Gorgeous color on a Dart. Even beter when the big block is underhood.

Might I suggest you put this thread in the Member's projects section, so you can update it as you progress and we can follow along?: https://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/postlist.php?Cat=0&Board=Projects

Have one pretty much like it for the last 30 years, console 4-speed! May actually finish it one year... One question, why the orange water pump pulley and silver crank pulley?

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

Rhino, The crank pulley was blasted and had not been painted and there was not a water pump pulley,I was tired of waiting for parts and decided to just put it in the car and change out parts later.One question I have is #5 plug wire is right on the power steering box,did I miss something?Everything is in line and appears to fit nicely except that spark is real close.Also could the Mods move this to Members as suggested eariler? I will post more pics later.
Thanks, Ray

I have found that the reproduction wire sets that are sold have the wrong length wires for the driver's side. The only one's I have found that are right are from these guys:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayIS...RTQ:MOTORS:1123

I had trouble with the #5 and #7 routing with the typical repro sets, this set has the correct length, especially for the #7 wire!

You need a set for a C Barge with a 383 HP engine . I used a repop set I think I got from Jacks for my Bee , the only one that was too short was #7 which makes sense , it needed to be about 5 inches longer than the non c body set , the other wires seemed to be fine .

Another note , not to be nit picky, but the OP has a 68 right side valvecover .
