dear engine master guy,ive been hearing talk about the Heads that were developed for a racing series in Brazil or argentina.
supposedly
@@RobsMusicBox , that's interesing. I have seen the racing in the countries you've mentioned and it's pretty cool.
Have you tried that engine on trumpets with fully rolled radius? Would have been nice to see the difference on extractors too.
@@jjmac3561 , no but I believe there would be further gains in doing so. Yes, a good set of pipes, custom made top fit would also net some gains.
@@RobsMusicBox this is true as the straight sixes were/are very popular esp in Argentina where the Ford Falcon is an icon. I have heard the same thing about these multivalve conversion heads but, because they aern't 750 hp engines, like US racing V8's, there isn't much mention.
anyone here from uncle tony.
Me, I wanna know the general consensus on this
tony brought me here. great work and i've subbed!
Uncle Tony sent me, and glad he did! Awesome build fellas.
UncleTony sent me from the States. Glad I stopped by. Good stuff
That was impressive.
I have traveled at least 150,000 miles behind that nifty little six.
For many years my get to work cars were either Valiant or Duster with the six.
I live in Wisconsin in the north of America and the winters could be really cold in January in the 1970's.
I have no idea how many times my rusty old Valiant slant six fired right up after sitting out in minus 10 F weather but some newer cars would not. I would drive my humble little car around and offer jump starts to much newer cars. They would look in amazement at it.
Starters were not nearly so reliable back then, but thank God they were right there and easy to get at. I kept a spare in the trunk and could swap one in less then five minutes. Then I would repair the defunct one in a few days.
They were rugged and dependable. They saved me a lot of money on travel expenses. I never dreamed I would see one make that much HP.
They salt the roads here in winter so unfortunately the cars get rusty. I had to put a section of plywood in the trunk to keep the spare tire from falling out. I even used pop rivets and metal flashing to patch holes in the floor under my feet. The body would rot away but that tough little engine just kept on going.
Hi Mike, thanks for sharing your story with us. They sure are a dependable engine.
I've heard of keeping spare radiator hoses, fan belts, spark plugs & points in the boot, but not a spare starter motor. Most are just too hard to get at if you're stuck on the side of the road with a dud starter. Obviously, the slanty has the starter on the upper side of the motor.
I know a man I hunted with (Sam Walton of Wal-Mart fame!) who put over 460,000 MILES on a 225 Slant Six in a Grey D150 Pick-em-up with a Torque-Flite! He parked it when the frame rusted enough it "hogged" or bent and bound-up the drive-shaft. He replaced it with his famous (used) red 360 V-8 Power-Wagon 4WD pick-up, I think he had until he died for a huntin'/fishin' truck. I used to drive over from Tulsa to Bentonville (first when he STILL had the Western Auto Store) and quail and Spring Turkey hunted with him. I never got a turkey, but got some quail with his Brittany Spaniels in upland Ozarks brush. He was one heck-of-a-fine-man.
it’s cool to see someone utilizing a slant-6 in their ride, as opposed to LS-Swapping, Crate Motoring, or another 6 to 8 cylinder conversion. there’s absolutely nothing wrong with either, as I’m a ‘whatever makes you happy, do it’ kind of guy. it’s just rare that people set out rebuilding their Slants for performance, though this upload will no doubt open some eyes & minds to giving their Slants another chance at life. too cool, Dudes..too cool. these are great times.
Hi guys, I really enjoy watching you "down under" men do great things with that ' leaning tower of piwer'!!!!
Great video and killer results, but that reversion is something else. I had no idea it would be that severe. Probably a combination of reverse flow head and the short runner exhausts. Much food for thought now...thanks!
Thanks for hooking us up with this artist!
It would be interesting to see the reversion on a high speed camera.
It would be interesting to hear David Vizard's take on this reversion. he's had a career of working with Weber's and or direct port carbs.
RUclips community 👌👌
Wow ..just wow on so many levels.. I guess the good old engineering at Chrysler was right . Super cool to see in real time.
G'day sent here from UTC. Liked and subbed.
My Dad was in sales in the early 60's. He was driving as much as 60K miles a year. For much of that he was driving a Dodge and a Plymouth Valiant with slant sixes. He told me he stopped at an auto scrap yard one time and the owner showed him a large warehouse with slant sixes stacked on pallets almost to the roof. They were salvage from wrecks and the guy told Dad there was no demand for them because they just didn't wear out.
When I got out of high school, I serviced commercial two way radios. That slant six was the most popular taxi cab engine. At that time I drove a Fury with a 318. The 318 was one of those indestructible engines.
Glad he did not encounter an old Peterbuilt truck that could do with a wash.
Just watch the engine during a pull, so smooth. The Chrysler slant 6 is such a great power plant. My old man owned over a dozen Valiants over the years when I was a kid, all of them had the 225 Slant 6. I can still remember going on a trip to rescue a broken down 72 seater Leyland bus and towing it over 200 miles in a 68 Valiant Safari wagon, up and down hills, it didn't care one bit. Nothing fancy either, bone stock but completely rebuilt/refreshed. Every time I hear an i6 it sends me back to family road trips and good times.
Among the US manufacturers of that era, Chrysler had the best engineers.
50 yeas ago in the US, six cylinder engines were popular because for a young male you got a much better insurance rate. While in school , I remember these engines in teenagers cars. The most popular was that slant six and the Ford 300.
1982 I was max flat out in my 351 XB GT and was passed by a warm 225 VG 3. GOLD!
Sounded awesome too.
ive heard they can go, interesting to learn from your experience.
351 XB what a chunk of shit like driving a out of control boat.
@@grimreaper6112 sounds like my old 360 val
VGs had a hemi ?
@@clutchkicker392ison5 sounds right my friend had a seriously worked 265S block in a vg sedan
If not for the competitive edge of Ford and Chevrolet Corp. There would not have been such as strong MOPAR slant six developed. Bravo all car manufactures.
My wife-to-be taught school in a little town in the north of the Canadian province of Alberta. In those days the attendants filled your tank and checked your oil. One guy comes running up and says: Miss, you better come here right away - you engine is falling out! So she runs up front and sure enough - there it is leaning over. The gas station towed her back to the dealer where the mechanics and he destroyed themselves in laughter. She drove 30 miles to nother gas station ever after. 😍😍😍 God bless her memory.
Uncle Tony’s Garage sent me. Beautiful engine!
Welcome!
The slant 6 has such a sweet sound!
I have seen a Mopar parts book with part numbers for all Chrysler engines. Each section shows what parts you need to make different horsepower, so slant six- from 225 hp- 1100 HP,
Chrysler's engineers figured out the parts for each engine an the HP you would like, I'm not kidding, I obtain manuals from a dealership that was closing, I eventually gave it to a friend.
Just think, Case ran these motors in harvesters, dodge run them in various trucks and of course the Valliant.
A very versatile engine.
Oliver combines had them
@@donaldshidal851 so did forklifts. A guy I worked with many years ago drove combat river boats in Vietnam said the one he piloted had twin slants for power. He said it was fast.
They were in other Dodge cars, too, even Chargers
@@donaldshidal851
I recon you're American mate, what you call a combine harvester we call a header. They were like the Holden Red Motor.
The red motor was in forklifts, concrete agitators and too many other uses to mention. Mind you they were both awesome donks. The "red" was huge in power boats or ski boats but I always wondered how the old slant would go in a boat. I think they would have been great.
You guy's "Down Under", have some really unique and special cars. I'm a Roadrunner Nut back here in Pennsylvania and raced quite a bit at York US 30 Dragway and South Mountain Raceway back in the early 1970's. Keep the sport alive mate! Mopar or No car!!!
TMI... zzzzzz
On ya
The 225 slant 6 AND the old Valiant car are both almost direct imports from the USA. Certainly nothing unique about them, except for minor changes to suit AU conditions, Right Hand Drive, etc.
That really is a slick intake setup.
My first car had one of these. Great engine always started. 1978 Plymouth Volare.
Greetings from New Jersey, USA. That is one BAD-ASS Slant-6.. I grew up back in the early 80's helping my uncle work on those smooth running engines. 170,194,225 etc.. Great Video.
Thank you for your hard work on the 225!
The motor is probably the best thing ever to come out of the factory.
I had a 61 Valiant SW that I did a complete down to the nuts and bolts resto on and put the slant six back in it (after some serious massages 🤭)
The car was the ultimate sleeper,no it was a sleeping Giant!
Now mind you; the build was done back in the day before you could "chip up"your performance qualities,but I sure had a ton of good times getting the "Hot rods"pissed off by putting them to shame with a quick reaction and that monster torque when I went out front of them and held my own all the time.
I really appreciate you getting my blood flowing just listening (AND seeing) Your beautiful work👍
Jim Johnson Jr 🤪
Probably the single best engine Chrysler ever had. Our family's best of many went 350K. Only major repair beyond maintenance was a water pump. And still running when it went to the scrap yard.
Most underrated engine ever! Love those carbs!
Nice set of Aussie built header pipes, nice video Glen enjoyed, cheers 🥂🍻🍺🥂🍻🍺 KC Cradle Mountain Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺🤝🇦🇺🇦🇺😎👍
I love the motors. They were so smooth and powerful yet economical right out of the factory. But nobody generally did anything cool with them in the US. They just left dad's car alone. V8s got all the love from the hot rodders. Glad to see this fine piece of motor craft being appreciated.
As far as the slant six goes you are right but I couldn't get better that 15 mpg in a 65 dart. I had gotten a slant six convertible and a 318 wagon. The 318 got 17-18 mpg. Hell my ford 390 had better mpg. It was the only downside with them, worse mileage and horsepower.
@@leitheparsons1186 That's not so good, is it. I guess back then, economical for an American car was 15-18mpg really. As compared to big V8 , something like 8-12mpg, right?
@@Joshualbm well I had a 64 galaxie with the 390 and on road trips, I could get 19 mpg. I know that sounds insane but that's what it got. I would take the slant six occasionally back and forth from Portland and Seattle and it would 15 mpg. Th hats when my interest faded on slate sixes
In Australia the other Chrysler Six the 265 ci Hemi was the top performance option , in the Aussie Chargers , the V8 s were second option ,
I've never personally owned a slant 6 Mopar motor but I've heard nothing but praise from folks who "have" owned them. They are darn near bullet proof and very reliable. You now have a new subscriber.
Had one in a 1962 Dodge Dart. That thing was amazingly resistant, just wouldn't break! Wanted to live forever!
Awesome! I want to like this twice!!
Well done!!!
Great work men
The slant 6 was indestructible!
Clyde Norwood of Precision Engines Waxhaw NC. USA built an almost stock 225 that developed about that horsepower range but developed 550 ft lbs of torque. He retired shortly thereafter. (Almost stock with a turbo charger).
Great job guys, thanks for sharing.
That made some great power should scoot that Valiant along real good it's making more power then a 273 or 318 V8
I have always been a fan of the Slant Six, and this is the best one I have ever seen! And the sound it makes is magnificent!
This hot rodded 270 hp Slant Six is more reasonable for hot rodding than a 600 hp Chevy LS,
It wouldn't t overpower the chassis.
Cast iron block and head combo, the inline six has been proven to be the best balanced, easy layout, endless evolvement, and incredible durability…from agriculture to aircraft this design really is the future made over again….I simply works
G'day from the US of A, I have a slant 6 in my 68 dodge charger, one of only 906 ever built and I absolutely love my slant. Runs like a top, gets good fuel mileage for a 56 year old motor and I drive it every day.
I love the symphony of this engine at 6000 RPM. Pure music to the ears.
Back when I was young and traveled all over the country I did it in a 69 dodge van with a super 225 and three on the tree.. I bet when it died it had five hundred thousand on it.. one of the best motors I've owned.. now my gen two Cummins in my 2500 01 is pushing 400 thousand and still runs great and is pushing a close second for next best!
Gotta love a slant 6
My dad got a dodge 150 pickup the last year they put the slant 6 in that pickup. That truck still started and ran at 232,000 miles when he sold it. It was a true truck; no air, no power steering, no power windows, AM radio only. You couldn't kill that thing!
This isn’t so wild, HOT ROD magazine did similar builds back in the early 60s. Ah, thé great old days of experimentation and hot ridding. Back then, no matter where, whomever won on Sunday, be it a drag or oval win, that sold on Monday. There were many people from Cana,Virginia, that had many, many hot Fords. They didn’t have any Chevy lovers back then, VietNam happened and I lost track! But, great vlog, thanks for posting and sharing with us. Got a 67 Mustang w/200 c.I., let’s do this to it! In my dreams!
Just had my slant rebuilt for my 85 dodge truck. Love the slant,it’s a very special engine. It’s ready for another 30 years of dependable service. So nice to see others enjoying some of mopars engineering. Great video,beautiful build. Thanks Tony for bringing this to my attention. Note.. don’t let these motors go to the scrap yard anymore,they deserve to be kept alive. Thank you.
I totally agree V8's and strait 6's and slant 6's are my favorites
Dude i bought my first mopar with a 225 and holy fuck are they fun and reliable engines, definitely a mopar dude for life now
I had a '71 Duster with a 225 slant 6 and a 727. It was a beater overall, but man was it reliable, and generally easy-peasy to work on. Like to have another (nicer) one, whether with a 225 or a V8.
Had a 1965 shortbed Dodge with one of these in it. Wish I could have done something like this to that engine - less drastic cam, maybe, and smaller carbs…
What I would have done to drop that baby in my 71 Duster back in 1984 when I got my drivers license!
Fantastic build guys!
I wish Chrysler had built a smaller coupe the size of the BMW E30 and improved the slant six to be more than just an economy motor.
More torque than horses, and they're both jacked up nicely. I like it!!!
My dad was a huge slant 6 fan. He would have loved this engine.
That engine would have turned my old 1979 Doge Aspin station wagon into a tire burning sleeper car. I am very impressed!
I bought a 318 Aspen wagon in 88 to tour the states, slept in the back. Greeting from Australia 🇦🇺.
Hey, Glenn. I heard about your channel while watching Uncle Tony's Garage. He was pretty danged impressed by your work, so I simply HAD to check it out... And I can see why Tony thought you were worth watching! He was absolutely correct btw! That's a SWEET Slant!!!
That's how I got here too. Nice stuff going on.
Great to have you here! Thanks for your kind words. I'm also a fan of UTG, he has some great content.
Comment for the algorithm 👍.... love the slant six! My first car was a 1980 LeBaron with a 225.
The intake and exhaust setup is simultaneously stunning and awesome!
Thanks for the video.
225ci = 3.68L
Nice engine. Inline6 engines always sound smoother then any Xplane V8.
It would be fun to compare this engine to what can be done with a Jaguar XK 3.8L engine from the same era. The XK has an alu Xflow head, dohc and half spherical combustion chambers and a similar exhaust setup.
My 1965 100 1/2 ton has the original 225 Slant Six that has 240,000 miles...my Grandfather left it to me when he passed in 1998
I drove these engines for years. 68 Valiant and two different 75s. Great design.
Love seeing what can be done with traditional straight 6s, This slant 6 is the dogs danglies, I think the Aussies show what can be done with Mopar and Fords 6s, those Barra turbos are off the scale awesome 😎
Had a 1964 in 1964 and it would beat a 6 cylinder Mustang lite to lite downtown...225ci 3 speed stick on column. plane Jane not even a radio.
You should look up what in Argentina we do with straight sixes from Dodge, Ford, Chevrolet, and the Cherokee 4.0 from the Jeep. Imagine hearing a 60s nova or Falcon screaming at 8k rpm from a straight 6
This is in Argentina, the straight six for us is like the V8 for the Americans. Just look at this, from the 9 minute mark. ruclips.net/video/mmlYgVAyx1s/видео.html 305hp at 7600 rpm
I had a AP6 Stationwagon with the slant six in the early eighties. Still one of the best engines I've ever owned.
In stock 170 to 225 it was very reliable . I owned them when I was a teenager and I thrashed them without any problems .
There should be an internet gold medal. You deserve it.
My dad had a 225, slant six in his Ve Valiant ute. It was a three on the tree. I remember going for drives in it as a family on the weekends. When there was four of us in it, I would be sitting right next to him and occasionally he would punch me up the chin when he put it into second gear ! Ha, I remember I learnt to drive in it too when I was a young kid. It never slowed down up hills in 2nd gear even going slow. It had sump loads of torque from the long stroke motor.
Great video and result.
Thanks mate, I know you guys appreciate a bit of Mopar Muscle, glad you liked it.
Love them old cast iron Motors nothing could hurt them . 🥰
My brother has a 64 Valiant here in Canada. When we were in high school (1979) we rebuilt it in our mechanics class. Had lots fun, good memories.
Cheers from Southern California.. I have two 68 Dodge Darts in my life.. my ladies is still Slant6 and mine was, now 318.. when I drive her car. I miss that Slant6.. something odd about it.. unique.. I will always want Your Aussie Six . "Hemi Six" what a beast.. what a build you have here..

Sent by Uncle Tony. Beautiful build.. Subscribed! 🍻
Awesome! Thank you! We love UTG too.
Hi Glen... I always wanted to see a dyno with a hotted up slant with multiple webbers...
Fantastic work! ... 300hp... Almost there. 👍👌.
Ho... By the way.... My son lives in Warrigal!.
Which Break in Oil did you use?
I've always been wanting to see a slant six hit 300 horsepower, but they never seem to be able to hit that Mark without a turbo.
@@danr9584 Turismo Carretera did pass the 300hp mark back in the 80s. It was the norm. An slant six actually managed to go 195 mph
@@danr9584 the aus 265 six had over 300hp factory back in the 70s
@@Toxic2T and with only one double barrel Weber
That slant 6 sounds great.
Love that 225 slant six Great little motor
Better headers with heat insulation from the carbs should help overall performance and daily street stop & go driving .
Another Mmmmopar
Love it
I have always liked the Slant 6 engine. This modified engine has more torque, but less horsepower than the current stock 3.6L v6.
Back in 1993, I had a Dodge Dart powered by the Slant 6. I got an Offenhauser manifold and Clifford headers for it. Installed a Carter AFB out of the box. Improved the ignition to a Mallory electronic with the large coil. It passed the California emissions testing. Got 27mpg on the highway. And Chevy V8 powered car drivers swore the engine had to be a hemi. And were very shocked to see a little Slant 6.
Had a 71 Scamp with a 225. My dad bought it new. 11 years later I got it, after my brother, then sister.
Can't wait to see this in the Ap6 with a follow-up video if possible, thanks. Really stout /6.
Very close to a Slant-6 I built for my Plymouth Valiant when I lived in France. Of course, at the time, Slant-6 performance parts were only available in Australia. Mine had 2 major differences ; a 600cfm 4-bbl Edelbrock carburettor with an AussiSpeed equal-length runner intake manifold and more accessories (power steering pump, air-conditioning compressor).
Nice mate
What kind of mileage did u get
@@redlight3932 about 13l/100km with an Edelbrock 650cfm 4-bbl carburettor. It went down to 10-11 with fuel-injection.
I still have the 63 Dart GT I drove in high school. ( 1975 ). It doesn't take much to make the slanties come alive. All I did to mine was a .030 over bore, mild cam, headers, Offenhouser 4 barrel intake, Pertronics ignition conversion, and a Holly 390 cm carb. Dyno'ed it at Bakersfield College in 77, produced a solid 200 hp @ 4900 rpm.
That is a truly gorgeous slanty. I would love one put into my 1965 Ford Ranchero, Ford 9-inch rear, Tremec 6-Speed and this Beast. I'd call it "Fo-Mo-Par"... ^~^
I love how you Aussies go heavy on the duration and compression! nice to see. The long-stroke, small-bore begs for that kind of duration lift. I like the exhaust headers but they must really heat the intake!
It helps to wipe the headers - today a fuel injector system wouldn't hurt.
@@mrnobody8540 @Glenn Everitt Wrap the headers. :) Cliford Research sold a tin plate that went under the Webers and header back in the 1970's.
@@davej3487 sure it didn't have a sheet of asbestos in it too? 🤣
Intakes are ceramic coated, so I'm sure that helps
Ah those good old days. I remember by VC V8 that i used to have with a 340 that now sports a milder but much more enjoyable cruising 318....... What awesome machines they are.
I did that in 1978.
3 DCOE that would not stop leaking gasoline on the headers.
After running it that way a few years, i finally changed over to a 4bbl intake manifold, open plenum, with a single 38mm DCNF 2bbl carb, using a 4bbl to 2bbl adapter i made.
That almost doubled the power, and it never leaked a drop after that.
I used a taxi engine with the forged steel crank that mates up with the 727 trans. Forged pistons, bushed rods, ARP studs throughout, big cam
Perfect machine work.
High-stall torque converter, wide-ratio spur-cut planetaries, it really hauled ass.
I really miss that car.
My uncle is a Slant 6 guy. You can make good power and torque with the right combo of goodies.
Fabulous professional quality video that has won the admiration and respect of Uncle Tony and mechanics from around the world. The hot six is a symphony of power.
Thanks so much mate, glad to have you here. 👍
Awesome slant. I have a VF Pacer that sadly the body is 2 far gone, but I had a local engine builder put my Slant together many years back and added triple 45 Webers to it. It has in the vicinity of 240 hp. Not as potent as this one but still a nice performing engine.
We loved these engines in the States ,good work
My dad had at least 1 of these and loved them. He was a mechanic in the model T days up to the 70's. Taught me I could fix most things myself and saved me a fortune in labor over the years.
Excellent use of the Webers to get the most out of the little Mopar slant six. I ran 42 DCOE Webers on cross-ram intakes mounted on a small block Chevy some 20+ years ago and the results were super. It took a lot of experimentation to get the correct manifold length and proper volume in the velocity tubes to get the best hp/torque out of your engine. Again, good job on the slant 6!
Sounds interesting on the Chevy small block. Cross Ram worked the best? I’m trying to figure out hot to cheaply add power and efficiency to my 305, and no, not really interested in a 350, lol
I am currently working on that right now on a 302 in my mustang. I have lots of Webbers kicking about from my many years of building Datsuns. How I wound up with a 67 Mustang convertible is is a whole other story.
@@donziperk Webers would be beautiful on a 302......I've thought about putting some on my 302 Bronco for a long time. If you are considering the same you could more easily find a down draft manifold than a side draft. I just got lucky back in the day to find the cross-ram set-up. You could also put Del Ortos on such a manifold as they are basically an improved and less expensive Weber. You could use the Webers or Del Ortos and change the chokes(venturis) to get the size for air flow correct and then mess with the jet stack until you get them where you want the carb to perform. The beauty of either carb is that you can pull the jet stack(mains, idle, emulsion tubes, etc all in one easy turn of the wrench. There are several companies that sell the entire set-up for a king's ransom and they come pretty close to right on the button for mixture control. Good luck and Keep the Faith, Tom P.S. They still make the Shelby Weber intake and IDAs or IDFs...I forget which carb works better. Summit Racing sells the entire set up for about $2500 and you would barely have to get your hands dirty. It is fuel injection that looks like Webers.......Part #: 1-148-011 for 260, 289, 302 for Fords. Just hook up to your computer and go for a drive to tune 'em up.
@@tomnekuda3818 I’ve tuned Dellortos Webers and Mikuni Solex most of my life life and I love them. Yes IDAs would be nice but I’m trying to keep the height profile low. I might even consider a Jim Inglese 8 stack system. But for now I’m going to try to use what I have. As far as jetting and choke selection I have a fairly large collection so It just a matter of getting the manifold and designing a good linkage system. The driveability will be great and the sound will be music to the ears. That slant six sure sounded nice. Always liked those engines.
@@donziperk Inglese stuff is great but it takes $ to buy......sounds like you are pretty well set up. Good luck and keep the faith. Tom
Such a great motor , i still service daily driver valiants with thier original un opened motor.
No reason to open a slant six. Nothing goes wrong inside.
Nice, uncle Tony sent me
The Leaning Tower of Power!
fun little motor, a friend swore by them, his ap5 went good.
77hp/litre, on an under square classic 2 valve 6 pot, is a real achievement. Beautiful engine. Have you guys done a Ford Zephyr 2.5L? Perhaps there's something in you back catalogue of engine films?
The leaning tower of power!
The slant 225 is the best 6 cylinder that Chrysler ever made, I'm a 265 fan but there is no doubt that the slant 225 is as close as bullet proof there was back in the day!!!!
I have a 1965 225 Barracuda, what would be an amazing build. Looks great, runs better, and want a nice way to spend añ afternoon!
Thanks for the ideas.
The slant 6 has always been a great bulletproof mill. That little 225ci. 6 will walk some V8’s off the line, on a roll or depending upon the gears, top end. Best of luck🍀👍🏼with the car.
This episode sure reminded me of my youth. At age 16 in 1970 I worked at a filling station. I was driving a 67 Dodge Dart 170 Slant Six. Of course being 16, working at a gas station I couldn’t leave the Dart alone. Also being 16 without much patience I ended up putting the cart before the horse. Without doing any head work I found an Offy 4 bbl manifold. Matched it to a Holley 550 and had some custom bent Vipar headers. It wasn’t long before I had to disconnect the secondaries to keep it running. With my interest changing to a 69 Mustang 428 CJ the Dart was sold to another impatient, enthusiastic car loving teenager. I hope he had the money to finish it properly. I loved this episode. Thank you!
We need to see it powering the Valiant!
nice vid man
I wish I could go back in time and put this engine in my father's old Dart. Gee son, seems to have a lot more power. Must be the high test I put in the tank. lol
Dyno numbers are impressive but the intake moan is over the top cool. Closed captioning even describes it as "music". Beautiful machine.
