1967 Barracuda Formula S 383 daily driver build

I ended up putting the MSD controller box behind the drivers kick panel, made a little panel for the lights below the dash, mounted a toggle off to the left side below the dash to enable the “auto” feature, made a bracket out of aluminum strap to hold the speedo cable at the crossmember & had a new speedometer cable made to go right to the speed sensor without any slop.

It all worked out well & is nice cruising along with the other traffic & not feeling like I am going to be rear ended @ 55mph on the highway.

One thing that is surprising is the firmness it shifts, if it were a warm summer day, shifting from 1st to 1st over, I think it would probably give a little chirp of the tires when hard on the throttle. It’s not just a wimpy feeling OD engagement like an old 80’s 700r4.

Nice job, great pics !! Would be useful to those wondering about the same switch. I went the othe way and put 30" tires/3;73 gears in my fish.
RPM is about the same at 3000 on the hiway.
