Do you have mfg. part numbers for the intake & carb? I believe to original intake & engines were painted red directly out of the Chrysler Factories! I believe that some of what I'm seeing in recent posts are aftermarket or Dodge parts. Mine is a 1965 Plymouth Barracuda & I am unaware of the...

The 273 came with 2 barrel carbs. Later they came with a 4 barrel on a Commando Intake! However, the 4 barrel Commando came after the heads & intake marriage changed the angle for that union. So the 4 barrel Commando Intake I have will go onto the 318 I just got & the 273 will get the repaired...

I plan on keeping every part I removed if has usability left in it! HOWEVER, my initial focus is to RESTORE OEM FACTORY CONDITIONS if at all possible! Upgrades are always a future path, but having factory original condition is a rarity that some still find value in! If it isn't being produced...

Thanks for your suggestions. I actually was foucsed on the engine when typing the initial list, but yes, I am planning on dropping the tank, draining it, checking for moisture, rust & varnish as well as the condition & function of the fuel level sending unit & the conditon of the filler neck &...
