Hey Everyone, Finally have the car (mostly finished) up and running... all you east-siders, there's a cruise-in at Nicantoni's Pizza, Warner and McQueen Friday night 5-8, I think I'll check it out... Don

Thanks for all the help everyone, I was able to figure it out. I do appreciate everyone's input though... Don

Hey Everyone: I've had my car out for paint for a long time. The shop who tore it down and painted it did a great job but the guy who tore it down was fired, all the pictures went with him. Now I have a '68 Barracuda notch all painted with no pictures to replace the weather-stripping in the...

@FredS, my son's a Honda guy, he has a buddy who has a 'mostly import' shop out there, he doing it all for me. Place is called Supreme Garage.

Hey Guys, I'll be looking forward to joining you soon. I bought a '68, 340-S Barracuda from a guy in Florida and dragged it out here. It looked good from 30' but once in the garage I couldn't leave it alone. Body in West Phoenix (shell getting done) Motor at Brooks Racing (getting torn down...

Thanks Steve, Yea that's what I did, bought an Edelbrock RPM. Waiting to get the info on the camshaft now, getting torn down and put back together. Thanks, Don

Thanks Everyone... I'll take the advice and let the M1 go. BTW: @Pettybludart, by low 6's I meant 6000 rpm not 6 secs. I'm just looking to set the car up to be fun on the street up to maybe 6200 rpm or so... Thanks everyone for the help, advice, Don

Yea, problem with this manifold is I can't find anything on it. The newer M1 (P4876334) now dis-continued is a 2500-6000 rpm Single Plane, I know I don't want a 3500-8500 rpm manifold, looking for something like the newer M1 or the Air Gap (Dual Plane) I suppose.

It's the stock 727, I'm gonna put in a mild stall, perhaps 2400 rpm. Right now, stock gears 3.23 will bump it later.

Hey Guys, Getting ready to modify the car a bit, looking to put the stock intake and carb aside, stock '68-340. The motor is getting torn down and put back together since I have the block out of the car. I found a P4452898 Single Plane Manifold, all bead blasted, like new. I'm thinking the...

Thanks everyone!

Hello Everyone, my name is Don, new to the site. I just bought this BlackBeauty, some of you may have seen it for sale the last few months in FL. 1968 Barracuda 340 Formula S, all numbers match, all original except the carb; he'll be sending that out to me, a friend had it. I'm an old A-body...
