    Chrysler Pacifica reliability?

    2017+ Chrysler Pacifica vans, non hybrid. How are they? Don't care much for whizbang features, just reliability. I've heard the trans can be clunky, but lasts okay. I've also heard issues with an oil cooler? Looking to upgrade the family van. We had a 2009 Chrysler van and it was horrible...

    Challenger on Viper Chassis with Hellcat

    This popped up in my feed today: Mopar racers: Are they just built different? I'd love to hear more about this car. Anybody have more details? The Durango did pretty well too.

    A/C Compressor Mounting with Car Engine

    I'm in the early stages of my hemi swap and have been searching the forum a bunch. Unfortunately, some of the links are broken in the older threads. What has been done to fit the A/C compressor? This is my set up: stock k-frame (biscuit mounts), 2010 5.7L Car engine, TTI mounts. The TTI mount...

    Bent Radiator Support

    My 67 Barracuda's radiator support is bent. I'm not really a body guy. How would you fix this? Beat it back into shape? Too far gone... replace it? If I can bend it back into place, any tips are techniques? Thanks.

    Donor Car Part Out- What parts are valuable to resell?

    2010 Charger Police car. I've stripped everything out of the car that I need for my swap. Now I need to scrap the body. Are there any other parts worth pulling and selling to recoup some costs? I don't have a ton of storage space, I'm thinking smallish things that I can sell later after the body...

    94 5.2L Magnum running rough

    My Barracuda has a 94 magnum swapped in from a Grand Cherokee. Stock injection. After sitting through the winter, I started it and it's running really rough. It smells like it's running rich. It tries to idle down, almost dies, then idles back up. When I rev it up, it smooths out some, but not...

    Fuel Pressure Test Gauge quit working

    I have a fuel injection test gauge and it quit working. Won't register any pressure. Is there a way to pull them apart and fix them? I'm not sure if the ethanol gas swelled something up? Thanks for any help. -Dave

    Momo or Other Custom Steering Wheel

    I am looking to put a better wheel into my 67 Barracuda. I would like a Tuff wheel, but stock ones with the adapter are very expensive. The Grant Tuff wheel sounds terrible from the recent reviews. Any other custom wheel look similar? 14-15" diameter. I found this Momo wheel: Retro that I...

    PT Cruiser Flat Towing: Does Odometer count mileage?

    When flat towing a PT cruiser, does the odometer count the miles? I'm looking at a 2004 PT that was flat towed and they are claiming some of the miles are from towing. I'm just not sure if these electronic odometers count or not. Thanks for the input.

    Sanderson Headers: The Verdict

    There's been some speculation and talk about whether the Sanderson shorty headers fit our cars. I know @Blackhatguy tried them on his 64 and had to clearance them, but would a later car require as much? I took one for the team and ordered a set of DD8 headers, which are for 67-69 cars. My car...

    66 Dart driver's side mirror not same as 67 up?

    I have a couple remote style driver's side mirrors off a 66 Dart. I thought I could use one on my 67 Barracuda, but the base won't fit. Is the 66 a one year thing? Or is the Barracuda different? I'd like to find a remote style mirror for my car, but need to make sure it will fit. Thanks.

    Dash Caps Discontinued? Or 67 vs 68?

    I want to buy a dash cap for my 67 Barracuda. I can't find them listed anywhere anymore (Dante's, Classic Ind). The only place I can find caps is Ebay and they are for a 68. Have they been discontinued? Will a 68 cap fit even though it won't look correct? Thanks.

    Pinion Angle Question

    I installed Mopar circle track springs using the AR Engineering hangers, installed in the top hole (lowering the car). Now I have a driveline vibration so I checked the angles. The pinion is too far angled up now. (I measured with no weight in the car, not sure if this helps or hurts) To get...

    1967 273 Manifold Headpipe size/style

    I need to redo my headpipe so it seals to the manifold. Can anyone tell me what size and style these manifolds use? TTI says 2.25 with a ball joint. 2.25 seems too large to me though. Looking for something like this: Walker Universal Ball Flanges 41726 Thanks.

    Front End Unsprung Weight

    Has anyone calculated the front end unsprung weight? I'm looking for control arms, brake, knuckle minus wheel/tire since that varies car to car. I am trying to figure out my suspension frequency so I can pick a good torsion bar. For my own learning, would the entire control arm be unsprung on...

    Exhaust manifold gaskets (using LA manifolds)

    I am using '67 era 273 exhaust manifolds on my '94 Magnum. I used Magnum gaskets and they lasted about a year before blowing out. I know that there is a port mismatch between Magnum heads and LA manifolds. My question- What gaskets should I use? Magnum or LA or something for headers? I am...

    Vehicle Speed Sensor effect on tuning

    In this month's Hot Rod magazine, there is a "rescue" of a 97ish Dodge Ram where they say the vehicle speed sensor was making the engine go lean. Reason being, the truck had larger tires so the sensor was reading incorrectly. Does this really change the fuel mixture? I've got mine hooked up but...

    '73 Disc conversion, but keep 4" bolt pattern

    So, my dad wants to upgrade his 65 to disc brakes. He has a setup from a '73 to do the swap. But he has a set of small bolt pattern mags he wants to keep. It appears that these "Pirate Jack" rotors may work: ebay Will these bolt to the 73 spindles? Thanks.

    Pics Please: 2nd Gen Barracuda in Dark Metallic Blue

    I'm playing with what color to paint my 67 (not looking for a stock color). I want a dark metallic blue but I'd like to see some pics. I painted a model in "Tour de France Blue" a Ferrari color and I feel like it's too dark. In the sun it really sparkles but other than sun it looks black...

    Injector Differences by Year

    I'm still trying to track down some issues with my Magnum swap. I am wondering if there are differences in injectors by year. My engine is out of a 94 Grand Cherokee. My PCM is out of a 95 Ram with manual trans. When I look at Rockauto those two applications do not use the same injector part...

    Long Shot: Grand Cherokee Headers

    I've searched this site and found nothing about Grand Cherokee (1994 vintage) shorty headers. It appears that manifolds from a Grand Cherokee do not work, but has anyone tried headers? I'm asking because I found a set of Borla stainless headers in the junkyard today and they only want $40 for...

    Jeg's exhaust system: "deep tone" vs. regular mufflers

    I'm going to be ordering a Jeg's 2.5" exhaust system for my Barracuda and I'm unsure which mufflers to get. I think the "deep tone" is a Flowmaster style. The other mufflers don't have much info. Does anyone have a sound clip from the regular mufflers? I found one of the deep tone on youtube...

Intake plenum is...

    Torque to Yield intake bolts- replace?

    I'm fixing my intake on the magnum and I see that they recommend replacing the intake bolts. The Fel-pro bolts are fairly spendy. Can I go with regular bolts or just re-use? The engineer side of me says I should replace with TTY but I'm wondering what people with experience say. Thanks.

    Cheapskate Plenum Gasket fix?

    My plenum gasket it blown. I'd like to fix it, but currently, the Hughes plate that fixes the problem permanently is out of the budget. Since I won't be driving this car more than a few thousand miles a year, I'm thinking I can get away with just replacing the gasket. Is there an improved...

    360 oil pan gasket install

    I searched and could not find an answer. The rear main cap gasket on the oil pan is my problem. The ends of it stick up above the rails of the pan and I'm not sure it will stay in place as I'm trying to install. (engine is still in car) It looks like it might be better to install it on the main...
