Had to clear out shop a bit but got started at 10 on scraping undercoat, didn't eat bfast bad idea so grilled some burgers then back at it. Also got a pork loin into the smoker for my pulled pork french fries later on during draft

I'm new at this transmission rebuilding, but I finally have time to go through some 727's that I've had laying around for years. The history on this one is a B&M Transkit installed by a local "guru" more years ago than I can remember. Fluid was burned when drained. End play before disassembly...

Update: Polished the factory tach. The little round medallion in the center remained discolored. I see one would have to un-crimp the case in order to replace the rear face behind the needle (I don't have a replacement for now).

Yup, you don't have to change a daid burned thing. A 4 pin ECU works just fine in a 5 pin system (but not vice-versa, as Cuda Al said)- the extra side of the ballast just becomes redundant, it's functions have been moved internally on the 4 pin ECU. I always leave the double ballast and wiring...

I definitely will! I'll get some current interior pictures once I get all the parts out. Poor thing is a little bare right now

Well when you dig into it, make a build thread here and load it up with pics :)

For now I think we're sticking with the point ignition. I will definitely be keeping y'all updated on the progress!

Hell.. he barely preaches a sure grip :)

And he's one of us and he doesn't preach his engine swaps to something bigger.

Nice that it's a car you can buy all the parts for too! interior won't be cheap but will be awesome :) Personally i would switch to a electronic ignition but some guys love points.. you do you :)

Thank you very much!!!

Everything matches your numbers 7th digit Hamtramck MI LAST6 digits Barracuda began 5000001

Thank you!!! I have been very lucky so far. The body has very little damage (rust spots are few and far between) it needs to be fully reupholstered... All the lights work, and the engine turns easily. All in all, it's looking like an easy first project so far!

If the OP ever comes back... go to this youtube channel.. this guy has tried a lot of low buck mods and actually goes to the track to test stuff... https://www.youtube.com/@318willrun

Exactly, you get it. Yep, the OP already has a 318 and want's to keep it but just tweak it a bit to make it run better and a little more snappy without breaking the bank. And then here comes the 340/360/Magnum, Gen 3 Hemi crowd. I should just delete their BS posts. If you don't have anything...

2–Hamtramck MI last 6 digits Barracuda numbers started at500001

That is awesome... lash the valves.. fix the leaks... new points/carb rebuild and be happy :) slants are awesome.

That is AMAZING! My first car was a Volvo station wagon :lol:

I would check the wiper motor shaft to see if it slipped first. I think those have the tapered spline output shaft. If not that, then the cam that operates the park limit switch has broken or slipped out of time, or the internal limit switch has moved out of position.

Okay guys. Thank you for the input!

Yes it is, and I plan to keep it all original. It's an automatic trans! I'm so thrilled to start working on it. I have a tire coming in tomorrow and then I will get to work! Goal is to have it drivable by August!!!

Ok sounds good. Need shipped to 42001. Is PayPal good for you

gimme gimme... :) kinda what i want for my front rims.. still haven't decided though

wow that's crazy with that much lobe/lifter gone it didn't have much more bad... very nice.

I'm in the process Of redoing the 340 on the quarter panel on my duster Remove the vinyl numbers which was easy , but there is A ridge around the parameter of Where the numbers used to be.I can't get rid of it. Tried three m Adhesive. remover... I tried goofoff adhesive remover, Also tried...

Not sure who's taking it off track.... the guy asked to make a 318 run slightly better and a 408 was suggested.. that's on track for this place.

I drained the oil. No big chunks came out, so that's good...lol It honestly still ran good and revved like normal. The squeak clack sound is what got my attention.

Am I missing something, other than people saying this thread is going off track, therefore making the thread go off track, it seemed mainly on track before that lol
