I am in search of my first car that I ever owned. I thought I wanted a rustang but ended up with a Barracuda.
I had it her fourteen years and would love to know where she is and how shes doing. her vin is BH29F9B134198
I used seats from a 96 stratus. I am going to try painting them with upholstery/carpet paint. I cut out the raised humps on the sides where a bench seat is supposed to mount and welded a flat patch. Also made new mounting holes so did not need to fab any kind of bracket.
how can you determine the exact year on a 360 engine? the casting # 3418496 is for 71 thru 74 360. but each year is a different compression, hp etc. 71 is 8.7/1 72 is 8.8/1 73 and 74 are 8.4/1 is there any way to determine which year it is?
Thanks everyone for your help! Now that I have officially embarrassed myself I take back all the things I said (in my head) about the member who sold me these axles. so bright side is I get more practice setting backlash!
now you made me go out to the shop and tear my CC down only to find out I was wrong! 1.488 DOH! I must have had a senior moment. I need to keep better notes!
axles inserted fully into housing, shouldn't this spacing be close to .500?
also did not have backing plates in place so add another .250
sure grip w/741 casting
measured axle from inside flange, thought this was supposed to be a little over 28"?
I'm looking for someone nearby who can swap for the 4speed, but maybe I could sell the tranny and buy yours if the prices match up some what . any idea what cost (total) to ship to PA?
looking to find a 8 3/4" housing and axles.
don't need the center-section,
housing for A-body stock hanger width
axles for 4" bolt pattern only
would like to swap for an A833 4speed in good cond
Thanks George for that info, funny thing, just sitting here chatting with the group helped me realize something; I was trying to navigate using the menu bars (limited)
search box is where it's at!
MOPARS RULE!
First of all, your cover pic ROCKS!
your post just reminded me of the hours I spent tracking down parts for my cub cadet kohler engine, so I have to take back anything bad I said about FABO!
