The 72 Demon Follies....
By Demonx2
Thought I'd start a thread to share some of the ups and downs as I've "restarted" my little drag racing hobby with my 72 Demon. I bought this car as a roller in the fall of 2019 "sight unseen" out of Texas. It had been a drag car all of its life but had weathered quite well sheltered from the ravages of our northern climates (I'm near Detroit). I got it with the intentions of dropping a motor in it and going racing. Well...that didn't quite turn out to be what happened. After getting... Read more
AN Fuel hoses leaking on race car?
By Mike69cuda
My son bought this Pinto race car cheap he is going to try and flip for a profit. We have been working on it lately and have figured out all the AN type fuel lines leak. They all seem to seep rather than leak at connection. They don’t look very old. What is up with that? It is an E85 fuel car. Could that be the issue?
727 throttle lever and accumulator spring
By Dusterdude72
I’m working on a 76-77 727 for my Cuda and have found a couple bad parts while taking apart and was hoping someone here might have some spares laying around they would be willing to get rid of. My accumulator spring the bottom coils are almost entirely rusted away from water sitting in the pan for decades so I need a new one of those. I also found the throttle lever/kickdown lever seems to have a broken tab and I’m looking for a replacement of one of those aswell. Please send me a message... Read more

How to ship from Canada to the US using Canada Post
By 70SwingerGuy
So awhile back, I ran into the issue of courier services not wanting to ship to the US anymore because of changes in US protocols, specifically duty collection. I actually had UPS tell me to go to Canada Post and give that a try because they refused to ship. So thats what I did, and found it remarkably easy to ship that way. So heres what I do, and I have never had an issue with shipping, large or small. It should be known that I do this all on a desktop computer, not a damn little phone... Read more
Send your carburetor to Riley’s Rebuilds, the teenage tuners
By A56
A gated neighborhood in an upscale Tampa suburb is a strange place to send your carburetors for rebuilding. The shop sits in the three-car garage of a lovely home, alongside a similarly lovely turquoise 1957 Chevrolet Nomad wagon. There is a long table with some chairs, and a workbench is parked next to a couple of soda blasters. All is lit by florescent bulbs overhead. This the modest domain of Riley’s Rebuilds, a carburetor rebuilding service headed by Riley Schlick... Read more

Schumacher SB to BB Biscuit mount not fitting
By CheapnNasty
Searched on this forum and elsewhere but haven’t seen anyone have it fit this close/bad. I did trial fit the engine to the k frame multiple times, and ended up trimming a lot for the oil pump per the instructions. The problem is the back of the oil pump is touching the mount or near touching after prying. This is not really adjustable unless I enlarge the hole in the block mount. Rearmost exhaust manifold hole on passenger side is 2 1/2” from firewall, and I’ve tried cocking the mounts to... Read more
AC Odyssey on a '65 Barracuda
By Chuter
One of the things that keeps us from driving our Barracuda more and farther is lack of air conditioning. I've got most of the parts now, and am starting to install them. No surprise, there is no kit for this application. I've also been challenged by compressor brackets, given the early A engine and no power steering. We like the vents in the original heat/defrost setup, and the heat works well the few times we used it. I replaced the core last summer, it was leaking. I bought a Vintage Air... Read more

Milwaukee M12 vs M18
By rmchrgr
A couple years ago my trusty old Ryobi battery drill driver gave out after many years of service. I'm finally over mourning it's demise and it's time to go get a new one. Have it narrowed down to the Milwaukee M12 vs. M18. Don't need an impact driver, just the drill. I'm leaning towards the M12 because it's smaller/lighter but I'm not sure if it's powerful enough. I know the M18 has a brushless motor version that's lighter but it's way more expensive than the regular one. It doesn't need to... Read more

340 Water Pump Pulley Sizes
By Duster256
My 1971 Duster 340 can run a little on the hot side (220) when idling in Hawaii traffic when ambient temps can average in the mid 80s almost year round. My car is manual steering, no A/C, and has a 1972 340 in it with a single drive belt for the crank, water pump and alternator. It has a 7-blade, 18" fixed (non-clutch) OEM fan that I believe is P/N 2863224, with a 1-5/8" fan spacer on it. I compared the diameter of the 4" tall water pump pulley (approx. 6-3/4" or so diameter) with the... Read more

Heater box fresh air door crack, any thoughts on repair?
By Dana67Dart
So I picked up a great condition one year only 67 A Body heater box. The door was rusted shut but EvapoRust worked it's magic and it's free as a bird now. But.... I just discovered this crack. Set.s line a single spot of weld and done carefully grinding/sanding would clean it up but I'm worried the weld blow through. Thoughts?
