    The one in my avatar is sitting on superstock springs and definately is "Jacked up" it also has 29" drag radials on it. I have run Mickey Thompson 28x9 Slicks on several previous 67-69 Barracudas with stock springs/ride height with no problem.

    Looking for Tips on building a fuel system

    A Holley red pump with regulator set at 7psi using stock 5/16 pick up / tank and line was good enough for 11.70s in my 68 Barracuda mild 360. Nothing fancy or trick just basic set up.

    Took the Barracuda to the track today for first time

    SOrry it has been a while. Cracked back wins the prize "Pig Fat" it is. The carb had been modified by previous owner seems it is a modified 850 DP. After pulling several plugs they are severly fuel fouled. Bought a 650 DP today at a swapmeet to rebuild and try. Hope for lower ETs soon.
