    Improving Manual Brakes

    By 72Duster440

    My current setup is a Dr Diff 15/16" manual brake master, with an old SSBC disk brake conversion up front, with 68 Mustang pads and the Dr Diff 10.7" rear disk setup with 03 cobra pads on it. The car brakes ok, I can lock up the front brakes, but it sure isn't easy. When I am braking heavily, the car doesn't have that deceleration feel like the brakes are really grabbing. It almost feels like I'm coasting to a stop, or locking them up, there's no in between. I know its manual... Read more

    Wont start!

    By Dustem

    Haven't driven the car in several months. Leave trickle charger on battery. Electric holley blue pump is on switch in dash. Turned on pump no problem. Turn key to run position, no problem. As soon as the key is in start position I hear a click and dome light goes off. No power for lights or anything. After 15 minutes dome light comes back on, headlights work. Turn key to start again, hear click and lose all power. Battery is in the trunk. Wire ran to starter for power. Other than that all... Read more

    Air Gap hood clearance

    By Jarlaxle

    I...may not be selling my 73 Duster after all. I might be fixing it...so I want to avoid the screw-ups that result in thrown tools. Current setup is a Magnum 360 with an Edelbrock Air Gap intake, AVS carb, bogus 6bbl air cleaner, and stock hood with a Demon scoop. I want to replace this with a flat hood...but that Air Gap intake is tall. The question is: will the Air Gap intake clear a stock Duster hood? It's not clear with the current setup, but it looks like it would be VERY close. Anyone... Read more

    Proportioning Valve / Idiot Light: what gives ??

    By dartman59

    Hi there. 1971 Swinger with the 73+ front disc / rear drum upgrade that I’ve been running for over ten years. Recently, I replaced the master cylinder and the proportioning valve/brake warning switch, both of which I got from Dr Diff. That was about 500 miles ago, and no problems since UNTIL just a few days ago. I had set my parking brake, and, as usual, the bright red idiot light on the dash illuminated. Later in the evening, I started her up, released the parking brake, and the idiot... Read more

    Against the family wishes!

    By jinxd12

    New to the Mopar "muscle" scene but not new to wrenching on projects. I traded a Harley Ultra Classic 100th Anniversary for a 72 Dart Swinger that needs some work but is close to road worthy! The family is a Chevy blooded family so I'm going against the grain with this Dart. Lots of reading to still be done as nothing is similar to the chevy stuff we have worked on for years. No crazy plans for the Dart, it's getting a rear end built by AZ Differential (Nate) this week and hoping to get... Read more

    Duster fuel line

    By 72dustervs

    Trying to make a new fuel line to accept the Edelbrock carburetor installed , and making these beads suck to do half way right , and with fuel I did not want leaks , but the bead tools are pricey , I ended up buying the Parker hand bead tool 416 , believe they were made during WW2 , but unsure , but the Graham tool was over $300 with shipping and the Earl's EZ-Beader part #008ERL is sub par at best an close to $100 ,, so I got the vintage parker hand bead tool off ebay for $150 but guess I...

    I've never been a fan of 'Standard' time...

    By ocdart

    Having lived all my life in SoCal, starting from the beginning of school age I've been a fan of Daylight Saving Time since it always provided additional outside play time after school and during the summer. Growing up it also provided more time after work to get something done outside. Standard Time usually meant starting the workday just after the sun came up and going home as the sun went down leaving only the weekends to enjoy being outside. As we get older we develop a fairly general... Read more

    69 M code Barracuda questions

    By slob4

    I started to disassemble my 69 M code fastback today. Numbers matching, pretty original car. It was the great Big Block Dave’s car that I purchased from Cuda Dave. Car was hit in the front and the front clip was replaced. From what I can tell the car is completely original from there . So two questions for all of the M code experts. 1. Car is a second batch car with a build date of 302 on the data tag, when where these cars actually built . The 5.5 rims on the car are dated 4/10/69... Read more

    My 1972 F7 Dart Swinger

    By j_anderson

    I want to document what I'm doing. This process started a while back so, I'll try to give a bit of summary... I purchased this car in 1996 when I was 16 years old. The vehicle was listed for sale in the local Peddlers Post. It was for sale about 90 minutes from where I lived. I gave my father the money and he went to look the car over. He decided it was worth the asking price of $900. So, he paid the man and drove it home. I had to work so, I was not along for the ride. Originally... Read more
