An 8.25 rear axle assembly from a 73 - 76 A body will "bolt in" to your 68 Dart. These came in many (but not all) V8 cars. Assuming your Dart has a 7.25 now, your driveshaft will need to be shortened to fit, or get the shaft from the donor car, which MIGHT fit. When I put an 8.25 in my 63 Valiant, I had to use the original parking brake cable housings. I can't remember why the ones from the new rearend would not fit. You may not encounter that problem with your Dart. I'm using a Mopar Performance double roller timing chain, but I don't think they are available anymore. See the Hot Rod Slant Sickness article for an alternative. You can still get a high volume oil pump from Mopar. I'm using one in my Valiant, but I don't think they are really necessary - the stock one is good for a daily driver or even a mild performance motor. A stock fuel pump should work fine for a driver. My Valiant has a 4bbl carb and the stock fuel pump - I have no fuel delivery problems at all. Hope this helps, Pete Vanderlaan Va Beach, VA pmvdlaan@picusnet.com |
