Re: 1965 CSS info??

Ok, thanks guys. Somebody offered me a '65 four eye a couple of days ago and it appears to be legit. It is a shortbed truck with a big block and the correct bucket seats along with the hood stripes that are in the right position. There is a big block in place but it cannot be factory because it is r...

Re: 383&4 speed/out of Dodge Challenger/Whats It Worth ?

I see the 4 speeds ranging from $300-$500 here. The 383's in this area are almost free no matter what condition. Unless it's nicely rebuilt with the paperwork or something? A seized but buildable 383 here is probably going to fetch $100+/-, HP may bring more to the right buyer as some would like th...

1966 Utiline M/C Swap??

On my '66 utiline(8 lug suspension-) I'm looking to swap to a dual m/c. Will a '68 Master cylinder bolt on with no mods other than the addition of a p.valve or similar??

:I have a 4 bolt m/c, so I guess I would need the adapter?

Re: Poly electronic ignition - best options please

You can buy the electronic ignition wiring harness from Mopar for less than $30, buy you a spark box, ballast resistor, and wire it up. Or you can cut the wiring harness from a '73 to about a 1980 or so Mopar from a yard and do the swap even cheaper. Easy to do! Getting rid of the points makes a wor...

Re: What should I replace my 318 with?

Good question... I guess I am stuck with a 318...since I have no intrest in getting rid of my NP435 hydraulic clutch setup. I don't want the difficult task of locating a hydraulic clutch flywheel and bellhousing for a big block, which will be expensive once I do locate the items. Don't make a hydrau...
