Thanks guys -- that looks like the best option !!

I have been getting a rattle from the muffler on my 68 slant six Barracuda. After checking into it, i have discovered that I need a new muffler but also a new tail pipe (holes in the pipe). Where can I get these parts? It is a stock exhaust and has a small diameter pipe. The usual...

I had to get help. After trying alot of different possibilities, It seemed only right to get another set of eyes on it. The help I received on the FABO site was great and really appreciated. Sometimes you just need to know when to ask for help. At any rate, I just wanted to give a follow...

Finally fixed :cheers:!!! And the winner is -- bad pick up coil and broken fusable link. Thanks guys -- looks like my weekend is still a go to get the new Conv Top on. No - I am not doing it myself lol-- managed to get a professional to do a quality job.

Ok - I've tried the ignition switch, voltage regulator, new ballast resister, even tried a known to be working box in place of the new one. Have also check through the distributor and the grounds again. Still I have starting issues. I tried an inline tester and found intermittent spark...

Thanks guys. I have got it down to the ignition switch. I just haven't fixed it yet -- went away for Easter. Fortunately, my in-laws live 5 minutes from a junk yard. I will pick up some extra parts from the yard Monday morning and be ready to go.

OK - fresh start today - and a quick question. In reading an article to do an electronic ignition conversion, I noticed a reference to changing the voltage regulator on pre 69 cars. The article (Mopar Muscle Mid 1990's) says that the old regulator may cause the ecu to fail. Might this be my...

Thanks guys -- I will check and try your suggestions and see if it doesn't fix my problem. At this point - I am ready to call it quits for the day and get a fresh look in the morning. Frustration has set in. Any one else have any ideas?

The ECU is wired per the diagram and is bolted to the metal inner fender - not the fire wall. Is there something else I should do to ground it? I thought it was a good set up.

I just had my slant 6 upgraded to electronic ignition (MP kit with blue ecu). The car started and ran perfectly (better than it has ever run) when the install was completed. Test drive - perfect- no problems. Started every time all day until... The car was moved out of the garage. When I...

Thanks guys -- I guess 180 is going back in. That is what I was thinking originally. My radiator has already been done- so I am not trying to fix an overheat problem. I have a small leak from the pump and the hoses need replaced. I might as well replace everything at once (pump, stat, and...

What degree thermostat are you using in your Slant 6? I am changing my water pump and thermostat and it seems that 195 was original to the car. I was going to go with a 180. Besides the 15 deg -- what is the benefit or pitfall of running a 180 vs the 195?

What is the going rate for a BASIC engine rebuild of a 225 Slant 6? I am getting estimates and want to make sure I am in the ballpark. Need to have the engine removed rebuilt and installed when completed.
