Thank you for that. So if I'm going from a 7-1/4 to an 8-3/4 I will have to shorten the shaft? 66 Barracuda with an 8-3/4 from a 68 Barracuda.

I have a 66 Barracuda with a 273. No AC, little four blade fan. Today while tinkering and hitting a standstill with the carb I pulled the fan and spacer as put on a five blade with an Eaton thermostatic clutch. Fit the pulley fine, bolts to the water pump fine. Was almost happy.... Till I...

Depends. If they had TBI then no. The TBI engine had an in the tank fuel pump and a pressure regulator and return on the TBI unit. There is a block off plate on the timing chain cover. My TBI roller 318 had a block plate but it also had the eccentric on the cam. Came out of an 88-89 Ramcharger.

If I put it on the Barracuda it will be a weekend cruiser. Mated to a 904 or A500 to an 8.25 w/ 3.23s or lower (2.9s). I live in Elko, NV and we have the Silver state race which is a a highway high speed bracket race. I am also not to far from the Bonneville. I want to make the car fast. Stiffer...

So far here is what I am starting out with. I have a bare 360 block that is .060 over. The machine work has been done and it is fresh, its sitting on the stand ready to go. A wrist pin let go and scored a cylinder so it was resleeved and bored out. Casting numbers on the block are...

Need an accelerator cable for a 1966 Plymouth Barracuda. With an auto, 318, 4bbl (Carter on an Edelbrock manifold) The one from a Duster is too long and I cant get it to work without binding. Need a shorter one. In Elko, NV

Nope. No good at all. Stuck at work.... yuck......

Any chance I could get some detailed pics and measurements of one of the ones you have? Could be a good project for my local fabricator.... `

Howdy. I am in Carson City!

Im looking to find a shroud to go on my current radiator (stock with a 273) or is there an upgraded better cooling aftermarket radiator shroud combo. I am putting a 360 in the car that is bored .060 over. I am worried about it running a little to hot. I am not against running electric fans...

Im not too worried about the rear gears that much. When I decided that I will put in a 360 the idea of fuel economy in my Barracuda went out the window. Now only if I could find a nice little valiant 2 door and drop in a slant six or a 3.9L FI V6 and an 833 OD....... :)

Mild performance gains. No dragging racing or street racing planned. Rather have a heavier/stock-ish TQ for the mileage benefits and driveability. The car has sat in my garage for the past 5 years and has had nothing done to it. Time to get it out and work on it. All I really want is a nice...

I tend to do that. + To easy with what you suggested! Thank you.

I have the stock 904 converter. I would rather get a new converter. Sooo..... All I need to do then is get a new converter for a 360/727 combo and it will go in my 904 just fine?

What are my options as far as exhaust manifolds go for my 66 Barracuda. I have a 360 I want to drop in and I have the stock 273 exhaust manifolds. Is there a better performance option out there. I do not want to cut the fender wells or bend or remove anything. Willing to go to headers if...

What do I need to get to put a 904 behind a 360? Have a 66 barracuda that I want to drop a 360 in. I would like to keep the 904 in there after I have it gone through.

I have a chart that details that info. Here yall go!

I have a nice freshly machined 360 that was on the stand covered. Over the weekend a water line going to my washer burst and sprayed hot steam and water for 2 days. I was out of town when it happened. Pulled the cover off of my block and it is flash rusted. Bores are clean but a lot of...

Who do we ask for? Will be in Vegas this weekend and the week after that. Close enough. I am in Carson.

308 heads have 1.88 intake and 1.60 exhaust 340 heads used a 2.02 intake and same exhaust. Im not too sure what that will do. From what I have been told (im building my 360 for a truck mind you) the 2.02 is better to run at higher RPM. More flow. The 1.80 is better for me since it will...

I guess becuase I live close to summit (Reno, NV) i dont think too much about a bad crate block. plus i have been to a few crate block parties. thats when one of your buddies gets a new crate block and everyone goes over to tear it down plasti guage and mic it all to see if its any good. if...

Im not a crack head..... It was probably a cracked head that has made me bitter! :D Still checking on the dyno. I need to get a bellhousing, clutch and pressure plate to see if I can hook the engine up to the dyno at work. I am by no means an expert or an engineer. So if someone has...

I tend to be a pessimist! Good deals are out there though! ;)

Yes. They are standard LA series heads. Yes They are the thick casting. I do not believe the reinforcement is obvious. That information is just what I have read from my mopar book and other sources. Keep us posted on your build!

How many miles? Was it taken care of? Could be a candidate. For free I would take it. If not useable at least its a core or you have barter/trade/core parts. Pull the heads. rotate the crank. should be nice and smooth with no resistance (some friction) or binding. push the crank back and...

If you want some of my background I have been tinkering with engines for a while. I have helped friends who have loads of experience with small stuff. I finally wanted to build my own. File rings. Balance rods, work with compression ratio and all that...... I took a class at a local community...

Crate motor. Cheaper, faster to put the car back in service with a warrenty. How good are your skills? Have you built an engine before? A good crate block wont need machine work and if you want to you can put a good cam in it from the get go. If you really just want to do it all yourself...

I would be more proud of the car then letting us know what contagious illnesses you have. I like your progression though! Chevy to Pontiac to Mopar! Good man and congratulations!

lol... no problem dartwagon. although you did have me lost for few. Yep got all the seals unscrewed i believe. i was wondering if i had to take off a panel or something to get that out of there. i do see the vent line where it is connected and plan to get some needlenoses and get that one...
