    Where to start looking....

    67Dart273, very possible about the Tender gone bad. I fully charged the battery (13.5V), and before I connected the positive battery cable took one last look at the terminal ends. Seems the positive end has a small crack in it, so I replaced it. Per your instructions above, I connected positive...

    Where to start looking....

    @ Inertia, I cleaned both battery posts, and corresponding cable ends 2 weeks ago, and they are still clean (see 1st post). Battery took a charge, took it to local parts chain, and had it load tested. It checked out good. I removed the Battery Tender terminal from positive cable end, and...

    Where to start looking....

    Sorry guys, I forgot to mention that the car also has a MP electronic conversion kit installed on it as well. @ Bad Sport, I've got a regular (10A) charger on the battery now, w/o the battery cables. We'll see what ensues when I get it fully charged. I think you are correct, in part, about a...

    Where to start looking....

    68gtxman, Thanks for the quick replay! V @ battery is 13.5 (initial flash of 13.5 when probes contact posts), then immediately jumps down to 7.90 V! I though that was weird! I'm starting to think my Battery Tender is the culprit. Before this post, I had cleaned up the grounding strap locations...

    Where to start looking....

    The essentials: 1967 Barracuda FB, 273, floor shift A/T, Factory AC. Electric fuel pump, w/relay, & Battery Tender, are installed at the battery. The story: Every week, regardless of weather, I start, and let warm up my car. Gives me a chance to spend some quality time in the garage, with a...

    'Cuda alternator questions

    IIRC, the police alternator was rated at 75 amps. Hopefully someone can confirm this?

    67 barracuda tail lite question.

    If I'm not mistaken, 1157 is the only bulb that should be used. Just my opinion.

    battery cut off

    Thought i saw somewhere that Flaming River had a disconnect type switch, that had some type of "memory" on it (battery?). Maybe someone else could confirm/deny?

    T/S lens application

    LOL... I've seen a couple of members on here that have painted those two areas with flat black, and that seems to blend in pretty well. I just thought of a different way to utilize that area of the valance. Besides, my valance isn't in the best of shape. Cudamark, your most likely correct about...

    T/S lens application

    O.K., so this is what I had in mind. The contour of the T/S lens is almost a perfect match to the contour of the lower valance. The valance will require some modification though, since the lens is taller than the sheet metal there. Also, the metal has a slight angle that would point the T/S...

    T/S lens application

    Thanks Oklacarcollecto! I'm going to head out to the garage on Saturday, and tape it into place to see how it would fit. If it looks o.k. to me, I'll post it here to see what you all think. Cudamark, if the lens looks like it will fit, I'll definetly get back with you on the housing/assembly...

    T/S lens application

    Oklacarcolleto, you and Cudamark have helped out ENORMOUSLY!! Can't thank you guys enough! Wishing you some pain free days ahead. I had an idea of installing some type of T/S, on the lower valance of my Barracuda (in each corner, where the sheet metal kinda matches the contour of the T/S lens...

    Wiper Motor Hell

    Don't know how well this will turn out, but I hope it helps. Pic is from my 9/25/66 Service bulletin for the '67 Barracuda's. According to the brochure I have, the 2 speed wiper system was standard and the variable speed was an option.

    What kind of battery?

    I've always bought mine from Sears. Also been using a Battery Tender for the last 2 years. Helps when you only drive it occasionally.

    no power

    The fact that you have an 800 cfm carb, on what sounds like a mild 318, seems a bit too much to me. Just my opinion though, doesn't mean a thing. Can you tell us more about the engine, or did you just add the cam?
