    Advice on potential gear swap

    Yes, take-off definitely gonna be soft but not hot rodding/racing at all. Really just going to local car shows but some are a little farther away and require longer/freeway drives. Few more engine/tranny specs I should have included earlier are listed below. 360 mag - 30 over 370hp @ 5300rpm...

    Advice on potential gear swap

    Yes Oldmanmopar, current stall of TC is my biggest concern here. So in your opinion, what's 'too high' of a ratio? I do have a aux tranny cooler and a trans temp gauge to keep an eye on it, but don't wanna be creating more problems than it's worth. Also have seen a 3.08 (harder to find) and...

    Advice on potential gear swap

    Definitely think 2.94 is gonna work best for my application now. Again, just want to make sure this swap is going to be as simple as just changing out ring/pinion, new gasket/fluid, etc without having to modify anything else (new TC with different stall, modifying shift linkage, etc).

    Show Us Pictures of 2nd Generation Barracudas

    My 67 notch...the coffee shop in the background was named 'Barracuda Coffee Co.' as the prior owner of the shop had two cars, a 2nd gen and an E-body. Unfortunately, he's sold them both.

    Lens/bezel removal

    Guys, Have a 67 notch and the clear lens/black 4-way divider (see green lines on pic) for my gauges has fallen down and is actually resting on my needles. The clear lens itself is loose in the hole so I'm assuming some sort of tab/screw has broken off the back of the bezel. Also assuming a...

    Automatic Transmission Cooler Lines

    Wish I would have read this thread a couple weeks ago! Just finished installing a new B&M cooler and -6AN lines/fittings but used the nitrile braided stainless from Jegs, not the PTFE stainless hose. Tried to find some pressure and/or temp ratings on Jegs' website for the stuff I bought but...

    360 Build Advice

    Thanks Dave and txstang84. Yes, car is summer/weekend driver only that will never see the track. I too was worried about my comp ratio with this combo so I've recently decided to make a head change to the RHS X heads (don't trust the casting on these alum heads anyway). FWIW, my elevation is...

    Got it. As far as advancing it, what do you recommend? Haven't seen too many 106 LSA's advanced....most have been straight up.

    Will not be a daily driver. Summer/weekends only and will never see the track. Gonna make a head change to the RHS X heads soon so comp ratio should drop to something a little more user friendly.
