    door hinge rollers

    I did a little digging in the forums and haven't found any conclusive information so I'm hoping a fresh inquiry might lead to an answer. I've got a 65 Barracuda with a broken hinge roller (detent door hinges); the rest of the door hinge is in great condition. The driver side is always a...

    Stalling when neutral and driving

    Finally got around to working on it. The initial problem was the points and condenser. Should have been my first guess. Since replacing them, I've been trying to redial the carburetors fuel and air mixture. It still stalls occasionally, but not nearly as often as before. Now I'm getting...

    Stalling when neutral and driving

    Hi All, With the recent change in seasons, I've noticed the barracuda has taken up a habit of stalling after warming up when in park/neutral and occasionally when driving (50-60mph). I did a bit of searching from older posts and most responses seemed to be timing. However, I just recently...

    Reliable Car Cover

    Thanks for the responses. Thinking I'll go with the Noah cover from calcar. I was hoping to find something that will hold up in snow and ice as well, but hopefully that has all passed. This weather has been absolutely bizarre.

    Reliable Car Cover

    Wondering if anyone out there has a recommendation for a reliable car cover for A-Body Barracudas? I bought one recently as I no longer have access to a garage, but after the last winter storm, tore it to shreds trying to get it off the car. It would be nice to find one that is tailored...

    Holley 8007 (390cfm) Problems

    Not a lot of progress today. Soaking in carb cleaner and removing deposits carefully with a wire brush. Will update when carb is back together. Thanks again to Abodybomber and sireland67.

    Holley 8007 (390cfm) Problems

    No back firing per say, but I did have a load of fuel rocket out from the vent holes once. Plugs were dry, but had been sitting overnight since first pull. Did smell gassy though. Did not do a second pull after cleaning , reinstalling and cranking as I had to leave.

    Holley 8007 (390cfm) Problems

    Abodybomber, set the float via sight window to just a trickle of gas coming out. Although, when loosening the top screw to turn the float needle gas is pouring out (this may be normal, though I doubt it). I put a new fuel filter on. Again filter fills up completely. No debris pulling into...

    Holley 8007 (390cfm) Problems

    After searching the forums, I still wanted to posted this up as I haven't quite found the answer. A couple days ago I drove the barracuda to a friends house, no problems. Started up, ran smooth. I had to fix the turn signal relay as the previous one had burned out. I replaced it with the exact...

    [FOR SALE] miscellaneous slant parts

    Thanks for the tip pishta. The full diameter from end to end looks to be 14 inches but from clip to clip on the back it's 13. So my guess is 13 inches. They came with my car but not on the car. I have 14 inch rally wheels so they didn't fit. Not sure what a more appropriate price I should be...

    Another no fuel mystery

    Long story short, went out of state for two weeks leaving the barracuda to sit. Came back and she wont start. I can clearly see that there is no gas running into the filter when I press the accelerator pedal. Everything was running fine prior to my departure. I live Virginia so I can't...

    Pertronix out...points in...bummer

    I had two fail on me within 6 months of each other. Coincidentally, it was every time it rained. Had everything wired up properly, so I'm 90% sure it was moisture in my distributor from the rain. Bought a new set of points, put them in and haven't had any trouble since.

    Stock Intake with Clifford Headers

    Jegs sells a exhaust wrap. Wrapping parts of the header to control the excess heat it gives off should solve that problem right? Though I suppose the more proper setup would be using the water heater/cooler that Raso sells. This is the link...

    Stock Intake with Clifford Headers

    Does anyone have an answer for this? I'd really appreciate it. I've done a number of searches but haven't found anything. I suppose I could mount the arm and spring on the cylinder head near the original location but if there's a better solution out there, I'd love to know. I also came...

    How much does a Slant 6 engine weigh?

    From a post by Slantsixdan in another thread: A cast iron RG (198/225) block weighs 134 pounds (plus or minus; this varied by production variant/date) A cast iron LG (170) block weighs 114 pounds An aluminum RG block weighs 64 pounds.

    Stock Intake with Clifford Headers

    Thanks for the help. Will the manual or automatic choke solve the throttle spring problem too? Without the spring, there wont be any tension on the throttle to close it when I take my foot off the pedal.

    Stock Intake with Clifford Headers

    I just recently purchased a set of clifford shorty headers for my slant and realized that once bolted up, the original choke/throttle spring linkage wont be able to be mounted. It's an otherwise stock 225. Holley single barrel carb. Cast Iron Intake. As I'm sure many of you know, the...

    Searching for Clifford headers

    To all fellow members of the FABO "army", I'm reaching out to all of you in hopes that someone has a set of clifford headers (or something similar) fit for a 225 /6 in a 65 Barracuda. Condition is not an issue to the extent that they don't require repair. Thank you in advance...
