Sorry Jay - haven't been on the computer for over a week now. Sent you a pm

Too cold to get things out of storage and my shop has been tied up with my daughters car for the last 10 days. Will get some posted as soon as I can.

Looking for a Mopar of any kind that is in running condition. Will post some additional pics in the next day or so. P.S. I had a 69 Dart GTS 383 Auto. It was black with red interior. I purchased in in 1983 for 125.00.. and drove it home. Wish I still had it!!!

MOPARMITCH is correct - the "U" code refers to the car being special ordered through a dealer by the original purchaser. My opinion is not that the car is more valuable because it was special ordered - but it does add to the cars history! I have $14K invested in it and will consider any...

Just testing the waters at this point to see what I might get going in terms of a sale/trade on this original early production 68 Cuda Big-Block 4-speed A-Body. I have $14K invested in it and will consider any reasonable offer/trade. Hate to part with this jewel, but I just don't have what it...

I enjoy hearing stories about how and when Mopar addicts become “hooked”. My story began in the rural farmlands of Central Illinois when my gorgeous older sister was being pursued by just about every guy in high school back in 1969 when the muscle car era was nearing its apex. Our driveway...

Looking for a left side exhaust manifold for a 68 Barracuda Formula S 383 (2946720)

No - I posted it thinking that it might be of use to someone in abodyland.

Yes - that is correct on the manifold and carb.

Forgot to reply directly to OMR. Here is the info that I on the springs etc.. Heads were outfitted with stainless 2.14 / 1.81 3/8 stem ferrea valves, 3/8 Teflon positive valve seals, 7 degree chrome moly retainers, heat treated machine locks, and hi perf springs with 100 lbs seat pressure good...

As a newbie... I love this website. Straight answers from Mo-bro's - with part numbers like I asked. Thanks so much guys - I appreciate it!

I am in the final throws of acquiring parts to assemble a 383 that is going into my 68 383-S Cuda four speed w/3.23 SG. Block is .030 with forged crank. Heads are 906 heads that were pocket ported bowl blended with 2.14 / 1.81 valves (was running on an 11 sec Dart). Planning on running hyd...

Looking for a set of .030 pistons for a 383.

Not sure if it belongs to a survivor or not. One of 229 four speeds. Sounds like it would have been a really nice ride. CAR: Dodge Dart GT 2 Door Hardtop ENGINE: 383cid 4-bbl HP V8 TRANSMISSION: 4-Speed Manual Floor Shift TIRES: D70x14 Red Sidewall, nylon belted MODEL YEAR: 1967 BUILD...

Thanks for the pic. It helps in more ways than one. The car's original block cracked a couple of years after the guy bought it new. He ended up putting a small block in it, but luckily he kept the original heads, intake, carb, valve covers, air cleaner, and other parts. I had the block in the...
