Ty!

Hey - raising this back from the dead. My barracuda has them but, they are rusted and hard to get apart. Can anyone tell me what size bulb they take?

Looks like mine Brake pedal is about 2” higher than yours. Doesn’t seem like much, but, 8” distance from the foot on the gas to the pedal feels dangerous. If I’m right foot breaking, I often catch the side of the pedal with the side of my shoe. Can be quite thrilling. Also, I’m 6’4” tall, so...

Got my photos- let me sure what y’all think. Brake in neutral position Brake pedal lifted up all the way Brake pedal presses fully Distance between throttle and bake in neutral positions. Distance between throttle and brake with gas to the floor.

Man, so nice of you to post those measurements. Very helpful - tomorrow I’ll measure mine and see how close it is to yours. I don’t know exactly what yr referring too - but - I think I get they yr saying there might be an extra piece in the assembly that’s pushing the pedal higher. Maybe I...

I didn’t, but I don’t think this is the original either. There were weird non-mopar parts on her when we got her. She had a GM alternator installed backward with a Jerry rigged bolt for example.

I don’t think so. I feel the pressure build in the system pretty much right after I press the brake. And the brake pressed all the way down isn’t much further down. Maybe just 4-5”.

Let me stick a ruler in there so there is no misleading from the photo. I can say this, I've driven lots of old vehicles in my years, including early 70's mobile home toaters, and this is the scariest break pedal position I've ever encountered.

Oh? Not sure if the photo is misleading. Would you say 10” with the pedal down sounds right for stock?

Took some pics of the break assembly. There is rust in places I didn’t even know :p

Not sure if it's stock.

Hey yall, Got a 69 Barracuda that has a break pedal super high. With my foot just touching the gas pedal, I'd guess the brake pedal is 8-10"'s higher. It's a 3 speed auto with drums. Always been like this, I've adopted a left foot braking driving style just to have a foot closer to the brake...

Sorry - am I posting to the wrong place?

Tried to DM you @cudamark but yr inbox was full. Also, it may be worth mentioning that I'm not going for a tru super six conversion, I just want a bigger carb and more exhaust. I found a super six intake and exhaust manifold a long time ago, but at some point I will likely go Dutra Duals and...

Hey y’all, I got a 69 cuda with a slant six, and my trusted mechanic said the carb is bad. He said the air jet hole is too big from excessive corrosion. It’s a the holly 1920. Would a Carter BBS be a direct replacement? I’ve found this one that says it’s for a ‘66 Rebuilt Carter BBS 1-Barrel...
