    1967 Barracuda Project

    By EJS

    I had originally posted on the New Comers forum the start of this project and was suggested by one of our members to post the progress here. The back story on this Cuda, The previous owner had started this restoration aprox 15-20 years ago. Had it completely dissembled to the sheet metal body and painted and progress stopped. It sat outside in the desert climate all this time and destroyed the paint along with all the pieces parts. The owner has since passed and his wife gifted me the cuda... Read more

    Can anyone ID this muffler, and does it look ok or not?

    By 67CBodyGuy

    This is on a '67 Monaco with a 318, single exhaust. My go-to muffler shop put this on last year, the pipes were ok so he left them. The old muffler had holes. I didn't get on my hands and knees at the time to look at it when I got it back, all I knew is that the car sounded better than it did. But lately I have been under the car, and it doesn't look right. I would like to know, if it's possible (and it probably isin't) if anyone can ID this thing based on size / shape. It's 18" long...

    charging system/alt replacement

    By 71drtswnger

    I've gone through my whole charging system and still am having issues with my 1971 dodge dart with the 225. At idle on a good day it charges at 12v on the gauge but normally it sits at 10-11v on the gauge and it's causing runability issues from a stop. I am looking to clean up the mess of a charging system whether it through rebuilding it or replacing with a one wire alternator I'm not sure which would be best. I also have no clue what one wires match on to the slantys.

    Optimize the spark curve for a SlantSix.

    By timk225

    I'm tuning up the 225 in my 1973 Duster, and I feel that the distributors' centrifugal weight / advance curve could be better. I took the distributor apart last winter and fully cleaned and regreased it, but made no changes. It had the one light and one heavy spring. I bought a timing light for the first time in over 20 years, just for this car. But I cheaped out and got a basic one, not a dial back type. I'm running around 3-4 degrees initial advance of timing, but even with 93... Read more

    Gold's Garage XE268 340 cam on YT - timing

    By 1MeanA

    Did anybody see the Gold's Garage episode on the 340 with the XE268 cam? They ran into some valve spring issue causing a 'power dip'. They found torque increased as they reduced timing down to 26 degrees (12:30). Anybody got thoughts on this? I have no idea who these guys are. Apparently they have retested with Eddy heads but no video yet.

    Big block turbo sizing

    By junior636

    Just dreaming right now but I’ve considered putting twin turbos on my 512. Always wanted a turbo car. Not looking to set the world on fire just get another 200-300hp out of it. I’m not interested in hearing about block strength. What size twins would I be looking at for low boost on an engine this large? Probably just run 7lbs off the waste gate. I’ve built a few turbo set ups and then never finished them . Pics of my current 512 in the orange car and the 440 turbo I built but then... Read more

    Vendor List?

    By Ogre Backwash

    Is there a master list of vendors around here somewhere? If not, why not. I used to rely on the various Mopar magazines to inform me about who was doing business and what they were offering. Are there any Mopar magazines still in business? The hobby has changed in the last 10-15 years and obviously some businesses are gone. Frankly, I've forgotten about some of them. I know of Laysons, Legendary, and Year One. I just found a company in Michigan that makes emergency brake cables and... Read more

    67 GTS 4-Speed: Daily Summer Driver

    By carfreak6970

    Hello All, So some background: I am 25 and have been looking for a project car for almost a year now. Only expanded my search to this site for the past 6 months. I wanted to get a car that I could fix up and be a summer daily driver up here (or "down here" depending on your location). The criteria has always been shifting on what options I wanted for the car. Anything from slant 6, small block V8, Big Block to A/C and other fancy options. But I ended up settling on a 67 Dodge Dart... Read more

    Lost Ignition Key

    By equium

    My son reached out and asked if i can pick up his '70 valiant from a closing storage lot. He's 800 miles away and can't get there. Of course, he can't find the keys. I've called several local locksmiths and they wont touch something this old. Any advice would be appreciated. I'll be towing it on a flatbed. Thanks

    By wawarnick

    Does anyone know the correct fasteners to attach the 1965 barracuda Formula S emblems to the fenders? I bought reproduction emblems and of course they did not come with fasteners, I messaged the reproduction seller and nicely asked what the correct fastener would be and do they sell them but there has not been a reply in over a week. I would like to get the fasteners and get them on the car. Thank you

    Texas Members

    By Duster360LA

    A while back, Texas Red and I discussed trying to get some of the Texas FABO members together to meet snd visit face to face. We're so far away from some of the big Mopar events, many of us don't get the chance to go and meet other FABO folks. I've posted information (Mopar Events forum) about an Oct. 24 show in San Antonio that may be an opportunity for some of us to meet.
