Ok so I figured that I should create one of these threads in the members resto section. This is my first Mopar, picked it up for $600 off a friend.
1970 Dodge Dart Swinger /6 had power steering. Ran pretty good kicked posi in the shop :P Didn't drive it much had a little running issue so i decided to tear it apart. Make room for a 318.
After:
Engine is 318 bottom end 60 over, late model 360 magnum heads, not much done to the heads mild port and polish. has a pretty large cam not sure of the specs, was put together by a friend. mopar performance intake, edelbrock 650 carb. flowtech headers with magna flows dumped before the rear.
Has a 8 1/4 rear end, 3.23's no suregrip =(
727 torque flight, 2500 tci stall converter,
full msd setup, box wires, distributor and coil
front disk brake conversion, all new supension from P-S-T. KYB shocks on all fours. performance pads and rotors.
I'm not to concerned on the body work right now, i work 60 hour weeks and have usually only sat and sunday to schedual my life. So not a lot of time to work on her.
But overall plans are, 8 3/4 3.91 suregrip, FFI road race leaf springs, FFI 1" torsion bars, tubular upper A arms, and lighten her up, she will be a weeknd car and i would like to take her to the track like seirs point or thunderhill and road race her.
here are vids over the weeknd after i got her tuned and the timing set.
BTW Thanks to everyone that helped with my questions in the engine issue section! My rear brakes were a bit tight and I need to unadjust them.
