This is on my challenger but the same MC as on my 72 dart and 69 cuda. Below is a pic which explains it all. My car was originally a 1970 318 non boosted disc front drum rear. It's now a 440 non boosted disc front drum rear. The master installed is the one that came on the car when I got it...

I've just ordered a new PeakDash(RMD reborn) for my 72 Dart Swinger and looking for suggestions on choice of guages. Most attractive I've found so far are offered by Mancinis http://chucker54.stores.yahoo.net/mavi19semuca.html Anyone got any feedback good or bad on these? Or...

One day...a long,long time ago....there was a woman who didn't whinge,*****,complain.moan or whine. . . . . . . . . . . . But it was a long ,long,time ago and it was only for a day.

It's not an Abody but it is at least a Mopar. I'm doing a 1960 Imperial. If it helps the car came from Florida prior to coming over to Australia abt 5 years ago. I have managed to determine the interior is not original through the blokes on forwardlook forum. The front seat has had a fire...

Got a 72 Dart Swinger 318/904. Converting from column to floor shift. Using an Aussie factory floorshifter and console but they are essentially the same as US stuff. Done plenty with 727s recently but been a long time since I've worked with a 904. In the pic below(from an Oz Valiant...

Would anyone have a decent pic showing how the linkages are on these? Or know of somewhere that makes repros? It's not for an Abody but a 60 Imperial I'm doing.

My Barracuda has now done 372 runs down the strip and 8000 street miles in the past 4 or 5 yrs it's been running. It started with all new front end components. It's since had a 2nd set of upper and lower control arm bushes and it's due for another set now. It turns 11.9@111 with 1.62 60ft. I...

I know mines a 69 barracuda but I suspect the tail lights and trim are 1967. You blokes are the experts. Is it a 67 tail?

Cyclone Yasi. Happening right now. This thing is apparently the biggest baddest one the WORLD has ever seen. A lot worse than Katrina they're telling us. I live in Townsville so I'm only on the edge of the destructive area but i can tell you...it's pretty wild outside!!! 35 suburbs in my...

If I had a set of 741 gears with 29 spline for the pinion yoke would a 489 pinion flange fit? I know unis are different. Why I ask is I'm looking to spool a set of 3.73s in a 741 case and the only gears I can find have 29 spline whereas the std gears are 10 spline. If so,I have enough...

What I have is a custom length housing and axles supplied by somewhere in L.A. Axles are 30 spline Currie items fitted with green bearings. I set this diff up with a spooled 741 case and recently stripped the 3.55 ring and pinion. What I've been doing today is fittng up a spare 489 case...

Broke the diff in my barracuda at the strip last night. Probably a little early posting this as i haven't stripped it down but looking for advice on whether to upgrade or not. The car - 69 notch barracuda 440 powered street'n'strip car Trans - 727 reverse pattern manual with 4000 stall...

Just removed the rear end from a 72 Dart Swinger and the front bushes are the smaller 38mm dia ones. The MP offset spring hangers I have take the larger bolt as in 50mm bushes. Has anyone had this before? How do you overcome it? I can think of 2 ways. 1.Cut the nut off the hanger and weld a...

A little something I picked up for the missus and have been working on since Xmas. The car came from LA and was a survivor daily driver over there. This is how it was when I got it. Stripped out and off to the beaters Blasted.Took the beater only half a day to fix what...

Can anyone tell me what's different between SB and BB hydraulic lifters? They are the same diameter but have different part numbers in an old Crane catalogue I've got. Different height maybe?

I was at the strip 2 weeks ago and went to reset my timing and guess what???:dontknow: The timing marks on the balancer weren't where they were supposed to be.:shock: Soooo......the outer ring has obviously slipped.:angry7: Now my question is......what's a worthwhile replacement????:help...

Can anyone tell me where to find the engine sequence number on a 1965 383? It's the HP version and in a C-body. There is numbers on the pad next to the dizzy but they're just the engine plant,date,model,etc. There's nothing on the pad on the LHS opposite the dizzy. Any help greatly appreciated.

Hey all!!! I got a case of the guilts when I recieved a message saying something like "we haven't seen you on FABO for a while,can we tempt you back?" So........I'm back to converse with you good people from the land of mother mopar!!!! When I checked my last post was June 2007 so I apologise...

Hey all!!! I've got a 69 barracuda and flicking through a few books I noticed the hoods on 73/74 Dodge dart/sport/swinger look to be the same with that raised pointy pressing down the middle. Are they the same and interchangeable?

Does anyone on here come from Knoxville? I may be a little naive asking as I have no idea how big or small Knoxville is. The reason I ask is would anyone remember a car I purchased from there about 2 1/2 yrs ago? It's a 1970 Dodge challenger in sublime with white vinyl roof.The previous...

Hey,how's it going? What I've got is a 69 notchback barracuda with 8bbl 440 in it. I've also got a tunnel ram triple 2bbl manifold and carb setup which will be going on soon. Rather than cut up my existing steel hood (they're called a bonnet over here :lol: ) I'd like to source a fibreglass...

Since I've just posted a question elsewhere on this forum I figure I should do the right thing and intrduce myself.Name is Ken from Nth Qld (probably sort of comparable to your deep south) and earn my living as a heavy earthmoving contractor. Been into mopars since 1975 and developed a love of...

G'day. 1st post here. I've recently acquired a 69 notchback barracuda which has just come over from California. I am trying to remove the auto shifter and console but am not familiar with how a US item is assembled. I've removed the grubscrew in the side of the chrome bit on the knob but can't...
