I would assume that any of the factory issued pumps will work with it. I used a reduced pressure Saginaw pump for a better feel. As far as the lines go you just need adapters on the box as it has metric threads. Peter at Bergman Auto Craft carries all the bits you need.

I have the Borgeson box in my 66 with Doug's headers and a standard trans, no fitment issues at all. I used an adapter from Bergman for the shaft. It was a direct bolt in, snug but that's the way things are in the early Abodys.

No problem Yes, I think you have an early B body idler arm there.

Here you go. What I did was mount the studs in the k frame and in the drag link then slid the idler arm and bushings onto the studs then installed lock nuts to just enable a bit of drag.

I just put one on my 66 a couple of weeks ago. I will grab you a picture tomorrow.

Here is the weight of a 66 Cuda, lots of lightweight stuff and additional lightened parts and pieces. As you can see pretty nose heavy even with the big back window.

How about one for an early a body???? Very nice work.

Yes they were an inch lower than stock when new, they have sagged at least another half inch inch since then. They drive fine and through the curves work well.

Here's mine with Hotchkis springs and 17" wheels

I agree with this 100%, I run the Mopar 1.14 bars, the 1 1/8 Helwig tubular front bar and the tubular Hotchkis rear bar and the Hotchkis/Fox shocks set on firm, Hotchkis rear springs with 245/45/17 tires and the ride is just fine in a 3196lb early a body. Its all about component matching.

Thanks. No I didn't have a cooler on it, had the pump shimmed down to about 650psi that might not have helped either.

I attended the Spring Fling Festival of Speed this past April at Willow Springs and had an issue with my steering pump. My type 1 pump that was maybe a couple of years old blew the top of the tank off. I think this was due to excess heat and the fluid expanded and with the cap not vented built...

Yes two reasons, its bigger and lighter a lot lighter.

I have the Helwig bar on my car, easy installation. I had a Firm Feel solid bar in before and ended up using their frame mounts on the Helwig bar, works great and very light.

That looks like a great time, thanks for the video. We might take you up on that, just now planning to go to Vegas again this year but that video might change the plans a bit. I am waiting for my direct fit 5 speed to get here before I do anything with this car. Sorry zanfull didn't mean to...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=63dAEd7BPic Here is my 66 cuda from last year, it has all the hotchkis stuff but 14" BFGs on the front and 15" BFGs on the rear, as you can see it was really tight. My advice is get a good set of low profile sticky tires and don't...

I purchased the Cap Auto upper and lower control arms and strut rods and looked at the welds and would never use them or sell them for that matter because of the poor quality welds. I did not like the thought of the aluminum strut rods after looking at them, looked a little light duty for my...

I purchased the Cap Auto upper and lower control arms and the adjustable strut rods and must say they were the worst after market parts I have ever bought in my 30 years of building cars. The welds are the worst I have ever seen and I look at welds every day, the upper control arms are different...

Well I didnt say I would beat one but I would not be afraid to give it a try, just something about the guys that drive them! The point being that with the aftermarket parts that are out there now you can vastly improve the handling of a 40 year old Mopar.

It has aluminum heads and intake as you would expect, aluminum seat brackets, aluminum rear caliper brackets, aluminum front calipers, lightened bumper brackets, aluminum rad, lightened pedals, parts of the rear seat back and storage area cut out but still carpeted and a few more things. The...

I have had a 66 Cuda for 24 years and have done many suspension mods. It currently has a Firm Feel box with a reduced pressure pump, Firm Feel upper control arms, boxed lowers, Hellwig hollow 1 1/4" front sway bar, MP 1.14 torsion bars, Hotchkis strut rods, frame connectors, Hotchkis hollow...
