    Thank you, I’ve called and spoke with them and I’m leaning that route now. I really appreciate the heads up on the quality because that is important as well.

    Header Selection (TTI or Schumacher) for 408 Stroker

    Mine is actually originally white (W1) believe it or not. Got the vin tag to prove. I can't seem to find out how rare she is but I'm refusing to make any drastic changes that would take away from it. I figure I can always go back to bone stock if needed this route. I have the original 318 but...

    Header Selection (TTI or Schumacher) for 408 Stroker

    That’s basically what I was looking for without being able to say it. 3” seemed large. The Schumacher’s are still about $125 more than the TTI’s and on back order. I was trying to get it all together for Cruisin’ the Coast the first week of October

    Header Selection (TTI or Schumacher) for 408 Stroker

    I've got a 69 Plymouth Mod Top Barracuda currently with 318 and 904 auto tranny. I bought the Tremec TKO500 tranny conversion from Silver Sports Transmissions and have decided to undergo the 408 Stroker conversion as well from BluePrint Engines (thanks to Johnny Mac) - 445HP/500TQ. TTI &...

    Anybody use this Disc Conversion Kit on an Early abody? MDC46SD

    The rear caliper is off a 79 el dorado, which is one of the worst calipers in existence. I had to sand 1/16" off each rear pad in order for the mechanical ratcheting mechanism to grab the next tooth to be close enough for the piston to push the pads into the rotor and for the brakes to work...

    Anybody use this Disc Conversion Kit on an Early abody? MDC46SD

    I have them on my 69 Barracuda right now. Do you have the 73-76 upper control arm, spindle and lower ball joint int he front? The rear requires the "green bearing" to install. I'll actually be pulling them off in the next week or so as I'm going with Wilwoods. I do not recommend them for the...

    [FOR SALE] 10" Drum Brake Spindle for 73-76 A-BODY

    Pulley Cluster F

    What is the correct water pump pulley for the small block with power steering and air? Im wondering if this BPE Water Pump Pulley - Bouchillon Performance Engineering would work still using the PS004 power steering brackets or converting to the PS007 '69 and earlier bracket with either the TRW...

    alternators burning up

    Been thru this multiple times after replacing fried voltage regulators, alternators and batteries even after running a separate ground wire from voltage regulator frame to ground terminal and radiator support for additional ground points. I had a regulator fail in the fully closed position which...

    Pulley Cluster F

    This is likely going to be a head scratcher mixed with a why but here goes and I appreciate the help beforehand. I got a 69 barracuda with a '74 or '76 318 block (sorry I can't get under the car to check the stamp at the moment and can not remember nor find the picture). With that said she has...

    ANYBODY got The Right Stuff 4 wheel disc brake conversion????

    Late follow up but I got them working: - I replaced the Master Cylinder and its not leaking anymore. Got one from NAPA. - Wound up sanding down the rear pads in order to re-position the emergency brake lever to the next hex notch on the caliper to push the piston out as soon as the cable is...

    Disc brake upgrade questions

    I mounted my stand alone valve under the driver seat close to the body lip under the car. Looks great and easy to get to if needed. Also did not have to re-bend any tubing due to it having a bend there already.

    ANYBODY got The Right Stuff 4 wheel disc brake conversion????

    I did adjust the rear calipers when I installed them but before I bled the system as they recommended so the mechanical portion (e-brake) was adjusted as they detailed in the instructions. The 1/4" of movement should be sufficient but with the 1/4" of movement I think the pads move around too...

    ANYBODY got The Right Stuff 4 wheel disc brake conversion????

    I'm going to rebuild my original master cylinder that I took off. Looks to be a Wagner Lockheed, FF-7571C. The top physically screws into the body to make a proper seal and this should take care of the leaking cheap Master Cylinder I purchased with the kit. Bore size measures to 15/16"

    ANYBODY got The Right Stuff 4 wheel disc brake conversion????

    It's just a street cruiser but wanted to do 4 wheel disc for appearance factor and going to be doing a motor and tranny swap (likely 408 stroker) and wanted to make sure i had the stopping power if need be. Plus people where I live drive like A-Holes.

    ANYBODY got The Right Stuff 4 wheel disc brake conversion????

    The last thing I want to do is give anybody or company a bad rap, but I'm just fed up with them. Just looking to see if anybody else has these and if they had any issues with them and if so what tricks can you share.

    73 Disk Brake Conversion Bleeder Valve Question

    Looks like they are mounted on the wrong side of the axle according the RH & LH marking on each caliper.

    ANYBODY got The Right Stuff 4 wheel disc brake conversion????

    http://getdiscbrakes.com/drop/Instructions/MDCRD01.pdf Check out page 14 for bleeder screw orientation. Calipers came labeled as to side from factory. Yes also bench bled the master. Also used a bleeder forcing over a quart of brake fluid thru the master cylinder thru all 4 calipers.

    ANYBODY got The Right Stuff 4 wheel disc brake conversion????

    I have a 69 barracuda with this setup on it. I did get the emergency brake option on the rears. Anybody else have this setup and what do you think? I've had nothing but trouble with this kit and to the point of ripping them off the car. I've been fighting them for 2 years now. See list below of...

    69 Barracuda Dash removal

    I just replaced my dash harness in a 69 notchback Cuda. I thought about removing the dash but opted out. I was able to do everything with it in the car including painting it. It was quite a task but do-able. I also have an under dash a/c mounted on the passenger side firewall.
