Of course it runs, it's a slant six. Keep the slant six! Don't fix what's not broken.

A Slant 6 with headers and a 4 barrel carb? Yes!

[timothyleake]

Keep the 6 cylinder engine! Brings back memories of my High School Days! You and your Dad are putting out some awesome videos!!!!

[DavidJones-hlom]

Whoever owned that Duster before loved it with the 6 banger.
I would just improve it and leave the same engine in it. The guy was definitely into High Performance😊😊😊

Keep that ole slant six, that thing sounds absolutely Really looking forward to hearing that thing screaming down the road wide open, especially if it has a cam like you think it does!

Please keep the Leaning Tower of Power!! It sounds awesome!

My first car in 1972 without all the goodies. $2295 financed for 3 years paid for working building pump jack panels. Thanks for the memories.

Those slant sixes are good engines. I'd keep it as is.

[timsharkey]

That bit at the end with the army truck was cool. I bet your neighbors are never surprised by anything they see you drive past their houses anymore. 🤣

[jessicagreene]

Keep it as is. It's a snapshot in time. Slant 6's run forever and the vintage speed parts make it even cooler.

[jonathanmiddleton]

Build her with that ole 225!! It deserves to live on!!

[shumakerguitarworkssgw]

This car, cleaned up with some aluminum slots, big in the back and little up front is basically my dream mopar

[ronsheehan]

Oh man! You have to give that slant 6 a chance to shine.

[brandaneakright]

Really cool lil duster, I’d leave the slant 6 in it and fix it up. Everybody does the v8 swaps anymore honestly, it’s cool seeing a hopped up slant 6 still in it. Glad you guys saved it, honestly it doesn’t look too bad definitely worth fixing up.

In 1974 when I was 16 years old I delivered a brand new 6 cylinder Duster from Denver to a dealership in Montrose, Colorado. I was in heaven driving a brand new car at 16 years old! Not sure how my dad arranged for me to do so but I certainly wasn’t about to object! The drive there was a lot more fun than the Greyhound bus ride back to Denver.
I sure enjoy your videos! My in-laws had a GMC motorhome back in the 80’s. It brings back some great family memories.

Love the old Slant Sixes! Had a bunch of them. You definitely need to adjust the valves, Michael. When they are set right, you can't barely hear them! I also love my old Super Six 225 with the Carter BBD 2 barrel set up from a 318. They ran really strong also.

[ruck-n-adventures]

First truck had the 225 leaning tower of power. When that one died we put a Super Slant 6 called the 275 we pulled it out of a 1970’s Duster. All I’m saying is let it ride my man.

[locotrucker]

Wow! The leaning tower of power. With all those add on goodies too. I love it. Can't wait to see you guys bring this one back to life.

[butcher]

What a great find

Please keep 🙏 the slant 6
Especially that one
4bbl, Header, cam

Normally I would say it has to have a V8. But this 225 is an exception. That thing sounds fantastic and I bet you it has some nice power as well. Do it up man!
