I do not. Car idles and sounds great. The only issue I’m having is once it’s warmed up I’m getting some backfire. (Honestly can’t tell if it’s coming back through the carb or coming out the exhaust, which I guess would be after fire). Thought maybe starting with the fuel filter, adjusting the...

To be honest endplay isn't much of issue. Neither are the bushings. The only bushings needed would be in the pump or tailshaft housing. The most difficult part of the job is seating the front clutch piston. Since the seal sets in a blind hole and the piston can not be rotated. Using 3 c clamps...

There isn't a Mopar small block on the planet that is close to 500". 440" is about as big as I've ever seen. Most are in the 420"-430" range with a R3 block. If the R3 block is even legal for FAST. Doug

Yes, I know about the floor jack trick. That seems to be the safest way. Thank you. Mike

G, day from Australia:welcome:

Welcome

It was covered in MCG years ago. It had been put in there landfill. When they were doing some digging for a shop expansion, the remains of the car were uncovered. Not much left.

This car was very original. I hand painted the original black undercoating and cleaned the original greenish paint. Just posting this as a decent guide for restorations.

There was a guy I knew that imported a car like that black Valiant, his was blue. It was like you stated...from the windshield rearward it looked identical to a USA Dart except for the "Valiant" letters on the back. The fenders looked longer and had turn signals on the tops near the headlights...

All diferent ECU's tested some for a race car some to run, some for the trunk. Prices in the pics with the number.

I haven't been on the site for some time -- I'll try to check in more often.

Sorry about that, got distracted on other issues.

If I'm not mistaken, the headliners (and the trunk divider) were flocked vs. paint. That's how they achieved that short fuzzy look. Spray headliner with glue, select the correct color flocking, liberally sprinkle the flocking on the glue, let dry, shake excess flocking off.

I kinda figured that too, I didn’t think it would start with ballast receptor in.

Thanks Ron.

And how do you know these housings cavitate? Is it because the engine overheats?

[1] Fitting on the intake runner. Use that for a vacuum device: brake booster, headlight door, heater vent door. NOT for PCV. Those rubber block off caps are notorious for cracking, causing air leaks. [2]. PCV. Might have been disconnected because it was gummed up. A working PCV will rattle...
