gonna try to the best of my abilities and money wise. legendary interiors has everything i need so far and i'm thinkin about pullin the headers off because they have a leak or jus double up on the gaskets and fix it.
 
and it's got a 318 bored .30 over with a 4brl on top but it's jus too big of a carb for what i need as a daily driver.

I just threw away a 2 barrel intake off a 78. But I was told about one that takes a large 2 Barrel I will see if I can find out which Mopar it came from. I plan on a 340 build in Feb or March.

I put a 360 intake on my 318 it is mix matched but for $26.00 at Pull A part and $30.00 at a machine shop to have it boiled out then sandblasted it was worth it. I picked up a EdelBrock 600 carb no choke for $150.00 it was to small for a friends Chevy truck.

Next intake will be alum.
 
this engine came out of a truck that was built for hill climbing. i don't know the tranny or the cam specs. dad took the 2 brl intake back to fla with him they have an industrial parts washer at the garage he works at so he's gonna clean it up then when i find a 2 brl carb we're gonna put it on.

Cool if you are ever in Winston-Salem let me know. I know where there is a couple of junkyards to go to. Hopefully I know where a 3rd one is after the first of the year.
 
Junkyards???? Man I need an old car fix. You give guided tours of those yards??
 
Truthfully not that much at the moment since the cars and I are not in the same place. But I DO need a nice pair of tail lights for my 72 Duster. I'm also what you might call a "hunter gatherer". If I see some good parts, I gather them lol

I hate to say it most of the older Mopars are picked clean. I heard of one place but I haven't found it yet
 
I'm sorry for the Hi Jack what is the latest on your Road Runner?
 
the drivers side rear wheel kept goin flat the previous owner told me it had a vavle stem leak so i got that replaced was fine until i put it back on the car then it went flat the next day. took it to walmart the technician inflated it and 20 mins later came back and told me there was nothin wrong with it he couldt find a leak, next day....flat again. took it back to walmart and in 5 mins a different technician told me the bead was leakin so he broke the tire down and showed me where the rim had rusted before and was pitted so the weight of the care was breakin the seal. he put in some bead sealer and since the other guy didn't find the leak before it was all free and the tire hasn't leaked since.

got an air cleaner for it, new battery, turns over on the first try gettin it registered tomorrow then down to get the oil changed.
