I guess I just expected better mileage with our reg fuel at $5.30/gal. I get range anxiety with only 150 miles per tank. Does a Barracuda only have a 10 gallon tank? Went to a interprovincial car show with over 500 cars, Lots of Mopar, My 67 notch was only 1 of 2 there. Nice to have something a...

Funny that you replied today. I just returned yesterday from a 660 mile road trip, temp was between 80-85 degrees with mild humidity, double lane hiway so speed varied between 70 - 75mph, 3200 RPM. Car ran excellent and the temp was consistent. It was fine on the around town cruzing as well but...

Really,really nice to do with the help of a lift and a GM dolly. With getting the headers to fit it was in and out 3 times.

What starter are you using?

Thanks for the link. Wish I had seen it before I welded it up. Looks like I am committed now.

They still touch the torsion bar. The 67 K member is a little different.

I would be happy to share my challenges and remedies with you. I have lots of pictures and information that will help you out with your project. Yes I know Brian at RPM. Send me a pm and we can exchange emails. Jason

I am just finishing up my 383 into a 67 barracuda. I would strongly suggest that you do not use the headman headers. Spend $1000 on the correct ones and you’ll be far ahead in the end . Plan on the Lokar kick down and might as well use their throttle cable as well. Everyone here says this is...

Just about got it all together and I don’t anticipate any cooling problems with this bad boy . Time will tell pretty soon.

Thanks Trailbeast. I ordered this sweet little unit today for my 383 $163 Can. It is for the 1995 and older trucks. Appears to have the + post offset for block clearance. Will let you know if it works when I do my mock-up.

Hoping to start the 383 swap later this month.Using the B body headers and the Schumacher mounts, with auto trans. What are the options for the starter? Dakota, Mopar mini?I see 440 source has one available. Trying to keep the costs down$$$. The car has a 6cyl with the factory floor shifter...

So you mark it off,remove the column and then cut the collar? How close to the firewall do you go?

Hi, are there some photos on this site showing the process of cutting down the steering column? I am using the headman headers on a 383 with the Borgeson steering joint. What do you recommend for a starter? Thanks Jason

Thanks, That's what I was thinking. Would it be easier to enlarge the universal joint? Did you end up welding it on or pin it? My car was a factory 6cyl, Do I need a V-8 steering link? Thanks for your help.

Thanks, That what I was wondering. I was test fitting it on a 65 shaft. Have you used this joint before?

Sorry, This is happening in a 67 Barracuda.

I am gathering together my parts for my 383 conversion. I have the headman headers and have purchased this steering universal joint . It is the Borgeson .75 x 36 spline by .75 smooth bore. I did a quick test fit on a 65 steering shaft and it seems like the smoth bore will be a little small...

This is for a 67 Barracuda. Currently a 6cyl. Using the Schumacher mounts and manual steering. Thanks

Gathering the parts to swap in the 383 this winter. Plan on using the Headman B Body Headers. I am going to shorten the steering column tube and I am researching which steering universal joint to use. The price varies from the beautiful Flaming River @ $237.00 The Borgeson,$80 - $130 or the...

Thanks for the heads up on that. What about the mini starters and the McRobb performance unit.

I am currently gathering parts to do the 383 swap into this 67. I am going to try the headman headers after cutting back the steering column and changing to a flaming river universal steering joint. I am using the Schumacher six-cylinder crossmember mounts. I may start a build thread to share...

So to clarify,can you use the B body headers with a 383 on a 67 A body with manual steering and a small hammer?

TTI headers say to use a break in set as their coating is rated at 1200 degrees. $1000. headers? Dyno break in maybe?
