Thank you for that. So if I'm going from a 7-1/4 to an 8-3/4 I will have to shorten the shaft? 66 Barracuda with an 8-3/4 from a 68 Barracuda.

I have a 66 Barracuda with a 273. No AC, little four blade fan. Today while tinkering and hitting a standstill with the carb I pulled the fan and spacer as put on a five blade with an Eaton thermostatic clutch. Fit the pulley fine, bolts to the water pump fine. Was almost happy.... Till I...

Depends. If they had TBI then no. The TBI engine had an in the tank fuel pump and a pressure regulator and return on the TBI unit. There is a block off plate on the timing chain cover. My TBI roller 318 had a block plate but it also had the eccentric on the cam. Came out of an 88-89 Ramcharger.

If I put it on the Barracuda it will be a weekend cruiser. Mated to a 904 or A500 to an 8.25 w/ 3.23s or lower (2.9s). I live in Elko, NV and we have the Silver state race which is a a highway high speed bracket race. I am also not to far from the Bonneville. I want to make the car fast. Stiffer...

So far here is what I am starting out with. I have a bare 360 block that is .060 over. The machine work has been done and it is fresh, its sitting on the stand ready to go. A wrist pin let go and scored a cylinder so it was resleeved and bored out. Casting numbers on the block are...

Need an accelerator cable for a 1966 Plymouth Barracuda. With an auto, 318, 4bbl (Carter on an Edelbrock manifold) The one from a Duster is too long and I cant get it to work without binding. Need a shorter one. In Elko, NV

Nope. No good at all. Stuck at work.... yuck......

Any chance I could get some detailed pics and measurements of one of the ones you have? Could be a good project for my local fabricator.... `

Howdy. I am in Carson City!

Im looking to find a shroud to go on my current radiator (stock with a 273) or is there an upgraded better cooling aftermarket radiator shroud combo. I am putting a 360 in the car that is bored .060 over. I am worried about it running a little to hot. I am not against running electric fans...

Im not too worried about the rear gears that much. When I decided that I will put in a 360 the idea of fuel economy in my Barracuda went out the window. Now only if I could find a nice little valiant 2 door and drop in a slant six or a 3.9L FI V6 and an 833 OD....... :)

Mild performance gains. No dragging racing or street racing planned. Rather have a heavier/stock-ish TQ for the mileage benefits and driveability. The car has sat in my garage for the past 5 years and has had nothing done to it. Time to get it out and work on it. All I really want is a nice...

I tend to do that. + To easy with what you suggested! Thank you.

I have the stock 904 converter. I would rather get a new converter. Sooo..... All I need to do then is get a new converter for a 360/727 combo and it will go in my 904 just fine?
