Since no one else has said it yet, I'd run the 408 and sell the 354 to me. ;)

I've heard of them (quite a few years ago) but never used one myself so I can't comment. The guy who installed your trans/conv probably didn't seat the conv properly and/or didn't torque the flex plate/conv bolts correctly. The stall may change based on your components and the range may also...

Sure thing.

I made a quick call to Isky but the tech said another guy just called to get the specs. ;). Sounds like you have your info now. GL.

Ditto to all the above.

I don't believe that they ever came on any mass-produced factory setup. Cal Custom (which based out of SoCal) has been making aftermarket parts since the 60's. I don't know if the original company is still in business but I know that someone is still mnfrg their parts to this day. Many of them...

Congratulations! That has lots of potential. As for the deal, it's hard to tell without knowing the price (which you don't have to share). It looks like it has been run down the strip a few times. What's the scoop with the 440? Was it factored into the price that the engine is non-running...

It sounds like a motor plate and a Dakota rack will address those issues.

bmxican, I do not want to rain on your parade at all because you are undertaking quite a large project as a student. My one suggestion is to not take your car out of commission until you figure out what you need and have all the conversion pieces (ie. engine, trans, driveshaft, rearend/rear...

It looks like you are running a '69 340 in your '65 Barracuda. I agree with the above. If you definitely want a stock 4-bl manifold, go with a '68'-69 version. If you were considering the '71 just because it popped up and you are open to an aftermarket, consider one that works with your motor...

I hear you. Even though I have flown back to the Nats and C@C (Chryslers @ Carlisle - I still can't get use to the new ACN name), I have always wanted to drive back to both just once.

Redfish, is your name Ben as well? Mully, for a minute, I thought you might be referring to me (even though you quoted Red's post). If that was the case, I was going to suggest that I pull the Barracuda out and we could zip up and down the street together. ;) BTW: Save up for gas money...

Right on Terry! I haven't had a stereo in the '69 Barracuda for almost 10 years. Although, at one time, I did have a monstrous system in there ... backseat replaced by a speaker board, 19 Hart & Cerwin-Vega speakers. Nakamichi head unit, 4 amps (Nakamichi & Carver), AudioCross electronic...

As Moper was saying, if you are not going with the higher end Jesel, Milodon is the way to go. I have three of their SB setups. One interesting change I noticed (between one of my original setups from the mid-80s and one of their new ones) was that there were some slight mods to the mounting...

For the most part they do rob HP and are only really needed at a specific level of performance/rpm. Most of us that run them on the street and on street/strip cars know that we are basically running them for the cool factor and defending their use is just an attempt to justify it. When I...

After realizing that I would never use mine, I sold it last year for $450. This was a new never-installed piece with new mounts.

cats, I just PM'd you USMC's address over there. Thanks for also sending some reading material his way.

I am going to be sending USMC1968 a stash of car magazines for him and his buddies to read (along with some home-made chocolate chip cookies if they allow it). Would anyone else be interested in sending over mags that they are finished reading so these guys have something to look at until they...

USMC, I don't have the answer to your question but wanted to thank you for the work you are doing over there. Just a few days ago, I was looking at all my car magazines and was wondering if there were any car nuts over there that might be interested in them. If you or anyone you know might...
