If that's a rubber bushing; Loc-tite Stud and Bearing should take care of that.

part way only

Did you do a compression test? A Leakdown test? A blowby test? In your case; First let me say; here is a wild card; if the oil has been washed off the cylinder wall in the low-reading cylinder, for whatever reason, well; ALL BETS ARE OFF. Assuming this has not occurred, then; If you only have...

I set mine at ambient temp of ~70*F. That way I can take all day, it don't matter if I a take lunch break in between. The magic numbers for me have always been .013 and .023 Too tight on the exhaust usually makes mine run funny. Like herky-jerky, but, Mine is 9.5Scr with a bit of a cam, lol.

In my 55 years of street driving, I've had quite a few cars with 7.25s/and autos and have never even hurt one of them. One of them even had a high-pressure, 340-2bbl with headers. Now transmissions, those I have blown up.

I won't pretend to know your problem(s), but like Rusty, I spent many years doing alignments in a tireshop. So I can tell you how to figure it out, hopefully in the least frustrating way. Here goes. I always check the CASTER first at Zero-CAMBER. Caster you know, so lets look at camber. In...

I switched from a 150 speed-O to a 120, just to get the better graduations. I used the same transmission Speed-O gear. However, I have seen cables be a problem in the transmission of the "signal".

Hi, back, nice car. I got my Driver's license in 69. My Second Mopar was a 65 V100 station wagon. and, I have had a 64 Barracuda, as well; as numerous other 67>80, A and F cars. I bet in the past 50 years, I have seen about every problem that could possible "pop up", in those cars. IDK if I...

Just so you know, for future reference; I have a 367/4-speed in my 68 Barracuda, that by it's trapspeed of 93 in the Eighth, is making 430 hp. The rad is an ancient one that I pulled from a 73Dart with a 318 with A/C. That would make it a 26" 2-row. I installed it into the original slant-6 core...

I've never seen a plastic one, not that I've taken that many cars apart, lol

What parts are gold-plated?

With the engine not running, that is normal. Start it up and test it again. You can Modify that box to make it better but, you cannot eliminate it, because the boost control valve needs some rotation to activate the Power-Piston.

Internet, TV, and landline; $165C per month. Yeah I'm retired too, and I feel it; so, I farm out my skills, for eggs, milk, and bread. I don't smoke nor drink, and my hotrod is parked, so, we're getting by.

Which cam? IMO; running just 160 psi with the alloy heads, would be a gross unfairness to them, as would running less lift than at least what the Edelbrock springs are capable of. As to the 718001 cam; Installed with an Ica of 68* the V/P ratio is predicted to be 126, about the same as a 5.2...

@Newbomb Turk Is that a race car then? or a two-cylinder? or a 6000 pound barge? I ran that 15/1 for a few weeks and couldn't stand it. A decent hi-pressure 360 like mine hardly cares anywhere between 9 to 11. I prefer a 10/1 cuz I don't have to shift 2 car-lengths out, in town. I actually ran...

And on that note, my Nickle-plated TTI's fit pretty good. 360/A833, p/s, pdb, 68 Barracuda with a 70 Duster K, and 73 steering, on the 70 biscuits with the spool mount at the back. Initially, I used the Mopar starter, but when it died, I switched to the Dakota ministarter. and I do not use the...

Even the Mopar 3.09 is a bit much for anything over 3.55s, unless you have an engine with a really sucked out bottom end. I mean I really enjoy my 11/1 starter gear because with 185psi CCP, it's a dump-it-and-go deal; but really, it's way more starter than I need. On the other hand, a 4/1 low...

Just so you know; the stock 5.9 has more than enough grunt to run any A833 4-speed, with any rear gear, in any A-body; and there are 4 SBM ratios to chose from. ...... and they fit like a glove ...... and on the street, they scoff at 450 ftlbs...

Assuming that; you installed the disc with the flywheel side to the flywheel and the BH is correct for the input retainer, and the over-center spring is installed on the Pedal assy and the downrod does not rub on the firewall, at full travel Then Make sure your Zbar is anchored on the...

Which Edlebrocks; the open chamber 340 heads; or?

I'm only 71, and my HO 367 is stone-axe reliable, goes 93 in the Eighth. It is now old and tired and rusty as heck, so I don't drive it much anymore. However, I would still not be afraid to drive it anywhere as I have in the past. It was built in 1999, and all bugged out by 2004, and now only...

My engine has a 276/286/110 cam and hydraulic lifters, and was initially set-up at 1/4 turn preload. This quickly proved to be inadequate, as soon after break-in it began to tick. I reset the preload to 1/2 a turn. And so it was quiet for a long time. Eventually, I got the idea that if I ran...

8* of stretch is not gonna make it run funny, but the 8* of timing change will!, lol

Just saying My 68 Barracuda has the KH 4-pistont calipers and rotors, that I pirated from a 70 Duster. I swapped the Dual Diaphragm out for a 73>75 Single, I think it camo from an F-body. The M/C was pulled from a mid 70s car. The Combination valve was pulled from a box of used stuff I had...

Nice cam specs, I ran something like that in my 11.3/1 alloy-headed 367, and I absolutely loved it. I was very sad when it dropped lobes.

I haven't read the entire thread, so this may be redundant, but here goes; Before I start; I remind you that most brake-fluids eat paint, so you know, if you spill some, wipe it off ASAP. The booster works by introducing atmospheric air into one half of a pressure chamber, the other half of...

How much are TTIs now? or Dougs? compared to a nice set of 340 iron logs? You're paying a lotta money for the logs and giving up a lotta torque/power, throughout the rev range. Any header is better than no header. Jus saying. ------------------------------------- While the 340 logs are adequate...

In my younger days; I would put my big 1/2 drive Johnson-bar on there, put the bar on the frame, and hit the starter. Bam!, the bolt was loose, and the bar was on the ground. Obviously, you can't tighten it that way, but if I could I would. But what I have done is put a bar on the flywheel to...

Here are the 1969 specs, For the 727; Front clutch/standard; 3disc is; .036 to .085; per disc equals .012>.028/average is .013 4disc is; .024 to .125; per disc equals .006>.031/average is .019 Front/hi-perf; 4disc is; .066 to .123; per disc equals .016>.031/average is .024 5disc is; .022 to...

Here's something to consider; New brakeshoes never match used drums. That is to say, if you lay a new shoe into an old drum, and manage to not hang it up on the ridge, it will rock up and down the friction surface. This means that the shoe is only contacting the friction surface over a tiny...
