On a 70 Barracuda convertible, I had a rattle that I could NOT find, even with everything out of the car. Driving down the road I noticed movement in in the side mirror. Moved hand by door seam and felt the door moving around. Found it. Installed weld on subframe connectors. This was about 1980...

Progressive, for street. Had 383 70 Barracuda went to old factory 2x4 intake and ran 2 400cfm Carters with electric chokes on both carbs. That turkey got me my best gas mileage of ANY carb setup that I had tried, also best cold weather start of any B engine that I have seen. For daily driving...

If you start a new thread, you should get some replies. As it stands, you have had none. It only bothers me in that you have a car problem and no answer or hint of a fix. And yes I have not paid proper attention to the age of a post before. Thought it had last reply the day before. Failed to...

After having a friend have a issue of there parking brake cable glowing when cranking, I have added extra ground wires around the motor mounts to frame. Hard to see and also works well. When I had the battery in the trunk ran extra cable to transmission ear near starter. That one is harder to...

I did run the cast iron 2x4 383 using 2 400cfm Carters with electric chokes on both along with a progressive throttle. Did have to make my own baseplate from a Hemi 2x4 base modified to fit out of fiberglass. That intake got 2 mpg better then the best 4 barrel attempts. It also had the very best...

I got my best adjustment by driving in a parking lot with glare ice. It was hard to do in Texas, but it can happen.

If anything I prefer less toe in about 1/16 inch on rear wheel drive car and 1/16 out on front wheel drive. What you are using is still OK.

Cause of fire will almost always be related to cracked fuel line. Lucas, the dark lord does not play with Mopars. When the wiring goes, it almost always quits running. Unless the alternator blows up while driving.

Frame connectors cured a rattle in a 70 Barracuda Conv. It was due to the door moving around in normal driving, saw it in outside mirror and put my hand on outside door seam. I had been searching for that rattle a while.

This should muddy the waters more, you can also play around with vacuum delay valves. However the only real way to tell if it helps or hurts is to keep very detail records of changes made and improvements or losses. You can also use a 3 way vacuum connection. These changes like this for a street...

Now the question is what was there stock for that spring? You can tell by looking at the bottom of the spring for markings where the clamp was, also for the clamp locator holes are. Mine are a older set of SS springs ordered for a different car long ago. Took time to find pictures where they...

On the front brake line, at the master cylinder use a sheet metal screw into the line seat. Remove seat with cutters and remove the residual check valve and spring. Put seat back into master cylinder.

Now my 2 cents worth. How about a hybrid system using carb and in tank electric fuel pump? The in tank electric pump solves the gas boiling out of your carb and hot start issues. The only tuning that your carb should need is when the seasons change. Electric chokes IMHO are a god send, at least...

If you have to make new lines, this Wilwood valve is my favorite. All lines run from it and no other connections. Start with passenger side line as it is the hardest.

GM Type 2 pump metric o ring fitting. edit: might have misunderstood what the question was. Appears to be a AN size fitting
