I know nothing of engine rebuilding and am going to need plenty of help. I would appreciate any directions to go. Restoration Manuals Engine Rebuild Manuals Anything will help. My Dart has the 225 cu. Actually picked this car up in a swap meet for 1500.00 I just couldn't pass it up.

Welcome on the board. Sharp-lookin' car! If you'll post a clear, sharp picture of the fender tag (a 2" × 3" metal tag on the driver's side inner fender, containing lots of letters and numbers) or an accurate transcript of its contents, we can tell you a good bit about when, where, and how your car was built. You'll want to go get the three books described in this thread. |

Will take a picture tomorrow... I did buy the Body service manual when i was at the swap meet. I just need to learn to do the engine rebuilding and tearing the car down to have the body work finished before i go to the inside and do the carpet and upholstry. Would love to find a book on the 225 cu. engine. |

The body manual is (less than) half the service manual, which in '75 is a two-volume edition. Most all the info you need on the 225 is in the chassis manual. |
