    Wiper switch

    Sounds like you have a 2 spd switch that is bad and only working on low speed. Think of it this way,... 2 spd switch has three positions,.... Off, Low, High. Sounds like yours is only working on low.

    This is why I won't buy a FBBO gold membership

    is your buddy the guy from Fast & Loud?? :lol: Kidding of course! What you described is exactly what I think of him. No love for the cars,... just how much money he can make off them. I like Aaron Kaufman from the show, but stopped watching when Aaron left because I can't stand Richard!

    Rim suggestion

    That or he is assuming a bigger wheel automatically means a taller tire, reducing overall gear ratio. In either case, I agree that it's a bad assumption. My opinion,.... go for it man! Make it the way you want it to be! Kudos to you for appreciating these old cars!!

    Fuel sender issue

    Gauge bad maybe? Or maybe some resistance in the wire leading up to your instrument cluster?

    Why not? If that's the look he wants, no issues with that. I'm glad to see a 14 year old being interested in a Duster!! Better than a Honda Civic!

    More disc brake questions

    Get ahold of Cass at Doctordiff.com. When I was talking with him about my options for my Barracuda, he said he could get me rotors with my small bolt pattern, then when I switch everything to big bolt pattern, I would just have to switch out the rotors. It's possible that he has a big bolt...

    How close, is to close for rad fans to water pump pulley space

    I saw that thread too and thought about doing the same thing. It looked like it would be a fun thing to try. Then I thought about it and said to myself... "Self,... I ain't got time for that!! Let's buy one!". :) I did enjoy the thread though! Turned out good!!

    Let the Fun Begin - 1965 Barracuda Project

    I don't know if it will help, but I knew Brewers Performance sells used 4 speed humps so I popped on their site quick to see what they had. They had this picture posted for a 64-65 A body. Might give you an idea of what you will need to cut from the floor from the donor to have enough to mate...

    Caster and Camber.

    My Barracuda is set at -.9 degrees of Camber, + 4.9 degrees of Caster and about 1/16" of toe-in. We didn't intentionally set it there. I just told the shop to get the Camber somewhere between -.5 and -1 degrees of negative Camber and as much Caster as they could get, and that's where we ended...

    How close, is to close for rad fans to water pump pulley space

    There is definitely some truth to this. They help protect the fingers of people who aren't paying attention, or just aren't very bright! (Story to follow!!) Back in the 80's when I bought my Charger, it had a 440 with a fan like the one shown below, with no shroud. I stopped by a friend's place...

    How close, is to close for rad fans to water pump pulley space

    Well,... That didn't take long. I bought it from Mancini Racing. You are right. The description now says "Rated up to 10,000 RPM". I don't remember where I got the 8000 RPM rating off the top of my head. Maybe it was 10,000 RPM all along and I was just remembering wrong, or maybe I was thinking...

    Sure,... let me dig a bit, or look for my receipt to confirm where I got it. I'll reply back when I find it

    How close, is to close for rad fans to water pump pulley space

    One thing people need to be aware of is the RPM rating of the mechanical fan. If you look close, a lot of the "Flex-Fans" out there are only rated for 4000 rpm. Mainly because a lot of them are either all aluminum, or steel frame with aluminum blades. I don't run my motor hard, but I knew I...

    How close, is to close for rad fans to water pump pulley space

    I dealt with the same issues on my Barracuda. I talked to Cold Case about it and was told the same thing as they said above.... The only thing that would fit was twin 10" fans and a tight shroud. They warned me that the twin 10" on a 22" radiator would mean that less than half of the radiator...
