I'm really glad I found this thread. I'm trying to install a Holley Sniper EFI on my 69 Barracuda currently. Not having much luck. My gas tank got a leak, so I installed a new gas tank with a Holley EFI Pump in it, ran new fuel lines (fuel and return) as well as power up front and have been...

Gotta keep in mind that in Chico is a University of California campus. I'm sure that the law was because an aspiring student built, or was thinking about building a nuclear reactor in his dorm room or fraternity house. Silly college students!

I've had this car listed at a 300zx forum for a few months, but no bites. I need to either sell it oin the very near future, or it will be taken to a local auto recycler. Here in California, there are laws about how long these cars can be availalbe at the recycler, but I need it off my...

Trying to turbo an NA 300zx is hard - especially one from the 90's. Not only do you have to deal with twin turbo's, and fitting them in under the hood, but you need to find a computer that is programmed for a turbo engine for a similar year - and sometimes the exact year you are working on. I...

Or one of these old trucks: http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/cto/4539182849.html Very unique, dry vehicle that would make a great restoration project for someone! No engine. Call with any questions or interest. Get one of these - put in a Cummins engine - get a car trailer and join...

How about these old Dodge Trucks: http://fargo.craigslist.org/cto/4497458543.html this is a 68 dodge truck with a good Harsh rigid lift 2 stage hoist and good 9.00 20 tires. I think the engine is a 360 from a 1977 Chrysler Cordoba. Engine condition is not known, haven't started since 2003...

I totally agree that electric cars are not "green" - it takes a lot of fossil fuels to make them, ship them, etc. that there is nothing green about them. Wind turbines that we have here in California in the Altamont Pass take so much fossil fuels to get them there and installed, it will take to...

I was thinking that with all the research that Chrysler put into turbines in the 1960's and almost putting them in cars on the show room floors, why do they not grab that research off the shelf and put turbines in their small cars and compete in the electric car market? I know that there are...

I have a set of Slant Six torsion bars that I'm not using any longer. I upgraded from a slant six 225 to a V8 318 and a couple of years later upgraded my front suspension. At that time I swapped in some bigger torsion bars. I have the slant six torsion bars available for sale. $50 for the...

Ok - thanks for you input. I'll check out the Sansa model's. Any other thoughts on the subject?

What is the easiest MP3 player that you've used? My boys are in their High School Marching Band, and I'm looking to buy some music and load it onto a MP3 player to leave at the Bingo Hall where the Performing Arts Booster's run a Bingo session - our only fund raiser. I'll rip the music and...

Short answer is yes. I put a set on a stock 318 several years after I rebuilt it, and the increase in power across the entire RPM band was very noticable! I didn't think there would be that big of a difference on a stock engine, but I was nicely surprised.

Just curious, and maybe I missed it in a previous post, but which LED replacement bulbs are you using and where did you get them? I've looked at these for a while, but havent done anything with them yet: http://www.superbrightleds.com/moreinfo/ba9s-ba7s/ba9s-led-bulb-6-led-360-degree/8/...

I had the same issue when I had a bearing race go bad on me - all I was getting was the drum. Found out what Oklacarcollecto said - the drums are seperate from the center part. At that point I just upgraded to front disc brakes with the larger bolt pattern because I couldn't find the center...

Ive taken to getting a bolt into one or two of the holes on the pulley - has to be a hardened steel bolt and along with the fan belt you can get it loose. The bolts catch on some of the strengthening ribs that go out from the middle. It takes quite a bit sometimes though...

Love the show! The movie is definately different than the TV show, but both are great. I saw a TV Land special once where they talked with the producers of the TV Show and the TV Show actors, and the producers said they thought the movie was great and it would transfer to TV well, but the...

I had something similar happen to me when the plastic gear at the bottom of my distributor wore out. Was cranking the motor trying to re-start it and the gear caught enough to turn - must have sent a spark out to a cylinder that had the exhaust port open - with all that vaporized gas in it and...

Some I've seen before, but not all of them: WOMAN'S PERFECT BREAKFAST She's sitting at the table with her gourmet coffee. Her son is on the cover of the Wheaties box. Her daughter is on the cover of Business Week. Her boyfriend is on the cover of Playgirl...

My wife is a identical twin - twins run in her family and we had identical twin boys. The boys are now Freshmen in High School. My grandmother was a fraternal twin - her twin was a boy. They are both dead now for a few years. My wife is very close to her twin sister as are our boys.

Hadn't seen this before - thought I'd share! $5.37! That's what the kid behind the counter at Taco Bell said to me. I dug into my pocket and pulled out some lint and two dimes and something that used to be a Jolly Rancher. Having already handed the kid a five-spot, I started to head...

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that when I last ordered my last kit, I ordered what I needed for my model year car - except for the larger upper ball joint that is needed for the upper control arm that came off your donor car = the 75 dart.

I think that's California specific. Had a parts counter guy say that in California you have to have a Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) license to read the codes.

Question on this same thread - is there a big difference between the Keg Style intake and a two plane intake on the magnum engines? Thinking about putting a 318 or 360 motor, ecu, injector's in my Barracuda along with a overdrive tranny - either a 518 or 46RE. Thought about doing the same...

BobbyY has it right here. If you hook up both radio's to the same speaker, only one radio can be on at the same time - otherwise you risk the possibility of burning out one of the outputs on either radio - whichever radio has the strongest components. Could be the one with the oldest parts or...

Unfortunately I don't know. I bought them from a friend of a guy that used to live down the street from me. The friend used to drag race Mopars and switched to Chevy's because parts were cheaper. I got them cheap because they were just taking up space in the guy's backyard, but they don't...

While I agree with everything that 67cudafb said - almost. The headers that I put on my 318 really woke it up! I have the same intake manifold and probably the same carb - I might have the next size bigger, but I noticed a big difference in power when I put my headers on. They are a pain to...

Oh - I forgot to add a picture of the owl! Here you go!

Hello All, I've recently discovered that an owl has made it's nest in my attic! According to someone we know who knows more about owl's than me says it's a Western Screech Owl. I thought it would be a great idea to put up a web cam to watch this momma hatch her eggs, but it's something I've...

A quick Google search came up with a translation engine: I post this message because I noticed a light game with my lever gear shift at the wheel (limps manual 3 speeds) in high position (Reverse running and 2nd).\n\nThis game is especially awkward in Reverse running because speed is engaged...

I put a oil filter relocation kit on the 318 in my Barracuda, and it leaks with the small gasket that came with the kit. I'm hoping to take the adapter off the block and put a larger gasket on it - taking one off the top of an oil filter - and seeing if that helps. It's only a small leak so...
