My car is fun but needs a better axle and gears. For some reason Chrysler decided to put 7 1/4 axles in V8 cars. The easiest drop in is an 8 1/4.

Looks sexy with those rims dude
My 1974 Dart sport had the 318 with the factory carter bbd 2425 2bbl carb and this one had the 8 3/4 rear. I miss how that thing moved but i had issues cranking at key. I would have to put key in the on position then use a screw driver and jump it at the starter relay lol. Close the choke manually every other i started it as the electric crap stopped working who knows when.
I had plans to put on a Holley Double pumper 650cfm to replace the carter but the electrical issues galore had me getting rid of it. LOL was a bad time i had much going on and was not in the mood for this car. I do miss it kinda. I traded the 67 for a 51 desoto with a flathead 6 with plans of a rebuild on the motor but lost interest in that about the time the dart sport was running. Dude who got that ended up doing a 350 swap, which was a shame.
