Slant Six DODGE--BRING IT!

i kinda figured the carb would be to big for it,& i have seen 390cmf was the 'pick' on almost all 6's running 4 barrels,i was kinda hoping that i could get kit 'down size' it,hell i even thought about rebuilding a couple 94's for it,
as far as the carb he has on it.he had a carter on it but the car is set up to go straight line racing.
& thanks for the tip on the starter, hopefully i haven't jinxed me getting the motor by talking about it...LOL

 

lets see some 4 bbl applications with linkage arrangements , throttle & kickdown samples.

 

alrighty,finally got my motor & tranny straitened out,i'm gonna use a leaning tower of power{duh why else would i be posting here} a1970 225 with a 4 barrel this is for my build,,,

Here's our shop truck. Mild Cam, 4bbl, headers...sound like an angry wasp with the open exhaust...love it!

 

still waiting to see your throttle and kickdown arrangements,getting ready to install manifold & carb on mine.

 

the 2nd photo from above shows the cable that the kid i'm getting my motor from is running,kick down is here kinda crude but it works,i'll being redesigning it.

 

Pretty sure that Lynx manifold is an Aussie (or Even Kiwi) one, I know they were around down here for the local engines but can't remember where they were made.

 

here's mine now...

 

yum!how ya like the header?i was thing of getting one but i don't know where to look or benefits of running one,my car is gonna be a street cruiser not a bruiser LOL. hows the torque? plus i need mine to dump close to the tranny so it can cross over to the right side...
P.S where do i find a chrome or finned valve cover?

 

nice but its specific for my application. Not sure about fitment to your car. Actually the Clifford shorty headers may be better for your set up. JUst have to keep looking on EBay & Craigslist. Found my valve cover and intake there.

 

Here is the Lokar set up I used in a 72 Scamp...









I later used the same set up on a 500 Eddy carb with no issues.


Here is the motor that I am dropping into my 69 D100 daily driver (the newest vehicle we own) this week along with a overdrive 4 speed and a bagged 4 link. The motor is 60 over, re-cond rods, 20/30 crank, new pistons, ported head, matched offy intake, matched clifford shorty headers, 268 cam, eddy 500 cfm that has been dropped down to 400cfm with guts from an old Buick 400cfm carter.







Here is the motor that is in the 48 Chevy Aerosedan...





My wifes daily driver 66 Dart has a late model hydraulic cammed 225 in it.

The only thing we own that doesn't have a slant six in it is the 56 Olds Holiday 88 4 door HT. That one has the 240 hp 324 Rocket.

 

Here's a clickable link for the Flyin' Brick.

 

The Flyin' Brick is BUENO!

 

BTTT for the leaning tower o' power....

 

The amazing Lindross roadster is one of my fave slants of all time. I also remember the ass kicking from his little Valiant at the H.A.M.B. drags when he buried my ol 56 Plymouth Suburan, fond memory however! ~sololobo~

 

Way in love with this!

 

Does this have a strut front end(?) or....

 

hey all this is the little hambster that barry and myself built , a few years ago and after run 14.07 with the old motor we build a tough one with a nasty cam , and twin holleys and now it runs a conftable 13.3 @98 mph

the black sheep

 

Yes, chassis ladder bar rear. Things are about to get crazy!!!!

No pictures but a story. When I was young and in the USAF I bought my parents 62 Dodge Lancer GT, (cause the neigbors wife sold his 53 Corvette I was going to buy when I got back from overseas). Turned out the Lancer had an aluminum block 225 in it. Long story short I decided to build a copy of the hyperpack. I was still in the AF and working part time at an automotive parts house so got my parts cheap. Schnieder cam and valve train, Jahns 11:1 pistons, Offenhauser 4 Bl, somebodys headers, 2.5 inch exhaust with only a formula S resonator at the end, Mallory rev pol ignition and a Holley of some sort. The thing would scream. Didn't know much so never thought about beefing up the TF tranny or the rear end. Finally broke both. Replaced them and traded the thing off for a 36 Ford PU with a 301 chevy. Those were the days.

 

Wish I had pics! Back in the early 90's I ran a mid 60's Valiant post with a hot rod slant as a drag car. Skinny slicks, welded spiders, and a stock trans (I was poor )I still got 3 years of consistent 13's at a track in Lewistown MT.

 

WILL:
That thing is BAD ASS!!!!!

 

BTTT
Slant Pix please!

 

Here is my little tractor engine...as my buddy calls it. 32/36 re-jetted weber, 2 barrel manifold, Petronix ignition.

 

What jets did you go with on the weber? My wife wants to put one on her 66 Dart.

 

The Mopar slant sixes I see are no slouch for performance. There is one in '41 Plymouth coupe in my area with a A-727 and it really opens eyes.

....I actually drilled mine out...not very scientific...so I don't know what jet size they are. If I was going to do it again. I'd probably spring for the 38/38 Weber. It should be just right for a stock /6.
I also had to use a lokar cable setup. I tried doing the mechanical linkage but due to the way the car was setup I ended up with the Lokar setup.

 

I have a 225 in my 65 Dodge D100 Utiline pickup and love it. Been messing with the engines for many years. I have the following pieces for a Slant 6:

- Aussie Speed "Hurricane" 4 barrel manifold (new)
- Hooker Super Comp Headers (new)
- Holley 390 CFM 4 barrel (great core)


- EM

 

subscribed!! will post pics this weekend There are some Awesome Slants on here!!

 

Not particularly 'special or all that
'odd''. The "-3" suffix merely indicates
that it;s 225 cubic inch heavy-duty
truck, industrial or marine block,
rather than a passenger car or
light (-ie- 1/2 or 3.4 ton truck engine.
