What engine, trans and diff were you using? Tyre size?

I'm running the 383 closed chamber heads all rebuilt with some port work done. Lunati solid cam, lifters and matching springs. 1.6 roller rockers. Edelbrock Victor 440 intake and currently an 850 Holley but have an old 1050 that I want to try. Might be ok with this big thing on the street...

And all steel. :)

Thanks guys. I've been away interstate picking up a mates hotrod. 29 model a with an early hemi in it. Schweeet.

Lol, Yep they are going. Was like that when I bought it. I hate it.

Hi guys, Well I'm just about ready to start spending some more $$ on my barracuda. My aim is to get a consistent mid 10's Street and strip car, but I want to keep it period looking, with the exception of shocks and tyres. A couple of my mates have just completed drag challenge down here is...

Thanks guys, much appreciated.

Lately there have been a few aluminium wet drag car blocks for sale over here. Kb stage 6 and a couple of bae blocks, some with crank, rods and pistons. I'm just wondering if anyone has used one for a street car, is it possible? -Are they physically bigger than a 426 -Would it fit in an A...

Thanks guys, Will play around with the front and get that caster sorted.

I'm running a 185r15 on the front. I'm pretty sure that's a 26" tall tyre.

Yeah those fenderwell headers limit how much caster I can get. The tyres are just clearing at present. A smaller tyre would help, maybe use a 14" wheel on the front. The rear is a bit off as well. I will have to see what is going on there as everything is new under there. Here are the rear specs.

Hi guys, We got a new wheel alignment machine at work, it's a US built Hunter elite. It's pretty awesome, so I thought I would put my 67 barracuda up and see how it measures Up. I only string lined it up in my shed, so it was a good opportunity to check. Anyway my car has a 440 -4speed dana...

You could get them re arched. Any good spring shop can do it. Last time I checked it's about 500 .

Excellent info guys, thankyou.

Anyone??

So me and my buddy are having a few beers last night and were talking about 67-69 barracuda's and a debate came up weather they raced on circuit racing such as the T/A series back in the day and he said, go on and name one race team or racer who raced in that series.. I couldn't think of any...

Making slapper bars for my cuda next. I think we might do it in chrome moly tube.

So we finished the rear on my friends blown hemi ute. We fabricated up alot of bits and we ended up raising the rear of the car, adjusting the pinion angle, Moved the shocks, and fabricated these ladder bars. We made it so it can still articulate and not bind up when getting out of a...

Thanks guys for your input. I'm running hooker super comp fenderwell headers, so the front needed to be raised for clearance, but I can bring it down maybe an inch. I plan on running 1 set of street tyres and 1 set of semi slicks so I can still drive to the track. I'm looking at MH...

Rear pic.

Excellent feedback guys, thankyou. We have a set of corner weights on loan from a friend, so I'll get it setup on there and see our weight distribution, corner weights, overall weight etc and figure out the centre of gravity on the car. If anything, this will be interesting and handy for any...

Hi guys, I've got a 67 formula S fastback It's got a mild 440, hemi 18 spline 4 speed, strange dana s60 with 4.3 gears, 28 10.5 r15 tyres on rear (bf Goodrich), I have the front raised up just short of the droop stops. I'm just getting ready to set this thing up and wanted to hear from...
