Go by the dog pound....they probably have it in stock! :lol:

I got to thinking about the rear bar....do you think if you modified the bracket that bolts between the springs and the rearend housing, would it be easier and less risky than bending the bar? Maybe weld a new tab 1" outboard to each one if that wouldn't cause interference with the brakes?

Thanks! I bought that intake for a plan B if the 5.9 Magnum MPFI gives me too much grief when I put it in my 88 D100. :thumbsup:

No help on the rear bar, but how did you mount the E body front sway bar? I put one from a 70 Roadrunner, which is the same thing as an E body bar in my old 64 Belvedere wagon many moons ago. Used the factory Early B body k frame and just cut a notch in each side so I could pass the bar thru the...

The good news is, that the K frame in Early A bodies such as the 64-66 Barracudas are the same no matter if the car came with a 6 cylinder or V8. You just need some Early A V8 motor mount brackets and insulators. The steering center link on V8 cars had a drop down in it so it would clear the oil...

Did you have to hone the holes out in the Magnum bolt pattern to get the plugs knocked in? I bought one of those intakes a while back when someone had them on sale cheap. I noticed that the plugs seemed to be too big for the holes, is why I asked. You did a good job on the paint...

Let me put it another way......I don't get it! :wtf:

I met Rick at The Mopar Nationals years ago. Super nice guy who treated me like he'd known me forever. :thumbsup:

Unless you are just REALLY wanting to use the pushbuttons, get a later model 904 for a V8 and use it. You could easily use an aftermarket shifter to make it work. Finding a cable shift 904 is harder than it used to be, plus...you need one with a valve body from an actual push button car instead...

Now I see what your needing to do! You could see if an exhaust shop has some 2 1/4" two hole flanges that will bolt to your manifolds, and get them to weld you a piece of pipe to them in a way that you could hook to them. Places that do exhaust work always have stuff like that in a scrap pile...

Mike....I told Siri I needed a wock to throw at a wabbit, and she showed me pictures of big ol pans! :elmer: :rofl:

My iPhone was apparently made by Yankee's. It doesn't understand my Appalachian American accent! :realcrazy:

Old Timers breakfast @ Cracker Barrel....lol. My favorite! Be safe and enjoy this day. Tell the self proclaimed Grumpy Old Man I said hi!

X 2 on the black phosphate. :thumbsup:

Steve, if you have time to wait on your down pipes that fit the manifolds, maybe an exhaust shop could make you a flange to mate the 2 temporarily. If you have the flexibility to move the pipes a little bit on the run stand, you may be able to just buy a 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 inch pipe adapter at the...

Yep, on the 273 that I just built for my 65 Barracuda, I had to work the top of the intake runners over pretty good so the valve covers would fit right. My valve covers weren't even close to fitting because the block was decked to get it square, plus the heads were cut a good bit too because...

Check to see if your valve covers still fit with the new intake before you paint it. You may have to clearance one or the other.

If anybody can fix it, Geoff McBryde can! He grew up helping his parents run the Charlotte in The Fall Swap meet, and they are the ones that started the Mopars at The Rock show before the track screwed them out of it. I worked for them at both shows for many years. Geoff is very passionate about...

A little help for a guy who lives where there are no ice rinks....let alone hockey teams? LOL

You will need to use the lockup converter that hopefully came with it. Your other one won't work, and the valve body that is in it will need to be retained to lock up the converter. Looking at how someone had the kickdown lever tied back, I hope you don't go thru all the work to get it in and...

They're milking it for all it's worth. 5 or 6 hours tops. If it's generally a Chevy shop, the 90 degree oil filter adapter probably has them in a tizzy.

Glad you're doing better Kim. :thumbsup:

How high will the scale you bought read? I need to get one as well. My wife has a fancy schmancy food scale, but if I tried to weigh a disc brake assembly it would probably explode in cartoon fashion....lol.

I've pretty much used Pirate Ship exclusively since I learned of it from @CudaChick1968 a while back. One thing you need to be careful of when creating labels that you are sending to someone else to ship stuff back to you is, make sure you get the from and to sections filled out correctly. The...

Tim Banning, of For Hemis Only purchased all of the rights, blueprints and tooling from Eric Hansens family after he passed and has it available again. He also purchased Keith Black Racing engines. The whole shebang has been moved to FL. I'll PM you the phone number because we're not supposed to...

My plan for the kickdown linkage on mine with the 5.9 is to source something from a truck or van that came with a 46RH or 46RE since I'm keeping the MPFI and beer keg intake. I think that setup might be a cable if I remember right.

Back in the late 70's, they used to have The Bug Bash at Greer Dragway in SC twice a year. First time I saw them, I just stood there with my mouth hung open because I had no idea a VW could be so fast. Most were Beetles with 4 cyl air cooled VW engines. The track limited them to the 1/8 mile...

The only one I've struggled with until I got the hang of it was when we bought our 5th wheel camper. I'd only pulled tag along trailers until then and 5th wheels and I imagine goosenecks act differently.

You do a good job of finding stuff! Me? I have a tote container full of 50 years of linkage stuff that I dump into the floor and sift around and hope I find something....lol. Did you get the kickdown arm that bolts on the trans from a Dodge dealer or find it NOS?
