Re: Original hemi dart information
As for my own, making some progress. Tim Banning is getting started on the new Hemi, and I am still figuring out exactly what else I want to do. I did swap out the Super Tricks and dry-rotted Firestones for some new Cragars and Mickey Thompsons:

liteweight I'm liking your playroom Clint. That leaky old LO23 is going to be leaving oil trails all over that nice floor...lol Had Cragars on mine for a few years. Put spinners on them. This is a pic from 2006? I'm thinking when I still had the pump gas friendly Elfhunt in it.

Thank you! Don't worry, the floor is used to leaks. At least they are easy to wipe up. Practically everything I own leaks one fluid or another. Except the modern ones. Your car looks fantastic, btw. |

Re: Original hemi dart information
Quick question for you guys that actually run your cars- do you have a front engine plate, or just motor mounts alone? Tim Banning suggested I install one.
Also, does anybody really have any idea how many of the original 80 LO23s are remaining? |

Re: Original hemi dart information
If your going to run an external oil pump getting the lines to fit on a uncut mount or K member is almost impossible . Add in #1 header tube and steering box.
Look at the pic of the mount previous of my motor. I have an uncut K member and dual milodon pump. The mount is custom fabbed from tubing that replaces the OEM mount. I can provide better pics if you need. Whats on it now? liteweight |
