Lift and properly support front of car. Remove the nuts from lower half of the mounts (one per mount). Raise engine enough for the mounts to clear the frame brackets and support engine safely. Unbolt motor mount brackets from engine block. Remove mounts with engine bracket. Unbolt motor mounts from engine brackets on the bench. Reverse procedure for installation.
i have a 1970 dodge dart with a slant 6, 225 and need to know if a 318 out of 1970 dodge dart will mount up with the motor mounts and tranny.
yes but you will have to use motor plates to install it in place of motor mounts.
you would have to change the K-frame or use motor plates to install the engine.
Yes these cars came from the factory with an optional 340 V8 so the 318 will definately fit. Of course there will be modifications needed to motor mounts, radiator, and transmission
Yes, a 318 will fit a 6 slant engine in a 1970 Dodge Dart. You will need to also have all a bigger radiator, new engine mounts, fuel line, and clutch to name a few.
The easiest way to approach putting a 318 into a slant 6 1970 dodge dart would be to purchase a conversion mounts. This will give you all that you need to make an easy transition. Note, you do not need to alter the K, simply acquire the mounts and it should fit nicely.
It was either the 225 slant 6 or the 273 V8.
If your replacing a slant 6 with another slant 6 it will bolt right in.
get a chiltons repair manual from the library for your year dodge.
Yes, a 318 will fit a 6 slant engine in a 1970 Dodge Dart. You will need to also have all a bigger radiator, new engine mounts, fuel line, and clutch to name a few to complete the project.
To make a 318 into a slant 6 engine on a 1970 Dodge Dart you will need new engine mounts, fuel lines, and bigger radiator. What needs to be done first is to remove the old 318 and add the new engine mounts first. This is not something that should be done if you don't have the proper tools and equipment.
I don't think so, I think the K-frame has to be changed to go to a V8, you could always use motor plates to install it.
