    Question regarding proper installation of upper shock bushing and torque

    I’m stuck right now as well. Did you figure out what you needed and the sequence? My bushings were pretty dry rotted that’s why I removed them. Having a hard time even figuring out the parts needed. Any help would be appreciated! Done shocks before figured it would be the easy part.

    Blower fan removal

    Old thread but how did you eventually get the fan separated from the motor? Mine is rusted on and is a pain. Kind of at a loss because I can’t afford to break anything because of part availability.

    Location of factory auto floor shift

    I’m hoping someone could help me. I have a 1965 barracuda and quite awhile ago I removed the old automatic floor shifter and ground off the old brackets so I could install a promatic hurst shifter and I had work on the tunnel. I just laid down sound deadening and realized I should have figured...

    Radiator dimensions abody vs bbody

    I don’t have a radiator to reference unfortunately. I’m going to run a magnum 5.9. Old Kimmer brings up a good point on the thickness. I think magnums eat more room in the front of the engine because of the factory fan or maybe the water pump.

    Radiator dimensions abody vs bbody

    I saw this thread and wanted clarity on the early A fitment for a 65 b body radiator. I have a chance to buy a 4 core b-body radiator part no. 18398 that was redone and never used. I have a 65’ barracuda. Looked everywhere for what I’m asking. Help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Changing to manual steering.

    Sweeet! I assumed the pic from earlier was an older one. I’m on that. Thanks I didn’t find it.

    Changing to manual steering.

    Looked up the part on multiple websites. $213 was the cheapest price. I do like the idea of the part.

    Changing to manual steering.

    Phishta, old thread but wondered what is the difference in length between manual and power steering? I read 6” cut but was that the difference or the rough cut to make your piece? Great photos by the way. Figure if I have the total length I can fabricate something up.

    Biggest/tallest tire on 15x4.5

    Great picture Jim! Looks awesome! The picture helps me a lot, it’s exactly what I’ve been searching for. 33IMP you are correct in my mismeasuring of my rims. They are indeed 14x4.5. Thanks for the push back on what I “thought” my rims were. Totally made sense how you recommended I measure...

    Biggest/tallest tire on 15x4.5

    Awesome info. When I get home Sunday I will double check in diameter and send photos. At least I had the width measurement correct it seems. Thanks for the help.

    Biggest/tallest tire on 15x4.5

    They had Chrysler sticker to the inside part of the rim. They came with the car and we’re in great shape. I knew they were narrow but I thought they were 5.5 not 4.5. Unless I’m measuring wrong? I don’t think so though. I measured from inside of the wheel lip on the rim, not from the outside...

    Biggest/tallest tire on 15x4.5

    Great, did I mention I wanted the rims for all 4. I’m confused at which car originally ran 4.5x15? I know not an early a. Yet they are Chrysler rims small bolt pattern.

    Biggest/tallest tire on 15x4.5

    I guess I was after something that filled in the wheel well opening and didn’t make the car look like it was sitting like a Honda Civic. The rims I got with the car are in super good shape. I didn’t realize their size until later. Thanks for the advise on what will and won’t work.

    Biggest/tallest tire on 15x4.5

    Thanks for the response. I searched and the only tires I found are the Mickey Thompson’s, which I am sure are super awesome. Are there other makes?

    Biggest/tallest tire on 15x4.5

    I have a 65’barracuda that has a beautiful set of sbp 15x4.5 steelies. I’m wondering which size tires will work to give me the widest and tallest option? I’m using the wheels all away around until I can acquire something wider for the rear. I heard 215/65/15 would be ok but wasn’t sure about...

    Cam washer kit

    As for materials or someone helping me? I’ve been using a book that shows how to rebuild a small block Chrysler engine most of the info is for a magnum but I overlooked the washer. Feel pretty dumb about it. A lot of the people on here have been more helpful then the book actually. Just...

    What’s the larger round piece surrounding the cam washer? Also thank you for the pic. I did mention that I’m going to use an electric fuel pump? Thanks for all the help. I’m a whole lot less freaked out now.

    Cam washer kit

    Do I have to remove the timing gear and chain? Or does the washer go behind the cam bolt? I’ve looked for pics but haven’t seen anything.

    Cam washer kit

    Also does ok so I have in possession 7011 bolt and washer kit. Looks like the correct one. Does the timing set come out. I have it right on the money right now and hate to dial everything back in. Sorry about the tenacious writing I’m trying not to throw up.

    I bought the proper set from Hughes. Does it go in the front of the cam?

    Cam washer kit

    I’m a bit nervous here because I put together my magnum 360 with a long snout cam from Hughes but did not use the cam washer and bolt. I had a ton of parts on my work bench and just now found the washer and bolt. Never noticed any issues when I put the engine together? It’s my first build...

    Dip stick length

    I read some articles about dip stick length but I wondered if some one could give me a measurement for the stick itself. I installed a summit quart center sump for an la motor. The dipstick is a mr. Gasket chrome housing/dipstick for a la 318. I do not have the magnum dipstick, I tossed it in...

    Timing chain guides?

    So I am getting ready to install my new cloyes 3028x timing chain set (double roller). I then realized I did not purchase a timing chain guide (tensioner). I read at one time I didn’t want to use a guide with a double roller chain because the guides let off plastic.? Is my logic off? I am...
