    Barracuda hood insert resto

    I have a question. I have a 68 340-S and my inserts look nearly identical to yours except there is a deep red paint in the recess below the 340-S. In nearly every photo I have seen it is greyish silver like yours, but I did see one shot in a ad that showed a dark color. Are mine repainted (no...

    Ashtrays and Belt Moulding

    So Rick, so does this mean that maybe my car doesn't have those SS top door edge mouldings? I thought all Barracudas had them. I have the front transition pieces, will upload photo.

    First and foremost thank you for the response. Yes it is a Formula S Barracuda, I should have mentioned that. Nice detective work Rick!

    barracuda windshields

    Is that true for door glass as well. Curious if sedan/fastback glass works for a convertible?

    Ashtrays and Belt Moulding

    Anyone know where to get the rear seat ashtrays> How about the SS moulding on the outside of each quarter window? Also, is are the doors on my convertible the same as the sedan/fastback? Need belt moulding for them too.

    Need a plan - component selection for restoring 68 340 that runs on 91 oct

    So, right moper. I got a couple of things out of asking the world - experiences and education. The education is incredibly helpful, the experience and banter has been fun. The latest discussions on the carb are going to hit me at some point near the end of the process. I have a feeling that I...

    Need a plan - component selection for restoring 68 340 that runs on 91 oct

    Starting back with NM comments on the custom pistons. Thank you, I did not realize what went into that choice. I will stick with one of the two flat tops. Actually I am going with the KBs. Not going to stroke the motor. So how do the numbers stack up with KB's FTs using either Lunati or the...

    Need a plan - component selection for restoring 68 340 that runs on 91 oct

    Its like watching an artist paint And to answer the questions I'm not stuck on FT pistons but didn't know where else to look. It is not a highway cruiser, it is for having fun with friends around town with the top down. I was planning on sticking with stock hyd lifters. 703 is one of the ones...

    Need a plan - component selection for restoring 68 340 that runs on 91 oct

    Wymrider, you clearly know a lot more about this art than I ever will. I get the gist of what you are saying but I have only just played with the Wallace calculator and don't really understand how to use the published data and that tool to get to my goal. That is why I started this thread. The...

    Need a plan - component selection for restoring 68 340 that runs on 91 oct

    Auto X on your previous post, I think I have answered every question at least once and several twice (awfully long thread, I know). But to simplify, everything you can see is original or stock replacement and yes to everything on your list with a very small note that the AVS carb for the four...

    Need a plan - component selection for restoring 68 340 that runs on 91 oct

    Really nice write-up 69GTS. Thank you. I feel with all of this that I have a basic edjumication and can nail down the choices. but will have some experimenting ahead of me when it is built up.

    Need a plan - component selection for restoring 68 340 that runs on 91 oct

    AJ hell of a write up there. Seems the takeaway is you can get away with a lot by simply using the lower CR pistons as proposed and a lower LSA cam. If true, I will take another look at cams and throw another pairing out for comment. Nm9stheham - thanks for the info, I did not know that. I’m...

    I think I get what you are advising, though I'm a bit confused about TC? As you can see below, tt is a four speed car with a 3.23 rear end

    Need a plan - component selection for restoring 68 340 that runs on 91 oct

    Ok, here is what I'm thinking tonight and then a few comments. I'm mulling over some possible pairings: KB243KTM pistons with a Hughes SEH1620AL-12 cam L2316F pistons with Comp Cams 268AH-10 Or a bit more aggressive Same pistons with Lunati 10200702 or Comp Cams XE274H or Hughes SEH2024AL-11...

    Need a plan - component selection for restoring 68 340 that runs on 91 oct

    I fully expected this would start a fun conversation. You have not disappointed. The one thing that I would love to have heard is what the original car sounded like. If that was known I would have added that criteria as well. Make it sound like it once did. But my main point is to make it...

    Need a plan - component selection for restoring 68 340 that runs on 91 oct

    There are a lot of threads on the subject of camshafts and compression ratios, but I haven't quite found one that shows comprehensive approaches to this question: From a standard bore 1968 340 block, what are the cam, piston et-cetera selections to get an engine that runs great on California's...
