I've been running the middle sized Comp Thumpr in a 273. With 1.75 headers 3in collectors with street tunnel ram and pair of 450 cfm Holly's. My car is around 2600lbs with a 4speed with 4.56 gears and currently 29in tall tires.
That Comp Thumpr has been a good cam for my only 9:1 tween. Car...
Overdrive is down the road but will receive passion performance gear kit that evens up the spread and strengthens up the trans. Not too expensive of a kit
I will never run a smaller than 28" on a early A they look frumpy and it's not for me. My wheel wheels are getting stretched or radiused for...
I have couple 360s but they are external balance which would mean me flywheel clutch bellhousing zbar clutch fork and my custom headers would then need redone as they tuck tight to the floor and bellhousing. So to go to the larger bellhousing for the external balanced flywheel for a 360 would be...
The my are holley list 9776 450cfm mechanical secondaries with no coke horns. I jetted them down 6 sizes from stock and changed the pump cams from the pink to the green. Fires up quickly but gotta feather the gas till its warm. Throttle is crisp and I have not hesitation which is little...
Yes Sir, pulled it out of a 84 Ram 318 truck. Was gonna buy motor and trans for $200. Guy messaged me couple days before I went to pull em and said he would like to keep the motor but if I came out and helped could have the OD 4speed and all associated parts for free. Hell if a deal.
I'm gonna get on the phone with lunati next week and see what they recommend. They have another cam I really liked but it says 10.5 minimum compression. Most I can get out of my setup is gonna be 10.2-10.4.
It's a Voodoo series hydraulic flat tappet cam but i would run with solid lifters. Its...
Currently not really looking to pay for custom grind but looking at one of luntai Voodoo Solid grinds.

Picked up at 73 dart for $450 with 318. Just pulled apart engine. I lucked out with a .30 over motor with KB 167s that sit +.01 above deck. Crank is -.01 under and looks to be fully machined and balanced. Heads turned out to be 596s with 2.02/1.6 valves already installed and have been decked...
Thank you, I was familiar with the use of the upper control arm and larger upper ball joint. Just not sure if the 73+ ball joint would work with the stock lower barracuda control arm.
That makes me happy so now I can do my disc conversion with what I have for actually less money than buying a...
I have a 65 barracuda that's a 10 inch drum brake car. My lower ball joints are shot. I have a 73+ disk brake swap in the garage and running 5x4.5 wheels with adapters on car already.
Now my questions are: Can I use the lower ball joints from the 73+ disc swap with my 65 barracuda lower...
That's exactly what I was thinking of using if I decided to follow through.
Currently my only concern is cutting up such a nice grill for one but also how it looks once it's set back more. The top of the grill being strait across where the hood dips back on each side of the center may be tricky...
What do you guys think? I had this idea and finally got a grill and with little trimming would fit nice. I'd have to modify the body line on the leading edge of the hood but I have a spare hood and would proabbly use a bumper that's flat across the top.
I cant believe how well it fit up.
My...
I believe 8-1/4 started in 72-73up until 1976 for abodies not in 1970, that's why I asked. So probably not original to the car it came out of.
What size brakes are on rear end?
Also I don't know if this is exactly relevant, but grand cherokees up to 1998 had a Dana 35 rear with disk brakes the disk brakes swap is common/simple swap for regular Cherokee's with 8.25 and abodies as well. Regular Cherokee's are drum only. Jeep liberty's also came with 8.25 rears but they...
Jeep 8.25 will work if they are 1995 and older and most jeep rears are 3.07 ratio if out of a 6 cylinder (4.0) manual transmission or 3.55 ratio 6 cylinder with auto transmission. The 4cylinder jeeps had 4.10 with manual transmission and autos have 4.56 (very rare)
And some came with 3.73 with a...

Super stock leaf springs and sliders. Not sure on shocks yet. Then the tallest widest tire I can squeeze in. Axle is a built a body 8.25 with 29 spline axles and newer style limited slip with 4:56 gears. I'm sure it will make a big difference. A 245/60/14 was largest I could fit before and I had...
Summit racing has the 15" steel wheels in small bolt pattern. I found a few other small bolt pattern elsewhere that where super affordable. I'll see if I can find them. JD wheels has some five spoke similar to the torque thrusts for just over a $100 but can't remember if they had small bolt pattern
Are you small bolt pattern or large? If you want to go to 15s check these out

I just disagreed with the idea. Looks goofy imho.
I've seen a lot of truck guys run small diameter tires on 15s and don't look right.
I love the look of Nice big side wall on a 15" rim personally but a larger diameter steel wheel with shorter sidewall can look good too ...
I'd be interested to...
