I am in the process of installing a 1971 340 in my 1964 barracuda. When the 340 was rebuilt, they installed a 340 oil pan on it. I had almost fully installed the motor and I noticed the center-link hits the oil pan. on both sides. I am using the stock 273 exhaust for now and it also hits the oil...

I purchased new studs and installed them with sealer as instructed above. Thank you very much to everyone at FABO

Hi Guys, I just installed a New Borgeson small sector power steering box in my 1965 273 4 speed barracuda. The box went in quite easily. but I have a problem. The federal power steering pump which worked perfectly with the old... stock 'Gygundic' [huge and heavy] steering box does not work at...

Thanks Guys!!! For all the help. Just to be safe... I'll seal All of them, it can't hurt Angelo aka Guido

I am pretty sure I know but I don't want to make a mistake. And which thread sealer should I use. Thanks Guys.

I just want to make sure I am sealing the correct studs-bolts when I install the exhaust manifolds. So... I don't have to do it twice. Also, any recommendations on which thread sealer to use. Thanks guys, for the help

The bottom hose is on the driver side, the top hose is on the driver side of cap to clear my AC. I believe the water pump is the 69 style. I changed it to match up with the radiator that was in the car. Now I know the current radiator is for a mustang and was mickey moused and too small. So I'll...

I am leaning towards the 3 row. The 4 row feels like overkill for my 340. I have a stock mechanical fan now, and a pusher electric fan that kicks on when the AC is on. I'll start with that. If it over heats, I'll replace the mechanical fan with the Derale shroud and fan, with their variable...

OK I measured the 1964-1/2. The Champion MC64DT radiator dimensions appear to be correct for my 1964-1/2 white/gold 340 mild cam 3.91 gears push button auto barracuda except the top inlet would have to be moved to the driver's side because of my aftermarket AC. Ledfoot racing will sell me the...

Sweet car!!! Thanks for the radiator P/N. looking it up now. I do need the top outlet on the driver side of the cap to clear my aftermarket AC. The CC1635 Champion recommended appears to be too tall. I just measured my 65 see pic. The 64-1/2 is at my friends shop hopefully the 64 dimensions are...

I am swapping my 273 for a 340 into my 1964-1/2 barracuda automatic push button. Looking for recommendations on what radiator will fit. I am concerned about the radiator cap hitting my hood. Champion said their CC1635 will bolt right in, but I am afraid it will be too tall and the radiator cap...

OK it's been a while since I replied on this post. The day before I got the rebuilt '71 340 motor from the shop. My wife and I got t-boned by a girl on a cell phone who ran a stop sign while we were stopped dead in traffic. 23K worth of damage to my car. The body work is now 40% done so I...

This is what was on the intake with no thermostat. It came with a o-ring and no recess for a thermostat. Is there a Motorad style with the t-stat recess like the 4830kt housing but with the neck at this angle so I don't have to buy a new top radiator hose? Most pics on the internet don't show...

I just ran into the exact same problem. do they make these housings with the neck at an angle instead of straight up?

Great answers!!!! I reached out to Bergman Auto Craft they recommended 1.08 torsion bars, Bilstein shocks Dynamic strut rods and offset upper control arm bushings to increase camber. I am concerned about 1.08 dia torsion bars being too stiff. Any thoougts? Who else sells torsion bars for the 65 cuda
