    quick radio question

    I have a '70 Dodge Dart Swinger /6. When I bought it someone had installed a junk aftermarket radio in it. I'm trying to keep the car stock visually. So I'm trying to find a factory radio. Trying to research this on the net is getting frustrating. Some sources say the thumbwheel style radio came...

    burn out question

    A lot of the guys at the Mid America Raceway Park website are saying to never do a burn out in first gear. They say I should do it in second or my trans. will blow up. I've got a 408 stroker with a 3200 rpm stall 727. It's not a manual valve body. The car is in storage now so I can't at the...

    caster question

    My '65 Barracuda started wandering all over the place at high speeds on the highway and the strip. after I got an alignment. It has manual steering and a 360 engine. I took it back to the tech and he said he couldn'tget the caster to specs. It's sitting at about 4 degrees negative right now. So...

    Break in time for new engine

    I just finished installing a 408 stroker in my Cuda. I'm using Royal Purple Break-in Oil. The car will be mostly street/strip use. How long do you all think on break in time? Should I baby it for about 500 miles? Or should I just run it now like I plan to in the future? It's already been on a...

    quick gearbox question

    The manual gearbox in my '65 Barracuda is shot. All the catalogs I've checked say their gearbox will only fit 66-74 A-bodies. Is this true? Is there a way to adapt this gearbox to my '65?

    360 virgin need balance question answer?

    I've got a '65 Barracuda with a 273 automatic in it. Unfortunately a rod started knocking last week. So I've decided to go with a 408 stroker crate motor for now and rebuild the 273 this winter. Question is I know the 273 is internally balanced and the 360 is externally balanced. Is there...

    hot gas problem

    Believe problem is the heat crossover passage. What do you all think is the best way to block it? Is there possibly an intake gasket to do this? I've got a 1965 273 cid 4bbl edelbrock avs.

    741 housing sure grip question

    I just had new gears put in my differential. I asked the tech what additive I needed to add to the oil for the sure grip. He stated that the small tapered pinion rear end didn't need any additives. In fact he went on to say my rear end would make noise and rattle if I put additive in it. Well...

    Ring & Pinion question

    I've got an 8 3/4 sure grip rear end with the "741" center in it. I want to put a 4.10 gear in it. But all the catalogs only go as high as 3.73 gear. Am I stuck with this size as the largest I can go? Is there a strength issue with this differential that won't support a higher gear? Is there...

    '65 Barracuda wants to breathe

    I've got a totally stock '65 Barracuda 273 2bbl. manual steering, 904 auto, and soon to be installed 8 3/4 sure grip. I want to put headers on it but the only ones I've found that are listed to fit this car are high dollar (around $700) and look like ground draggers. I ran it at the drag strip...

    1965 Barracuda's first time at track

    I recently bought a '65 Cuda with a 273 2bbl automatic. After several minor repairs, just to get it running, I thought it was time to take it to the drag strip fun drag night and get some base times. Then every time I put a new part in I can see the improvement. Best time was a...

    wanted 8 3/4 rear end

    I'm guessing this is one of the most requested items here. :-D I'm in need of a complete 8 3/4" rear end, '65 or newer, with brakes, drums etc. off of an A-body car. Sure grip would be a bonus but probably pretty rare huh? I've seen a few on evilBay but the prices are outrageous! I would even...
