Sorry gang, it's been WAY too long since I've poked around this forum and had any amount of energy put into my 'ol gal Barracuda. I've been starting to get her back on the road and I'm trying to keep her cool. Forgive me because I've been out of the Mopar game for a while now (busy w/ house...

It's a transverse mounted motor, you'd be looking at basically %100 custom everything to get it mounted up, plus it's a terrifying complex and unreliable motor set up. I would say there are about a 1000 better and just as odd ball swaps one could do that would be more successful then the mitsu...

check out "Mel and Sons" in Concord, most people I know that have had systems installed by them recommend them, call them for a quote.

Opps, yeah the car has the big bolt pattern, so I've got some options. cragars and slots do look good but I think I want something a bit different.

So the 14" magnum 500's on my barracuda are kinda chewed up and rusty and the tires are dry rotted, so I'm looking for some wheels. I'm looking to do something a little different and I was looking at a set of the gray centered 15" AR Salt flat specials, or even a set of 15"-16" panasport rims...

bumper cars...

Bump!!!! Now running on all 6, new carpet installed, and with 2008 tags!

Well, it does have '06 tags on it at the moment and technically your not aloud to have any "extra" vehicles. Hell, your not even aloud to back into parking spaces because "the exhaust harms the landscaping" which consists of large bushes and a crappy lawn. You'd think that surround a parking lot...

Ok, so the HOA at my condo complex has started giving me warnings... She's gotta go now... Shoot me an offer...

still open to offers and trades...

Bumper cars

Update... All 6 are firing and it's running much better... running damn well actually! I pulled the valve cover to find a very nice, clean, and from the looks of it rebuilt top end. Adjusted the valves and there we have it, all better. So, Once I get it all sorted out and tie up the loose ends...

I've got a good 31k mile '74 225 w/ matching 31k mile 904 lined up for $100, but I dont have a place to swap it into the car, nor do I have a hoist or truck to go get the motor. If anyone wants to offer me something for it as is they can save a good deal of $ and swap in that cheap slant.

Well, good news and bad news... I got the car running a good deal better, new points, set the timing, etc... Bad news is that it's still not %100 and a compression test shows that 2 of the cylinders are very low on compression. Now I know the car has a great rebuilt short block, but the...

Yup, 225/904, no sway bar, and manual drums all the way around. Starts right up since I swapped out the beat up old carter with a rebuilt holly 1920, but once it warms up it idles rough, I've got new point for It which I intend to put in. The past owner said he but in a rebuild short block about...
