    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    Yes with Indy heads and all. Built as a streetable version of the original Super Stock cars. It’s as nice underneath as on top and very docile to drive.

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    OK all. I have posted in the for sale section my entire drivetrain that I had bought for this project. Looking to sell as a whole for now (I’m hoping).

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    I am deciding to let the drive train go on this project. I am selling the 6.1, the SRT8 jeep manifolds, engine mounts, and A518 transmission if anyone is interested. I’ll make an official post in the for sale section later. I am overwhelmed with projects and need to get rid of things.

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    This car is a big reason for me to decide to stop on the project. At some point in the future, I will be able to purchase it. It’s so beautifully done, Hemi under the hood, originally a 340 Formula S car, it really needs nothing. So instead of devoting time and money into the project car, I’ll...

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    It’s been forever seems since I’ve been back here. Lots of life events have happened over the last couple of years and I’ve started to grow little interest in throwing the money and time into this project unfortunately. I’ve had friends disappointed to hear this as well as some of you may be...

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    The 6.1 Jeep manifolds showed up today. These really are neat pieces and appear that they will to do a very good job at keeping tight to the block. I am thinking of cleaning these up I some way, I am just not sure which method yet. Tossing around a few ideas in my head.

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    Started cleaning the engine bay to see how good or bad of shape the paint was in. So far, it hasn’t turned out too bad! The driver’s side took a lot of elbow grease to get the caked on gunk. There was something underneath the grease that seemed to be almost bonded to the paint in front of the...

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    Luckily got my hands on a set of 6.1 Jeep manifolds and they are in the mail. Big thanks to O.J. for those!!!

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    That spool mount that TTi sells that you show is for spool k members 73-76. I’m using a stock ‘69 K member which would require the biscuit mount. But I do like the idea of moving the passenger mount on the stock K for the oil filter. I may give some thought to that since I do have some amount...

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    Was ready to order a set of Schumacher mounts through Mancini. For some reason I couldn’t add the mounts to my cart. So I called them up and sure enough, backordered. So I ask how long they’ve been out and he says months with no idea when they’ll get new mounts! Ugh! So I hit up Schumacher and...

    6.1 Hemi 69 Barracuda Fastback Father Son Project

    Ok I am using 6.1 Jeep manifolds, not the 5.7. Guess I’ll see if it fits and it not, go manual.

    6.1 Hemi 69 Barracuda Fastback Father Son Project

    Curious if the manual steering box has to be used or if a power unit could be used with a G3?

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    So does the lower location of the alternator interfere, hence moving it to the top?

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    My Dart has been 10.40’s. I don’t expect the Barracuda will be close to that. If it 60’ well, yeah probably a mid 11 sec car I would think. Maybe it will surprise me who knows!

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    It’s just a stock 6.1 so it’s not going to be anything crazy. Maybe run high 11’s. It won’t be as powerful or as fast as my small block dart but it should be enjoyable to drive.

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    I run a spooled 4.56 in my Dart and it’s mostly street driven. Yeah it don’t turn as good as it would with a sure grip but it doesn’t bother me at all. But I don’t drive in the rain either.

    Gen III Hemi Prices

    Had a friend that got into a wreck with his ‘69 Charger and totaled it. Scans found life threatening bone cancer in his arm, was going to have to go through a bone replacement surgery, and the guy has 5 little girls running around too. He had a 6.1 pulled from a charger or challenger and it only...

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    Yes it is a true Formula S 340 car. But has undergone some surgery to be built as a street replica of the super stock cars. So it has a built Hemi in it that has Indy heads and a mild-ish cam, fiberglass hood and fenders, etc. Its been in a Mopar Action magazine and won best paint at Mopar...

    You don’t happen to have a link to a build thread or a part number for the headers do you?

    Thank you sir! That’s the kind of info I need!

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    Oh hell no! I’d be living in a ditch somewhere lol. I’ll own this one eventually and it’s definitely almost a brother to my Dart. But a lot nicer.

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    Yep planning on doing most of the fab work. I’ve done a 200-4R swap and this swap should be easier than that one.

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    Yup. And now I’m remembering, I still need headers, motor mounts, flex plate, and the list goes on. Maybe this will be a $15K build LMAO! :lol:

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    It will be extremely tough. I have about 3 times more than I ever dreamed of spending on my other build! Way underestimated that project.

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    I’m hoping to keep this build under $10K. For all the parts I have including the car currently, I’m $6400 in it now. With the trans rebuild and rear end work, converter, driveshaft, sun frame connectors, any worn out front end parts, etc, it will start adding up quick. But I think that if I...

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    To be honest, I didn’t know what the proper method of removing the console was so I figured I’d do some research before I go breaking something. I’m sure a lot of you have done it so what’s the process?

    6.1 Hemi in a ‘69 Barracuda

    Got into tearing the interior out and man is this car solid! Well at least for me. If you followed my Dart build, you’d understand my excitement to find something prelactically rust free. The trunk pan will need a little work but the floor pan is practically perfect!
