You really should install a spacer between the fan and pulley. I've seen metal fatigue/cracks as a result of not using one. It would help get your fan a bit closer to the radiator too which will also help with your cooling.

Layson's has some of those parts.

Yeah, looks like a mismatch. Ash tray looks like a lever type, and the housing looks like a slider type.

Hood and trunk latches look a lot alike, but, they are different. Each are the same as some other models too.

Yup, up to 1974 when they changed to the casting with the A.I.R. provision. The open chamber heads starting in 1968 will reduce the compression ratio a bit though. '66 and '67 920 castings were closed chamber.

Just as well. You're better off with a double roller chain anyway.

Chances are a stock choke would not be a straight bolt-on anyway. I'd just get carb with an electric choke would be my recommendation.

If you're using the '64-6 LH exhaust manifold, using a later "smog" head would require extra clearance at the left rear (#7) exhaust port to keep from breaking the manifold. Best done by a thicker exhaust manifold gasket rather than grinding on the head. Best just to get the correct head.

Regardless if they're original or not, replace those steel plugs with brass ones so you never have to worry about them rusting out.

If after tightening those three screws it's still loose, remove that steel plate and squeeze it a tiny bit in a vice to tighten up that socket.

The link doesn't work. I don't see why they wouldn't fit though.

A '66 A-body uses a different handle.

Interesting. They don't list that number in the factory service manual, but, all my Formula S Barracudas have come with that radiator.....either with or without a factory shroud. I just happened to see the 75 code under your radiator heading on the broadcast sheet.

If you're going to use an A230 floor shift 3 speed, you'll probably want to use the '68-73 small block aluminum bell housing. That's probably the best setup for your '67. You could also use the A745 transmission and the '67-8 cast iron 3 speed bell housing too. Not quite as heavy duty as the...

Is the upper radiator tank stamped 2582975 and no shroud?
