Hey everyone. I've got a weird distributor issue that took me way too long to diagnose (since I kept thinking it was fuel - classic mistake...) This is a recently rebuilt 318 original to my '69 Barracuda. Pretty much stock except for dual exhaust and 4 barrel intake/carb. My (probably...

Hey guys, just wanted to make sure nothing is screwed up before I go any further. I just finished an 8.75 sure-grip swap in my '69 Barracuda. The transmission ship rebuild the center section for me and they tend to do good work. I've finished putting everything together (including axles with...

I've got my quarter windows rebuilt and reinstalled on my '69 Notch (what a nightmare) but I'm having trouble adjusting them. Does anyone have any photos of good-fitting quarter windows, and how the rest against the roof rail gasket and the door?

Hi everyone. I've got a very mild 318 (~8.7CR with essentially a 340 cam, edelbrock performer manifold and carb) and I'm my stock '69 2bbl air cleaner that's had the base adapted to the 4bbl carb. This is a single snorkel intake, and I'm wondering if it's going to be too much of a restriction on...

Hi everyone. Found out today my rear seat is actually from a '72 Duster (after blasting and powdercoating the frame, of course). I need the rear seat frame that will fit my '69 Barracuda Notchback. Condition doesn't matter since they'll be blasted, powdercoated, and reupholstered. I have a...

Hi everyone. I've got a '69 Barracuda notch and I'm finishing the interior restoration. At some point in the past, a lot of the interior was replaced with stuff from a '72 Duster (center console, 3 out of 4 door panels, and the rear seat). We only noticed the rear seat was wrong because my...

Hi everyone. I was taking about the window regulators on my '69 Barracuda. While they were out, I've been replacing the lock cylinders too. The passenger's side was easy, but I couldn't get the driver's side to sit flush - it's like the handle mechanism was blocking it. To make a long story...

I have a 742-case sure-grip 8.75 rear end from a '69 Dart. Assuming everything is original (yeah, yeah, I know...) would it have had 1.8" or 2.0" bearing journals?

It seems that the voltage regulator on my fuel gauge died and sent 12 volts to my fuel, oil pressure, and temp gauges, frying all of them. Looking for a fuel, temp, and oil pressure gauge for my '69 Barracuda that is un-fried.

Hey everyone. I'm trying to find a suitable replacement for my '69 3-groove pulley (for my power steering/AC 1969 Barracuda). MAncini racing has one that looks like it would work CVF Small Block Chrysler Crankshaft Pulley - 3V . But, they say it's only for 70-later with the water pump outlet on...

So, I'm following the pre-flight check on assembling my '69 318, and I'm having trouble determining if the main bearing oil galley plug is actually installed - it looks like it's just the block metal and I can see into passages that run parallel to it. Here are a couple photos; the bottom is...

I've rebuilt the entire AC system on my '69 factory-air Barracuda. Everything so far is testing out fine, but I'm having an issue with the blower fan. The cluster has labels for "Low ^ High", and the wiring diagram implies that the middle position is medium speed, as opposed to off. However...

I've got a '69 Barracuda notchback that originally had a white vinyl top. There are tiny bits and pieces of it (like a post-it note's worth total) but other than that I have no idea what the original center deck is. Does it actually matter in terms of fitting a new top , i.e. is there such a...

Hi everyone. I'm on that magical phase where I'm trying to pick a cam for my '69 318. Specs are as follows: -675 heads, stock (albeit with a 3-angle valve job and some other rebuild work) -block bored 40 over -stock crank and rods -KB 167 pistons yielding a calculated 8.94:1 CR -stock manifolds...

So I've got my '69 318 block back from the machine shop, and as I'm rotating it on the engine stand some bits of corrosion fall out the water jacket holes on the top of the block. Looking down in the jacket I can see some chunks of flaky rust the I can knock loose with a screwdriver, but now...

Hey guys. So, this being my first engine building venture outside of VW/Porsche world, I'm overwhelmed with piston choices (in that, there are more than two choices). I've got a stock, original 1969 318 2bbl out of my '69 Barracuda. It was very worn out and was bored 40 over at the machine shop...

Hi everyone. I'm rebuilding my factory AC and I'm putting the AC and heater boxes back together with the help of the DMT kit. As part of this, I ordered a new evaporator from Original Air (as well as the stage 1 upgrade kit with the Sanden compressor, but that won't go on till the engine is back...

Hi everyone. Over the winter I'm overhauling my '69 Barracuda notch. I'm getting ready to replace the floor pan with a whole pan from AMD. I've heard that it's important to brace the body when removing the floor pan. I've seen that some people jack up the car at various points, which I'd rather...

Hi everyone. After determining that my 69 Barracuda's 318 had more than enough wear to warrant a winter rebuild, I decided to start a new thread to get some advice on which parts to use. Coming from the Porsche world the selection is frankly pretty overwhelming...with old Porsches you have "the...

Been chasing a carb issue on my 69 Barracuda. The car is a 2bbl Carter 318 with the original engine and carb. I've been bringing it back from a long slumber since buying it in April. I've replaced the entire ignition system (plugs, wires, ballast resistor, distributor with all internals, coil)...

Hi everyone. I've got a '69 Barracuda with a 318 and factory power steering. I'm wanting to convert to the Borgeson power steering system since I'm in the middle of rebuilding my whole front suspension and my original steering box is extremely loose and leaks badly. My pump also leaks. It looks...

Hi, I'm looking for a small bolt pattern 5.5" wide wheel for my '69 Barracuda. Right now one of the wheels is 4.5" and the rest are 5.5"... Located in Nashville, TN.

Hi everyone. I've got a '69 Barracuda 318 that's been sitting for a long time. I got it yard driving yesterday, and it overheats when idling for a while after a drive, which I expected. Obviously, there are a ton of things that need to be tested and fixed on the cooling system from sitting so...

Hi everyone. I'm looking for a solid driver Mopar near Nashville. The car would be a present to my girlfriend from her father, who has tasked me with locating a car since he doesn't have time to do it himself. It would essentially be driven 15 miles a week to the Hendersonville Cruise-in and...
