You should be able to just use the different coil with no changes. Alan

You are going to get some long winded responses. The ignition and charging are not (directly) related. You can put a 4-pin module one a 5-pin system (dual ballast) You cannot put a 5-pin module on a 4-pin system (single ballast) Alan

For the most part this brings me up to current, this weekend I'll start on the disassembly to pull the engine. Once the engine (and everything else) is removed I'm going to have the engine compartment repainted. As I'm putting a new k-member in the install will be bottoms up. Alan

No, you never know when you may need a spare. It is hard to say when or if these will ever be reproduced. I saw this coming from over four cars, I thought it was coming through the glass. Not little gravel, just glad it didn't hit paint. Alan

Once again back to the engine. By now I have all the parts back from the machine shop and have acquired everything else that I should need. Overall the build went smooth. It is for the most part a stock build, not going to cover in detail. First up was to clean all the oil passages with long...

On the way home from Oregon the car got hit with a pretty good size rock, I have a new windshield, still need to have it installed. Northern California, Avenue of the Giants Alan

Back in Oregon on its second trip. Alan

I've had the car at a few Cars and Coffee, this was the first one my friend had his 68 there. The 68 is a 340 4-speed survivor, original paint, original interior (original engine in storage). Alan

Next up was the Mopar Alley show in Cupertino. I met up with Max there with his fastback. At the show was a very nice (rare) 67 383 GTS convertible. Alan

On the way home from Oregon on another trip i stopped by Accurate and picked up a complete exhaust system (the two larger boxes are for a friends C-Body). Further south I stopped at the friends place and picked up the free transmission. Alan

Back to the engine. One thing I knew would be difficult and expensive to locate was the left side exhaust heat shield. In my regular daily eBay searching a listing popped up for one, once I gave it a quick lookover to confirm it was a 340 piece I hit the $35 Buy-it-now (plus $85 shipping), in a...

Fall Fling (2022) was the first show for me, while over in the swap a friend asked if I saw the other 67 vert, I said I saw a white one drive in. Returning to the car I saw a nice copper one. Elsewhere I caught up with the white one. Alan

One of the top latches broke shortly after getting the car. Just a cosmetic element. Replacing it was not easy, limited access. Alan

The wheel covers are the same Bolt-on style as the fastback so I had a small inventory of them along with the ones from the car. Most of them the argent had faded so I felt now was a good time to freshen up a set. Very time consuming. Alan

A couple years ago I purchased this car from Max Heim ( @mvh ) Not even four week later I'm on the road to Oregon with the car, overall the car performed good, a little anemic on the hills. This car draws far more attention than my fastback, lots of waves and thumbs up, you can't get gas...

If you are using the schematic downloaded from MyMopar it is NOT factory and is known to have errors. The best ones are those in the Factory Service Manual, the schematics for the Barracuda are in the Factory Service Manual Bulletin/Supplement. Alan

Ok, the block below the headlight switch is the fuse block? A yellow wire on the dash is either part of the dome light circuit or the starter wire (maybe others). Any ground wires (very very few) are typically black with a ring terminal and screwed to sheet metal. The fuse block has a couple...

NOS Hood Latch (67 Barracuda) Alan

The hood safety catch was black phosphate, loop was body color, the spring was also phosphate the latch was something else. Alan

The problem is who has more than one New/NOS 340 heat shield. Nobody is going to let their only one go at any cost. Alan

Cuda Al was a nickname a coworker gave me about the beginning of the internet. I have never gone by Al, still don't. Alan

I will be there with the Fastback, look for the twins. Alan

In large both the 273 and 318 look the same and most everything for a 273 works on a 318 and inversely. About the only thing different are the pistons themself. I'd stay with the 318 Alan

Here you go. Alan

Interesting, I could find no other reference to that. Did find multiple references to a truck ban. https://www.motorcyclistonline.com/news/road-safety-big-rig-trucks-banned-tail-dragon/ Alan

Have you ever driven a car with vintage shoulder belts (pre retractor)? You are pinned to your seat and can't even adjust the radio. Alan
