Hey gang, I'm having a hard time figuring out which tail housing I have. The car is a '65 Barracuda with a crappy A833OD transmission. I can't really read the casting number. Anyone have experience with this? Thanks!

Hey there. I've finally finished re-wiring my '65 Barracuda but I seem to have lost the clips that hold the wiring to the underside lip of the dash. Does anyone have a source for these? Thanks!

So I need some grommets for my '65 Barracuda. I figured that maybe Classic Industries or Dante's would have have them but no dice. Nothing on ebay either. I'm looking for the fender grommets for the headlight wiring and the the large grommet that lives behind the headlight bucket. See photos...

Well, I'm getting done with my Ron Francis wiring conversion. I've also taken the time to make other common sense improvements like adding relays for safety for bits like the cigarette lighter, wipers, and headlights. The kit I'm using completely ignores the ammeter in the dash, and I have a...

Continuing my rewiring project I've come to find that my Ron Francis kit doesn't have provisions for the heater or wiper switch. My car is a '65 Barracuda with a single speed wiper switch. I'd prefer to have variable wipers but it's what I have. Here's my trouble: the large color poster wiring...

Hey gang, I'm re-wiring my '65 Barracuda. I need to make new terminals in the large black connector that connects to the back of the instrument cluster. I need new terminals but don't know which these are exactly? Perhaps someone knows... Thanks!

The new aftermarket turn signals are 100% garbage. For over $100 a pop I would expect way better. I've landed a couple of them and the cams are so stiff as to be worthless. Tired of messing with them. Anyone have a NOS unit? @slantsixdan is this something you're into? -m.

Hey peeps, I'm having a hell of time with the Ron Francis XP-777 wiring harness I'm attempting to install into my '65 Barracuda. I have a long list of complaints about this harness but right this moment I'm just trying to install the alternator. For years I've happily used the 3-wire Denso...

Hey gang, I'm installing a Ron Francis wiring harness, part number XP-777. Today was nice so I was able to remove the old under dash harness without destroying anything. And holy cats it was just a fire waiting to happen. I'm glad I made the decision to replace the harness. Here's a link that...

Hey gang, I'd like to find some trunk seals / grommets that seal up the sheet metal. It looks like there should be two rectangular and two 1" circular on the shelf and another large 2.5" circular seal at the very bottom underneath the spare tire. For that matter I have no idea how the...

Hey gang, I recently converted from power to manual steering with a new 24:1 ratio box. But it takes the strength of three men to turn the wheel. I brought it to a suspension shop and they reported that nothing was blocking or binding, and all the ball joints and tie rod ends are new and...

I'm looking to replace my cracked driver's exhaust manifold. It can only be casting # 3614368-2. The custom exhaust system is very tight and I cannot replace it with something else. Thanks.

Not a TCP firewall question. Heh. I bought this distribution block from Inline tube: 1962-64 Mopar A B C-Body Dual-Reservoir Master Cylinder Conversion Distribution Block But I have no idea which ports are which. No diagram came with the part. I sent a message to them but received no...

Hey, I've ditched my headers and installed some 1971-1972 exhaust manifolds on my '65 Barracuda with a 360. The passenger side is casting number 3618623 and fits fine. The center dumps looks reasonably straight forward to access in order to make a head pipe. The driver side casting is 3614368-2...

Hey gang. I bought a FirmFeel idler bearing kit for my '65 Barracuda. I don't see how it's supposed to fit when installed and apparently nobody at FF owns a camera. Has anyone here with an Early A installed one? I'd live to see it in place. They reference a magazine article but that's for a...

Ugh. Okay - I have a Hayden 2764 fan clutch, which as far as I know, is the shortest available. I also had my stock radiator converted to three cores. Add in the aluminum water pump. Little by little losing all of the space between the fan clutch and the radiator fins. As it sits all put...

Hey gang, I've been out for a long time with my '65 Barracuda in storage. It has a 360ci engine and a 4-speed OD gearbox with a hydraulic clutch. The slave is a concentric slave bearing from American Powertrain. The bell housing is the larger aluminum 10.5" size. My trouble is that the clutch...

Hi there. I re-wired the turn signal switch for my '65 Barracuda. But I'm having trouble getting the brushes oriented corrected. By brushes I mean the two sliding bits of plastic with little metal overlays. Does anyone have a photo of their steering column with the guts exposed? I could use a...

Hi. I have a '65 Barracuda. After six months, I've received my completely stripped front and rear seat frames back from the chemical stripper. I completely disassembled the seat tracks to have them nickel plated and powder coated. I took many photos of the disassembly, but then lost the...

As the title suggests I have '65 Barracuda. I've just finished removing the interior, grinding down surface rust, painting the interior sheet metal with POR-15, and laying down one layer of Hushmat and another layer of Ensolite. Like many, I dislike the basic safety elements of the car even...

I've been troubleshooting the turn signals on my '65 Barracuda. I removed the switch assembly and cleaned it thoroughly, along with the two little floating pieces that move horizontally when the switch is engaged to either direction. One small problem: I took photos (but then lost them)...

Hi there. Last year I installed a hydraulic clutch assembly into my '65 Barracuda that has an A833-OD gearbox. I've fiddled and fiddled with the pull-type slave cylinder and varying clutch forks, but I just can't get enough throw to disengage. I'm using a Wilwood 7/8" bore master cylinder...

I cannot seem to find a photo of where the distribution block would have originally been mounted on a '65 Barracuda. Can anyone share a photo if possible? Thanks! -marcus

So I have a new set of Doug's headers stuffed like a turkey into my '65 Barracuda with a 360. I've also installed a new Borgeson power steering gear and new pump and Bosch hydrobooster. My issue is that with the Doug's headers in place, they prevent either the expensive Borgeson...

I have a '65 Barracuda with a 360, and now with Doug's headers. I'm looking for a stainless exhaust system to run from the output of the headers to the exhaust ports. I already have a pair of Flowmaster 40s. When I poke around the usual vendors anything I enter for a '65 Cuda ends up showing me...

My car has a Ron Francis pressure switch to activate the brake lights. Even though it's a low pressure switch, it doesn't activate until there's significant brake pressure. Anxious to avoid a rear end collision, I'd like to wire in a stock switch at a the brake pedal. Can anyone show me a...

I have this posted at Moparts.org also, so pardon the double post. My car is a '65 Barracuda with a 360 and an A833OD gearbox. Both have recently been rebuilt. When I installed them I also put in a new Centerforce clutch, pivot and adapter plate, and throwout bearing - all new from Brewer's...

These were pulled from my '65 Barracuda. They have the spinner style insert. Overall very clean and shiny. A few scratches but nothing serious. No dents. The only bad part is the worn black paint. Asking $150 shipped free from Portland, Oregon in the lower 48, otherwise actual shipping costs...

I have a set of eight (8) new old stock pistons for a 273. I bought these for rebuilding my '65 Barracuda 273 engine but I ended up buying a different motor instead. They are new old stock, in excellent shape. They are not oversized. Asking $125 shipped from Portland, Oregon. Thanks, Marcus

I have my dash bezel and gauges torn apart for cleaning and maybe some replacement. The gauge face numbers have yellowed and faded with time. Does anyone have any clever ideas how to clean them? Obviously alcohol or ammonia would wipe the white stencils right off the faces. I'd like to hear from...
