Yes.

You don't have to disassemble the steering column, but you should remove it from the car. Just remove the two bolt holding the column to the dash, and the 4 (3?) bolts holding the firewall bracket that supports the lower end of the column. Disconnect the turn signal harness, then remove the...

Well, here's what happens when you don't grease your bearings. Had to replace the axle.

My 67 Barracuda, owned since 1986. Originally a slant six car, been 360 since 1991. Collecting parts to make it a 340/416 by next spring.

While replacing the driver's side front caliper on my truck (04 Ram 2500), noticed that the sway bar end link bushings were gone. So, put these in.

Well, I replaced the lower control arm bushings in my 65 Barracuda couple years ago. Moogs would not go in all the way. So I ordered Delcos. Moog on the left, Delco on the right. Notice the difference in how the upper lip is beveled. Tops looked different, too. Moog on the left...

First Volare was 1976.

It is a Clay Smith Cams "Mr. Horsepower" decal. The Thrush decal was inspired by the Clay Smith version, which dates back at least to the fifties or even earlier, the company having its origins in the thirties. Mr. Horsepower - Wikipedia.

Bought my Barracuda August 1968. Here it is March 1970. Today: Motor in 1969: Today:

Those parts would be included in the retainer kit linked in post #17.

If it fits that tightly, I wouldn't think you even need a rebuild kit.

That top cap is a PITA to put on well enough that it won't come off again. This is a good fix. Mopar A B E Body 66-73 Steering Column Coupler Stainless Cover, Black Seal & Clamp / Retainer 3" There are other sources. I know there are some on ebay.

The blocks inside the coupler can be installed correctly or 90 degrees out. The are rectangular, not square, so if the latter, you'll have all kinds of play in the steering. I'll second the quality of rebuilt power steering boxes. Way back, I put a rebuilt PS box in my Valiant, could never...

Well this is how I did it back in the day. I wanted it to tilt because I was installing it with the trans.

I believe I used 3-in-1 oil for the speedometer itself. Graphite speedometer cable lubricant on the cable. Pull the cable out of its sheath, lube it all the way down, but wipe the top 6 inches or so dry because it will wick up and get into the speedometer, which according to what I've read...

Thanks for the update. Some posters never let us know how things turned out. Or express their appreciation for our advice.

Try lubricating the speedometer AND the cable. Either one can cause your symptoms if dry. I've had to lube them on several cars. Now if I could just remember what lube I used. Speedometer cable lubricant for the cable, can't remember what I used for the speedometer.

Same bracket as the early (64-66) 273s. That's why there are two sets of holes to mount to the head. You'll notice that the two lower holes are used on the wedge. (This bracket may have been used on 318s and 340s after 66, don't know. Mine is now on the 340 that's in my 65 Barracuda.)

The stock replacement pistons in my 360 are .100 in the hole at TDC.

If anyone's wondering, I ran 13.07 at 105.7. Top end is newer, but the short block was put together in 1990, low-compression cast pistons, .450 lift cam, 3.55 gears. Of course, now I'm thinking, a little more compression, little more cam, hmmm . . . .

No, no pix of that valve from below. But I don't think yours is in the original place - looking at the hook on the mounting bracket, it should poke into a small locating hole in the frame, and I don't see it. And I wouldn't think the factory would have put the valve so close to a 273 manifold...

Trying to get my 67 Barracuda ready to run at the strip this weekend. Will be the first time it's been to a strip in probably 20 years. I replaced the short length of fuel hose that connects the main line to the fuel pickup in the gas tank, and I also added a radiator overflow canister that...

I fit an early 340 exhaust manifold on the driver's side by switching to a power steering column and using an adapter (Firm Feel, etc) to hook it to the manual steering box. That put the joint far enough back to clear the manifold. I ran the outlet pipe between the torsion bar and the frame...

I have TTI's on my 65, doesn't look to me like the master cylinder is any closer to the headers than it was to the 340 manifolds I used to run. I did fabricate new brake lines from the m/c down to the combination valve, which I had to move to the rear to get it out of the way of the headers.

Right, that's why I had to add several washers, to get the sender up high enough to clear the floor of the water passage. I edited my post to clarify that my old intake did not have the boss.

Back in the seventies, I ran a Torker 340 intake. It had no provision for a mechanical temperature gauge. I just drilled and tapped a hole in the intake's water jacket, between the thermostat and the driver's side head - basically where the factory location was, and where Edelbrock puts the...

Back in those days, I-16 was usually just about empty. My Dad was doing 90 or so on I-16 on the way to Macon when a Superbird flew by us like we were sitting still.

I just finished mounting four new trailer tires on my open car hauler. I've mounted car tires before without too much effort, but these just about finished me. I assume because the sidewalls of a trailer tire are a lot stiffer than a passenger car tire. Anyway, next time I'll just pay someone...
