I'm trying to make a decision about where to mount a tach in my '64 Barracuda or what I should do with what I've already done. On the '64 models with a manual trans there's a bezel about 7" square to the left of the instrument panel that covers the hole in the dash where the push button shifter...

Wasn't sure which forum this should go in so, if the mods want to move it, that's fine with me. I was wondering if anybody had any real world experience to show how close (or how far off) CamQuest is with its predictions. Has anybody here run their combo through CamQuest & then actually put...

Just received an email from Classic Industries announcing a 20% discount through the rest of December. Here's the discount code. HWS2010 Supposed to be good through midnight December 31st.

I hope this is okay. If not then the moderators can move it or delete it. I recently did business with a guy that makes custom hood emblems. They are like the factory Mopar emblems that were on the shaker scoops, factory scooped hoods etc., except he makes them to order with your personal...

Anybody watch the TV show Lie To Me last night? There was a gang member on the show who was driving a really nice Scamp or Dart. I didn't get a really good look at it but it was either gold or brown with black stripes down the top & I think it had scoops on it. Sounded pretty healthy too...

I'm hoping to start on my 408 Edelbrock headed stroker this spring or summer. I haven't done a V8 performance build in well over 30 years so I'm sure some things have changed. I plan to have my block zero-decked, bored, & align-honed. I have to make a 200 mile plus round trip next week & plan...

Sorry to do this but I need to know. Is a 3.23 Sure Grip in a 489 case worth $300? Not sure if it's cone or clutch type. It's an entire 8 3/4" rear from a B body. It's close enough that I could drive to pick it up. I've been thinking about a 3.23 or similar for my car to use when the 3.91 I...

Bought stuff from both these guys. No problems. 7172 duster even shipped the parts before I payed him! :cheers:

This might be a bit long winded, but here goes... Another persons post about the 69 timing cover has got me thinking about how I should do things. I have a 360 roller cam LA engine (complete with all brackets & pulleys) that I'm leaning towards building into a 408 with Edelbrock heads to use...

Just saw this. Don't know anything about it but what it says in the auction. Looks decent in the pics. 16 hours left. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=220333720098&ih=012&sspagename=WDVW&category=6201&viewitem=

Don't know if anybody else has posted on this. Just got my new issue of Mopar Muscle & there's Johnny Dart's convert in the PentaStars section on page 70! Way to go!

This is kind of a Mopar question because it's about my AMC Eagle 4wd Wagon & some people consider them Mopars...........sorta. :-D I have an auxiliary oil cooler on my car. It is currently hooked up with a thermostatic "sandwich" style adapter between the filter & the block & is plumbed...

I've seen others ask & now I'm doing it too. I tried to use the VIN decoder but had no luck. I'm not sure what numbers to put into it. It kept saying the number was too short. I also tried taking photos of the plate to post but my kids seem to have lost the cable for downloading pics off of...

This was on ebay a while back & was bid up to $610 IIRC & didn't meet the reserve. At least with this relisting we have an idea of how much he wants for the thing. I know the topic has been "done to death" & maybe I'm just out of touch, but isn't this a bit overpriced?!? :dontknow...

To make a very long story short, I kinda' got screwed over a bit & am now having to completely rethink my engine build. I have a 340 block, a roller cam, a set of Edelbrock 60779 heads, & am wanting opinions on stroker kits. Things like the strength differences between the cast & forged...

Did anybody else see the article about the 71 Hemi Cuda in the new Mopar Muscle? It's another one of those stories about a guy who got a loaded car & drove it for a bit then just parked it for 30+ years. Unbelievable! :shock: Just over 11,000 miles, leather interior, 4 speed, this car...

I plugged the VINs for a couple of cars I have into the VIN Decoder & these are the two sequence numbers I got; 724890 726360 These have something to do with the 10,000 day calendar, right? How do I determine the build dates from these? I looked in the tech archives & couldn't find...

I'm looking for some on-line color photos of the original Hurst Hemi Under Glass. Everything I've found is of the '66 & later ones, but I'm sure there was one based on the '64-'65 body style.

Looking FAR into the future I am again running ideas through my head as to paint for my '64 Barracuda. I plan to use painted steel wheels & will have the scoop shown in my avatar. In the past I have thought about the original white, a really bright lime green with a gold metallic flake & a...

I just found this on ebay. It is a brand new BFG Silvertown spare tire on rim. I think somebody here was looking for one of these for a restoration, but I can't find the post. I'm putting it here & maybe the person who needs it will be lucky enough to spot it before the auction ends...

I'm weighing my options here. I'd like an honest answer from some of you stroker smallblock guys as to what it really cost to build your engine, from oil pan clear up through the carburetion system. I'm trying to decide whether to just build the 340 I have, build some sort of stroker engine...

I know they're not for an A body, but I think any true Mopar person would have to drool just a bit over these. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MOPAR-1963-Chrysler-300-J-short-ram-manifolds_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ34202QQihZ010QQitemZ200074672572QQrdZ1...

Just bought a 20 gallon parts washer. I'm looking for recommendations on what solvent to use. It holds 12 gallons. They want about $40 for a 5 gallon can of solvent at the store where I bought the washer. The instructions say you can use Diesel (LOTS cheaper than $8/gal. for the stuff above)...

Can somebody tell me if "Sassy Grass" green is a metallic color? I've looked at paint chips on line & I can't tell. Thanks! :burnout:

I saw these cars on eBay & thought somebody here on the forum might be interested. I have no connection to the cars or the people selling them, just passing along the info. 1971 Dodge Dart Swinger 318, 67,000 miles, lots of documentation...

I finally managed to tow my '64 Barracuda home to South Dakota, after having stored it in Nebraska for about 8 years. When I went to get it, I found that some things had been stolen from my storage building. :angry4: I appear to be missing the following items: N.I.B. gold Ansen...

Found this on ebay this morning. It's a NOS dealer AC kit, minus the compressor, for 70 through 73 A Bodies with a small block. Thought somebody here might be interested. Wish it would fit my car. :sad1...

I'm going to build a 340 for my '64 Barracuda. It will be used almost exclusively as a fair-weather street car, & will have a six pack, 4 speed & currently has a 3.91 sure grip. The car was cut for Cyclone fenderwell headers about 30 years ago. I still have the headers & they are in good...

Saw this listed on ebay today. Thought maybe somebody with a slant six might be interested. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Early-60-mopar-slant-six-dual-carb-Offenhauser-manifold_W0QQitemZ8035464960QQcategoryZ36474QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem :burnout:
