Need help?

67 barracuda with slant 6(for now)
Have about 10k budget for now so will see where things take me hahaha.
Plan to get a 360 magnum from the junkyard for 350$. Bought new gas tank and sending unit, filler tube and gaskets needed. And new fitted fuel line.
More parts will be ordered soon but I want to do the brake conversion and not sure if I want to go ahead and get full disc conversion or not. Any thoughts?

I love notchbacks and convertibles. Welcome! I followed the following path and lived with a slant 6 for 10 years. I finally was done with it and went the 5.9 Magnum route.

I would highly recommend upgrading the brakes and wheels to a big bolt pattern. Brake upgrade being the most important system to prioritize. Followed by suspension and the big bolt pattern (BBP)wheels.

Dr Diff can set you up with a four wheel disc brake package, a BBP upgrade and a suspension upgrade. Invest in some good shocks (Koni's or Bilstiens) and weld in subframe connectors from US Cartool while you're at it.

Once you have a car that stops and handles dramatically better, then go for EFI & an overdrive transmission and you will have an awesome ride that can out perform most cars on the road.
