Hi guys. I currently have 275/60r15 Bf Goodrich on the rear and have been given a set of 28x10.5-15 M/T sportsman pro's. The Bf's just fit, with about 1/2 an inch of clearance from the leaf spring. Just wondering if anyone has tried this tyre and if they will fit.

Hi guys, Well I'm just about ready to start spending some more $$ on my barracuda. My aim is to get a consistent mid 10's Street and strip car, but I want to keep it period looking, with the exception of shocks and tyres. A couple of my mates have just completed drag challenge down here is...

This is the second time a pushrod has come out and also pushed the lifter out of its bore. Lunati solid cam and lifters. Pwr 1.6 rockers. ( yes I know, that's all I can afford) I've done the lash a few times now at 0.14" as suggested on the lunati cam card. Shouldn't try 0.10"? Only does...

Cut the top and bottom tanks of my old champion radiator that was in my 440, 67 barracuda. The cores are tiny. I could barely fit some 0.6 MIG wire through. This rad was setup with a shroud and twin 1300cfm fans. Still didnt work. I'm planning on buying a decent core and making a twin pass...

Tried a milodon windage tray on my 893 pan and it's nowhere near a decent fit. I have a 402 pan and the tray fits fine on that. Will 402 pan clear factory big block A body k frame and steering etc.??

My 67 barracuda has had its engine out, for what feels like forever, and I'm almost at the stage to put it back in. When I pulled it, I left the 4 speed in place.( with the fork left in there) What's the best method for a reinstall. 1. Lower engine back in and stuff around lining the clutch...

Hi guys, Advice on which ratio roller rockers to choose? 1.5 or 1.6. My gut says 1.5 with this ridiculous cam profile. Solid flat tappet, matching lifters and valve springs. Iron closed chamber heads.

Hi guys, Finally got my 440 engine back from the engine builder. Although my instructions were to put a decent hydraulic cam back in, they put a 3 bolt, lunati solid flat tappet cam in. I had them assemble the heads and they assembled the short block assembly. So I'm gonna need a set of...

A mopar radiator has come up for sale locally p/n 2582931. In the book, it's for A body, 22", to suit 273v8. Will this work in my 440 /4 spd, 67 barracuda? Thoughts, suggestions. I do have a champion with shroud and twin Thermos but want something that looks original and use a...

Now that my motor is out, I've been looking at my steering. Everything in the front end is new except the steering box and steering column. I did put the new spacers, seals and retaining clip in for the coupler but I am still getting exactly 1 3/4 freeplay movement at the steering wheel. It...

I'm entertaining thee idea of going back to the original color on my 67 barracuda fastback formula s 383/4 speed car. A body Barracudas are pretty rare here in Australia, and I have never seen a good example in photos or in real life. Does anyone have a nice PP1 paint job they can post some...

Hi guys, Any idea where to get the stainless trim from. My big block car had this from factory but is missing. 67 barracuda fastback.

Hi guys, I have an original 67 383/ 4 speed fastback. I purchased it a few years ago and done a mechanical restoration, the body and paint were already done, but definitely not period correct. I'll attach a pic. I've been thinking I should redo the body and paint but I'm not a fan of the...

We're doing up a 352 hemi at work and the customer remembers see thru spark plug leads back when he was a kid at the drags. You could actually see the spark pulse down the lead when the car was running. I've been searching the net to see if someone still makes them, but no luck so far. Is this...

Hi guys, When I bought my barracuda, it already had the "blackout" treatment on all the chrome and stainless and also the grille. It's painted in 2k and was wondering the best method to remove this. I would like to start with the grille. Should I soda blast it? How will the plastic hold up...

Hi guys. I need the torque setting specs for an early 354 hemi flexplate to engine. can anyone help. Searched the Web and no luck.

So I've pulled the 440 out of the barracuda and stripped it down. She is a virgin bore 76 model which is running a forged factory crank( I put that in), factory cast rods and factory cast pistons. Looks like she will need a bore and hohn so I'm shopping around for new pistons. I'm using...

Well, I've been chasing an overheating issue for months now and after changing a never ending list of possible causes, I decided to pull the engine down and see what's going on inside. Is this white build-up on the valves normal? I use 98 fuel. I also found the block was full of crap in...

Hi guys, Does anyone know where I can get rear quarter panels for a 68 fury 3, 4 door hardtop? I've searched amd, but they don't list them. It's time to dig my dad's car out and give it a birthday.

It's an old school champion spark plug cleaner and tester. Pretty much everything is there but no power getting to the unit. I'll do some testing and get it going again soon. Cost me a case of beer. Gotta love that.

Lately there have been a few aluminium wet drag car blocks for sale over here. Kb stage 6 and a couple of bae blocks, some with crank, rods and pistons. I'm just wondering if anyone has used one for a street car, is it possible? -Are they physically bigger than a 426 -Would it fit in an A...

Hi guys, We got a new wheel alignment machine at work, it's a US built Hunter elite. It's pretty awesome, so I thought I would put my 67 barracuda up and see how it measures Up. I only string lined it up in my shed, so it was a good opportunity to check. Anyway my car has a 440 -4speed dana...

I've got a hissing noise every time I stick her in reverse. 440/4 speed 18 spline. I don't have any leaks, the box is new and the reverse switch is on tight. It's doing my head in. Any ideas? It's definitely coming from that area.
