha! ScottofKSU

    By ScottofKSU

    Hello Everybody! I have been a lurker here for several months after our search for my middle boy's (19) car identified a Duster/Dart Sport as what he wanted. I searched Marketplace nationwide for several months until we found an awesome, nearly rust free example in Oklahoma City. Last weekend we purchased the car, drove it 500 miles home, and now are beginning a rolling restoration. I started a thread in the restoration thread if you are interested! I am an Organizational Psychologist and... Read more

    water pump pully doesn't line up

    By Grumpyb

    New cast iron water pump I got a couple years ago and am finally putting it together , the pully on the water pump appears to be a whole groove off , I am wondering if I can put a 3 groove crank pully on it or from what I have been able to measure it looks like a big block water pump pully may fit because they have shorter snout. Brought pictures this time because the lst time I asked a question I didn't have any so if any of you saw my post about not being able to get my oil filter adapter... Read more

    65 Dart Wagon Conversion to a Sedan Delivery

    By 65 Dartman

    I finally finished cutting up the other Dart and got the wagon in the garage. A little history on the wagon in in order - I won it off eBay when I placed a bid just for the heck of it - and won it! It was supposed to be a running, driving and stopping LA car so the plan was for the wife and me to fly out and drive it back. In the end I had to have it brought back to here in VA via a transport company. It was a slant 6//904 wagon and the only option it had was power steering, not even a... Read more

    Waaaaay off topic but here goes: Post up your favorite Chili recipe !

    By Kern Dog

    The wife and I, despite being Caucasians from the suburbs, really enjoy hot food. Now it isn't good enough for the food to be hot, it has to have flavor. We have all eaten food that is stupidly hot and has no actual flavor. I don't want that. Some feel that real Chili does not have beans in it. I am willing to try recipes with and without so let's see what you suggest. I may take recipes and scale them down to smaller batches to minimize waste. I don't want to make big batches that I...

    Canadian Mopars on the street.

    By Clelan

    Let's see the Canadian Mopars on the street or parked in the coffee shop parking lot. Maybe at your local drag strip, cruise night or show. Need pics of Mopars being used like they should be. I saw this nice Challenger in the Tim Horton's parking lot here in Martensville Sk. Great to see them out of the garage and on the street. If you look close you can see his celebrity passenger still in the car. Cley View attachment 20150419_085651.jpg

    Comp Cams Evolution roller lifters

    By VF69HARDTOP

    Hi all I'm after some first had feedback on the Comp Cams Evolution roller lifters for small blocks. I'm looking at possibly using a set in my 318 with either a Comp or Howards cam and have read to Comp lifters just sneak in with heads on and have a lower pushrod seat height to help a little with the horrible pushrod angle, along with being about to rpm more than 6500rpm to give a little headroom over the Howards hydraulic roller liter that is listed for up to 6500rpm. Thanks
