So-is the 273 in a 69 or earlier car with the cast iron water pump? If so, all above suggestions are for the 70 up aluminum setups, everything is different. Vintage Air has a kit for the 69 and down, part number 161004.

I wondered why I hadn't got one in a while.

The 440-3.23 B bodiies were top enders in my neck of the woods. These were about the only cars that we would outrun the State Patrol in. In 1970 the county I lived in-the County Sheriff and 3 or 4 Deputies drove 70 Charger R/T's and Coronet R/T's, all with 440 and 3.23 gears. I once heard...

That's why I didn't have kids.

When it's completely paid for.

You said freway driving, that means 2.76. My 67 Dart 273 2bbl 2.71 gears, 225-70-15 rear tires. Get 20-21 mpg. A big help would be the A&A Transmission part throttle kickdown kit, it helps drivability a bunch. .

Run it down the highway about 130 for 5 or 6 miles. :rofl:

Put 2.76 gears in it. :rofl:

These look big and clunky on the hood scoops compared to the correct ones.

Stupid leftist city slickers would try to pet them!

I see you have a swivel on your hook-makes life a lot easier-doesn't it?

If anyone needs a nice back glass for an early Barracuda, there is one in the Lincoln NE U Pull It. I didn't know if they reproduce them or not. You would have to be fairly close I assume.

AMK has the correct u bolts, two different lengths. I have seen a couple axle tubes pinched by the round u bolts. I like to use the gripper kind.

Like purple micro-dot?
