Issue with the using the stock 4speed is that if your car needs headers, you likely need the larger clutch, which is the issue with fit. In terms of Doug vs. TTI, TTI isn't a two-piece; would much rather have the full single-piece tubes of the TTI.

yeah, it's the 10.5" and we have one of the Powermasters - says it's discontinued, but you can still get them. thanks for the info on the suggestion for starting the new engine with manifolds - unfortunately that's not really an option for us. Guess will have to take our chance.

Does anybody know the desired position/clock angle that the Power Master starter should be put in for usage of the TTIs? This is for the 10.5 clutch. thanks for any input!!

Looked into this since I'm going to install my TTI headers and want the engine in perfectly. According to TTI, the early Abody is offset by only 5/8" to the passenger side. Not sure how accurate their info is though.

If you aren't going stock, have you thought about an aluminum radiator? This is what I did. Got one from FBO (http://www.4secondsflat.com/). You have to have the brackets welded on, which is the big downside, but the radiator itself is really cheap. Save a bit of weight even. =) As for the...

As I look into it more, the 64/65 heads have a different sized thread as well. As for the angle, the 66 angle is straight on, which is the same for all LA engines moving forward after that - so the 66 manifold and heads will interchange with any 66 and up LA engine. If I remember...

I'm surprised nobody grilled the seller for saying it's for a 64,65,66; when the 65 version would have had different angled holes for the head bolts.

Good point about 500 likely being high. I guess my main point was that from my experience hearing and seeing so many cases of the 999 pink cars, that it's not on the single digits size of rare. Maybe 50? In terms of the fender tag, it's black interior, 2brl V8, Auto. Only other odd thing...

WOW Dave. I'm sure you might remember, I was one of those who found out that the standard 10.5" clutch fork didn't work. Props goes out to you for figuring out how to make it work. Of course, I now also have a set of TTI's that we will likely use. In any case, sharing work like this...

Well, it is with sad regret that I let people know that I have a new car in the stable. Sadly, my Mom has recently passed away, having cancer win a long battle. With that, I have inherited her 65. I helped her find and purchase this car, so it does mean a lot that I can now keep the car in...

OK - I own one of these Pink cars. I'll try and reply with info and ask a few questions. One - the paint code is 999, not 99. Here is a pic of my vin: I have seen/heard/read about at least 10 different pink cars. ALL of them have had ties to the Bay Area, CA. I have yet to be able...

I'm pretty sure the switch for my convertible top is shot. Is there any repo options or places that might rebuild something like this?

Using the late B-Body unit works well - I was even able to make a bracket so it works with my console. See pics on my website: http://www.cloudfactory.org/~josh/barracuda/shifter.html

Can't say I don't respect folks for DIY, but the pics of the results from these guys look so good, using them is my plan. http://www.cvvacuumplaters.com/Mopar%201-4.pdf

It should be pretty self-explanatory. When I went to a 10.5 inch. clutch, I found just a custom home made set. If you are having troubles, maybe brewers themselves has some pics and can help?
