IMHO: swap it. Unless you like sewing machine noises and no balls under the hood. Now with that being said - 273 is a bit costly to build power and you can only go so far with out bags of cash…. I know, I’ve got a built 273. If I had to do it again… I’d go built 318 for the money in my 66...

I have this same model throttle body on the built slant six in the 68 Barracuda. it is very tunable and drivable. The throttle body is used on 2002 GM 4.3 L v6 motors.The same size TB was also used on GM 5.0L v8's of that same era. The TB was disassembled, cleaned and polished internally by a...

Thanks for the response, there is a lot I didn't even consider from the start. My father nor I are very exceptionally handy when it comes to car stuff, but I am still going to try lol My slant and the new 318 are both equipped with a 904, and I think the 318 I bought was originally from a 71/72...

Radiator, V8 steering centerlink, 360 passenger car oil pan/pickup/dipstick if the 360 came from a truck, Early A cable-type V8 throttle linkage (yours has a throttle rod), the aforementioned kickdown linkages for A body, Early A body v8 exhaust manifolds if you have power steering- headers or...

Agree Throttle cable for the gas pedal conversion also. The engine mounts ot the 64 should work if not mistaken.

Here’s a link to my ad on Marketplace: 1970 Dodge Dart [ EDIT / copied & pasted from my ad on FB ] : I bought this car as a ‘one owner’ car in 2007. Factory v8 car, which I upgraded from the 318 to a 360 c.i.d.This is an A- body MOPAR She runs like a top and shifts perfectly. The engine is a...

Early A ('66 and earlier) cable operated throttle linkage. Early A engine mount brackets and insulators. Early A V8 steering center link (slant 6 link is flat, V8 link has a dropped center section for oil pan clearance). Early A V8 exhaust manifolds. 22" A body V8 radiator compatible with the...

Sold pending receipt of payment. I have for sale 3 decent throttle cables that fit most of the A body cars. The overall cable length is 24.5” from the pedal ball to the carb attaching point and 24” to the firewall. These are longer than the OEM 19” 340 4-barrel cables. Most likely these are the...

looking for 64-66 a body V8 floor mount gas pedal assembly and throttle cable in good shape, usually they have a white square piece of plastic that clips on the back, that’s rests on curved rod, looking for whole assembly and cable, thanks nick

Early A body V8 motor mount brackets $145 Early A V8 high quality reproduction throttle cable $120 V8 Manifold throttle bracket $25 Early A transmission cross members $50 without mount, $180 with 2 post 65 mount. Prices do not include shipping. I take PayPal as friends and family or us postal...

Save the motor mounts, V8 steering center link, exhaust manifolds, gas pedal and throttle cable assembly. The only body modification you might have to make is notching the torsion bar crossmember on the passenger side if you want true dual exhaust. You can do dual exhaust without doing that, but...

It's so easy to set up I can't understand why you'd want to jerry rig it, even temporarily. You need a Bouchillon or Lokar kickdown cable kit, a V8 throttle cable, and an angle bracket from the hardware store or a light metal bar you can bend to fit, to hold them in place. About an hour all told.

Is it a bolt-in? No. Is it at least do-able? yes, depending on your abilities and ambition. There are many differences that will need to be addressed: Engine, transmission, rear end, suspension, and electrical. Let's start with the engine. The '75 engine will physically fit, but the following...

1 throttle return spring brkt (front of manifold) 2 throttle cable holder ? 3 kick down linkage upper pivot, missing brkt it goes on. 4 rear mount kick down upper pivot / throttle cable holder ( might be mount for #3) 5 choke thermal pull down (slant 6???) 6 another throttle return spring...

It's essentially a bolt-in swap with a couple of exceptions. The 63 has a different wiper motor mount on the firewall that was revised for 64 to accommodate the V8 (distributor clearance). Also the 63 only had a 19" radiator where the 64 and later cars would accept a 22" radiator. Later slant...

Through 66, slant sixes had a rod, not a cable. If the OP is working on a 65 Barracuda, he will need the V8 accelerator pedal, V8 throttle cable firewall bracket, and an A body V8 cable, preferably a four barrel cable. Repop 340 cable will work just fine. Edit, if you don't care about...

Sounds like you first need to decide what you want. What do you need to get your 273 done? The cam I offered to sell you is as close as we could get to a stock Commando 4 barrel cam. It would work for a 2 barrel or 4 barrel carb. A used 273 or 318 crank should not cost much. Done, nothing...

the quick list: V8 904 Either adapting motor mounts or a V8 K-frame Exhaust plan for the V8 If the 318 is from a truck, you'll need a car oil pan and pickup tube kickdown linkage for the V8. Your throttle cable from the /6 will work Does the 318 come with the pulleys/brackets? something to...

One thing of note - there is some weird offenhauser linkage pictured which didn't work well for me. I replaced it with a V8 pedal and Lokar throttle cable but I can't remember if I left it on the car.

x2 on rebuild the carb. few bucks and you *should* be good as new. here's good start for some info: replacements can be spendy and tracking down a good used carb for a rebuild can be a chore. starting with what you have and seeing if you can make that work is probably the most economical way...

Hey sorry I should have been more clear. The car was running a couple years back and during our latest attempts my father in law and I have confirmed that the battery, starter, ignition components, and fuel pump are all in decent working order. The rubber is also in decent shape (no signs of...

A la v8 fits fine. I swapped two 87s. one with a 904 and one with a factory 5 speed the one with the 904 took a friday night and all day saturday and it ran and drove. That includes pulling the engines and trannys from both vehicles the dakota and the donor diplomat. I had a drive shaft in my...

Im running a full lokar throttle/kickdown cable kit. At the time I didn't have either and the throttle cable could be found but correct linkages could not at a reasonable price. I paid about 1/4th for the full lokar kit compared to what I would have had to pay for stock style stuff. It was...

Great information thanks so much for the reply. The transmission I have is a three speed on the tree the transmission and the 75 is I’m guessing at three on the floor with what he’s telling me is a 225 six cylinder. It doesn’t look like a bulge on the left side of the tunnel that you would...

Inbox cleaned up...gas pedal comes complete with the throttle cable in good shape for V8 2bbl which is why $50....

Then keep your eyes peeled for a V8 centerlink, too- if you don't already have one. And the V8 throttle pedal/cable assembly.

Yup, as str12-340 said, your forward kickdown rod is mounted in the wrong place. It needs to go on the same post as the throttle cable. You look to have a conglomeration of various parts from other years. The '66 and older setup is totally different than the '67-up setup. Trying to mix and match...

keep in mind swapping from a /6 to V8 you'll need to consider all the peripherals: exhaust, motor mounts, transmission, fuel line, wiring, cooling just to name a few. then you'll need to track down all kinds of fiddly bits like kick down linkage, throttle cable bracket and return spring mount...

...make sure that they're A body manifolds. Mainly, you will need an appropriate A body V8 radiator and shroud, and POSSIBLY a shorter V8 throttle cable. An exhaust system. Possibly some other details I'm forgetting, but that's the gist of it. It would be handy to know the year/original...

The one that you said looks like a speedometer cable is likely the one for the kickdown/throttle shaft under that e-clip in your second picture. The larger one for the shift shaft should be National Seal part number 8609 or equivalent. Link below. 1974 PLYMOUTH SCAMP 5.2L 318cid V8 Manual...
