Check your plugs. Mine was hesitating and back firing. My rotor to cap contact was shot and all of my plugs fowled out.

If you convert the engine over to carbed I'd be interested in the fuel injection system.

Dougs for me, but that's on my early A. What I wouldn't give for some nice short block huggers on that car.

Anyone know how long the stick portion should be? not the tube, but the stick? I have a feeling mine is off. I put 5 quarts in my 360 with the car oil pan and it was barely touching the tip of the stick.

Well if it's firing related that's 73-100Hz. If it's unbalance related that's 18-25 Hz, which would shake the crap out of the car. Is your damper getting hot to the touch on the outer diameter of it? Like can you cool it down some and then run it for a few minutes and see if it's drastically...

I'd also suggest a dab of super glue on the ends. When I do crankshaft torisonal measurements with laser optical tape on dampers I use a small dab of normal super glue after cleaning on the ends of the tape. I've never had one fly off when done that way. It is possible that the lacquer...

Make sure they have your Crank damper with the counterweight and your weighted flex plate/flywheel if you are staying external balance. Now would be a good time to upgrade to a new damper. If you plan on drag racing an SFI 18.1 Spec certified one would be the ticket.

Running Doug's on my 64. Make sure you go mini starter and right angle filter adapter for ease of use. Didn't have to remove my torsion bar either.

I'm pretty sure mine rubs there too. I've seen that dent on my current pan. What number is stamped into your pan? (64 Barracuda with a 360 in it)

I've been able to wedge a small mechanics prybar in the ring gear teeth where the starter goes into the bell and that worked once I had it seated. It took a few tries though. I too have heard of the rope trick, haven't tried it though.

Why not use a ring gear holding tool? It's NEVER a good idea to hit a damper with a hammer, rubber or otherwise. And pulling the damper on with a bolt is risky. I'd rent a proper install tool so you use all of the threads to pull it on. (I design performance dampers for a living)

Sounds like a good setup to me. I'm hoping to get the explorer rear axle parts and do that swap over the winter. I picked the car up at the end of September and never had a chance to drive it. So for now I just want to have some fun with it. It already has a sure grip so I figure it will be...

I will look into that seal when I have the pan down. Thanks for the information! I'd rather fix it the right way the first time.

Thanks a lot guys! I've worked with the right stuff before on a sliding ragtop and it worked great with no leaks. I should get a can of it, need to do the transmission pan. Hoping to get at least the filter adapter on and sealed up well tonight. Maybe even the kickdown linkage for the trans...

I'm working on getting my 64 Barracuda ready for the driving season and there are a few things I'm looking for advice on. 1. How to get my right angle filter adapter to seal property. This is my 3rd Seal kit, it is the aluminum adapter set that a member on here graciously sent to me. I did...
