Thanks, but they seem to have more for the early SS cars, vs 68. As I have e-mailed them the other day with still NO response.

How about a whole car??  On the throttle springs, the green repo springs are to heavy and stiff...makes it hard to drive the car. I went to Home Depot and got some lighter ones and painted them. Fuel Filters, I got them from Year One when they had a 30% off sale.

..oops, Battery. They just suck...nobody has deals on them and they are well over $400 plus shipping. I don't remember who I got it from. I did this Dart about four years ago and I must say it is a blast to drive.

I bought my last SS battery from Antique Auto Battery at Carlisle a couple years ago, don't remember the cost though.  I thought someone was making them with the mini cell inside. Kramer is probably gearing up for the Indy Cylinder Head swap meet coming up this weekend.

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

Yes I KNOW, nothing reasonable, for Super Stock, much less cheap. I thought I saw them for 42 on fee bay, but now they are no longer there.

See these crimp clamps on the filters, I was told this was correct ? vs your squeeze type. and the $200.00 breathers.

That is correct....I have changed the clamps sense that photo was taken....good eye!!
As for the breathers.....just did not want to spend the money when I had these breathers just sitting on my shelf. If i got the correct breathers then the price would go up to the cost of 1207 fuel filters rather than 1204.
