Thanks for everyone’s help… after fuel pump, fuel filter, ballast resistor and lots of carb cleaner, I finally checked the plugs. They were filllllthy black, so I got a new set threw them in, poured a large dose of fuel in the carb and it finally kicked over and kept running. I don’t know if it...

It was dying so fast it was hard to tell if it was dying as soon as I let go of the key, it was a really old ballast resistor and cheap to replace so I went for it, but no luck.

It’s seems it’s getting fuel… I installed a new clear fuel filter between the fuel pump and the carb and it’s half full of fuel

Hey FABO, so a few days ago I was gonna take my 318 68 cuda for a spin but it decided it wasn’t gonna start. Tank is about half full… I’ll pour a bit of fuel in the carb, it starts for a second then dies when that fuel burns up. I had a similar problem over a year ago… ended up being fuel pump...

Interesting…What would be your recipe to do that?

Are you running on a stock block? What year? Are you going with solid roller or hyrdraulic?

You guys are amazing… thanks for all the valuable feedback. As a total novice when it comes to this stuff, i just don’t want to buy a hydraulic roller set up then wished I’d went solid… or vice versa. As you can see from some of my earlier posts I’ve been researching heads for a while now.. I’ve...

Looking at trickflow heads for my very mild 318. My car is a street driven 68 barracuda, weekend car, gets probably 3k-4K miles a year if that… i definitely want some HP gain with this project, but not sure what the best route is. If I go hydraulic roller it’ll probably be less maintenance, but...

Anyone have any recommendations for a machine shop or engine builder that knows Mopars in Orange County? I’m in Huntington Beach. Thanks!

Thank you for taking the time to write suggestions. I had a hard time tracking down an LD4B when I was searching a year or so ago however after all my research, many people said the Weiand Stealth is nearly identical to the LD4B so that’s what I ended up with… I’m sure they are within a couple...

Sorry about that, I cleaned up my mailbox, but it says your conversation is blocked... not sure how to unblock it?

What's up guys? Hey so wanted to reach out to the experts here... I'm really wanting to wake up my 318 a bit. I've been researching a lot but wanted to reach out and see what you guys think. I'm debating on buying new heads and a cam to make some power, but I do have a set of old 587's that...

@yotah1 sweet build man! What are the specs on those wheels?! Those 5x4.5?

Please tell me more... narrowed to A-Body width? What process do you use to narrow them? Chop and weld or sleeved? Either bolt pattern? What kinda price range for a complete housing with gears, axles, brakes etc...

Anyone out there have an A-Body 8.75" Rear? I'm looking for one for my 1968 Barracuda. I'm in Orange County, I'll drive to pick it up if it's within a few hours. I'd even consider it if you're in Nevada or Arizona. Let me know if you have a decent one you'd part with. Thanks, Shane

I do not have the heads yet.. a friend of a friend has a set that has never been used... I’ll have to find out if my 318 used flat tappet lifters or hydraulic roller... i’m trying to do this in my garage on my own with the engine still in the car... is this going to be a worthy upgrade...

Can someone tell me... Do the CH318B's bolt right up to an LA318? Do you have to run different pushrods still? any other modifications?

Haha wow, thanks for that post. Looks like one heck of a build... Hopefully I can get them in without completely pulling the motor! :) I heard the 90’s mini starter for the 318 is smaller than for the 360... Is that true? Are they rated the same as far as starting power?

Hey guys, I’ve researched the threads but having a hard time finding a solid answer... I’m installing Dougs (D453) Headers on my mostly stock 318 (68 Barracuda). Seems most people install a mini starter but some have not depending on the header... Anyone know if I need to for sure? If so...

Hey Todd, so the T5 kit i have from SST uses the stock bolt holes for their lower crossmember. I'd prefer if I could make it work somehow, just using your upper... After further reading, it sounds like your T56 kit uses the stock holes closest to the tunnel but then re-drill the outer holes, to...

Thanks for the honest reply Todd. Still trying to figure out all my options, but one thing I'm thinking is maybe I could try your upper crossmember piece and see if it works with my T5... If it doesn't I could either send it back untouched, or try to modify it. Would you be open to selling just...

Hey Todd, I am doing a T5 install... using a kit from SST. Their kit provides a lower crossmember that bolts into the stock holes, but their kit provides no upper crossmember and it has to be cut in order to get the T5 high enough... I was curious if your upper crossmember would work with...

Sweet! The clutch bushings are what I need most.. but if you have the full set I’ll take it

Hi, are you still making pedal bushings?

Hey ValiantOne, You still making these? I'm converting my auto 68 barracuda to manual. I have a stock brake pedal and clutch pedal but need all new bushings. Let me know if you have a set... thanks, Shane

Few questions...Will these bolt on with 7/16 studs? How thick are they? What is the centerbore?

That was my guess when looking at what was available... Was 2.76 the most common on auto 318's in 1968?

Found some numbers to the right of the cover, actually on the rear end itself, but they're barely legible, and more than 3 digits...

I have a 1968 Barracuda all stock, with a 318 automatic and 7.25 rear end... I picked it up a couple years ago, and finally getting around to doing some work on it... Anyone know what gear would've came stock?
