    Dash & dome light question

    I have been tweaking the last bugs on my 67 Barracuda. I am left with non working dash and dome lights. I have checked power to all my glass fuses and they all are good and power both ends. The relevant fuse is the Inst. fuse which with ignition on and headlight switch dimmer full left gives...

    How to??

    I have researched the timing curve thing on this thread and have been running my motor no load for a couple days. 273 Hi-po pretty standard stuff. Lunati hydraulic cam a little bigger than the stock 235 hp cam but not much. It seems to like 15 deg initial or a little more but I have a stock 2V...

    Grounding question

    I forgot where the negative battery cable terminates on my 1967 Barracuda. I am also interested in input on where the engine block ground cable terminates. I am building a custom ground cable that will have a 12GA whip that ties into my grounding bar system where I am running all the grounds on...

    OK, someone explain it to me--------

    I am at the stage wiring my engine bay with the MAD ampmeter bypass that it is time to put the fusable links to the starter relay. The MAD document calls for a 14GA link from the alternator to the starter relay and a 16GA link from the starter relay to the dual wires running through the drilled...

    Mad with external regulator?

    I am ready to start the engine bay wiring and have already done the MAD conversion in the dash with the correct wires coming through the bulkhead connector. I am going to use a maxi-fuse instead of a fusible link. I am considering keeping the stock alternator and external regular, just curious...

    Heater fan motor

    Got my heater reinstalled today and the motor has 2 wires. One with a female spade connector which I should have no trouble finding a home for. The other wire is a long brown one with two ring connectors about 3' apart. Anyone know where these terminate? Thanks! O:)

    Accessory power?

    I have searched but cannot find a difinitive answer. I need to add switched 12V power for my Tach and need to know the best place to connect my voltage meter conversion. My fuse block is in good shape and has an empty hole with no fittings in it. Thinking about adding a small spade type fuse...

    Pertronix---

    Today I installed an Ignitor kit in my Comet that I have had a couple years and just got around to. Test drove the car and came in and ordered another one for my Barracuda. Hope is goes as well as the Comet install did. I did notice the instructions with my Ford kit dealt with a resistor if one...

    Silly Timing ???????

    Well it was a battle, but the 67 Notch is back together & running well. The book says to set the timing on the 273 2V @ 10 deg BTDC. My question is do I set it with the vacume advance line to the distrubutor connected or disconnected? I tried it both ways and it is now set @ 10 BTDC with the...

    Radio ???????

    :?: Have any of you guys used a radio rebuilder to update the stock radio to new specs. The radio for my Comet is AM only and there is no aftermarket unit that will fit without cutting the dash. I am thinking of sending the original unit to a rebuilder to get made into an AM/FM stereo so it will...
