I had a good day, I also scored from same car ( 75 Dart ) what I believe will be everything I will need to convert to electronic ignition.

I believe I took everything that was there, was surprised at what little there was once I opened up the harness.

Are the Mopar brains still avail? This is a knock-off and I am assuming I should find a better quality part?

Ill have more questions prob. on this but again this will be a project for down the road.

I also scored the heat riser deal, I was wondering what the little bracket was that is attached onto my manifolds, now I know it is too attach this collector. Image

As you can see I also learned that the 75 Dart ( at least ) used a vacuum fitting for the lines that was not made from pot metal, came off easily and will replace that Ford unit I found.

I am assuming that the breather will work on my valve cover? Do these need to be cleaned and if so how.....I also want to find an earlier ribbed valve cover, I dont like the one on there, plainjane.

Will the earlier covers bolt onto my later engine no problem?

I also found this carb at a different yard this A.M. Removed from a 78 Volare or Aspen, not sure.

Crusty but I figured at the time it might have been my only option, finding these cars and their parts are tough around here.

I am assuming at this point I am better off with the previous carb pictured?

I found this diagram on-line, assuming this is the correct 1975 carb than it would appear this is the vacuum diagram I would need.

I will post this here cause I am sure it might interest someone else and I am sure I will have more questions and it will all be in one place

You did good!

And yes MOPAR ECU's are still available anywhere...that isn't a problem. You should always carry a spare ECU and a spare voltage regulator.

Those air cleaners aren't cheap anymore either....good one!

Good diagram!

Congrats!

did that engine have a distributor in it? If so you might go back and check and see what number it had on the tag....if 3874876, you might be able to use it for a recurve or sell it here for some project $.

:wink:
