My 73 automatic floor shift Barracuda can shift out of park and into any gear without the key in the ignition also. There is no and was no interlock (linkage) on my car. Maybe if it was a column shift there may have been an interlock when the key was not in the ignition.

In order to use the fuel return your car should have the fuel vapor separator, before the fuel pump. From there you would have the return line which would feed back to your sending unit. You must be missing the return line as well?

I switched from the Mopar electronic ignition to the Summit brand, ready to run distributor. It fit under my 6 brrl air cleaner and has vacuum advance if needed. Knock on wood, I have not had any problems. Using the RTR distributor allowed me to clean up the firewall a bit and less wires.

Nice work. The car looks great. The sad part about finishing the car is that you have gotten into a habit of working on the car nights and weekends and now you don't have to work on it anymore, at least to the same level that you were working on it. It leaves an empty space in your time, in a...

Did you buy your exhaust yet? If you haven't you may be able to buy that when you order your exhaust. When I bought my exhaust from TTI, I ordered everything that I needed from them. My car was a single exhaust car too.

Welcome to the site. You will most likely be able to get all your answers here. Lots of very knowledgeable people here.

I use Champion plugs in my 440 6brrl. She starts right up and idles great. 1K miles on them so far.

If you could, pull the new items out of the carrier and lay them next to the old parts and compare. I would think the difference would be able to be seen. If not I would contact Mancini Racing with your question. They should be able to answer you.

Glad you chose the Red one. Great progress and its looking great. Keep posting the progress.

Welcome to the site from Massachusetts! Look forward to questions and more pictures of the Challenger.

My original time delay relay wasn't working so I took it apart. It is just a contact that is closed when hot, and opens when it cools down, approximately 20-30 seconds. The contacts get dirty. I used 220 sandpaper and just dragged it across the contacts to clean them. Works like a champ once again.

When troubleshooting always split the problem in two so that you can rule out one or the other, ie unplug the rear lamp harness in the drivers kick panel and check that half first. Make sure the rear lamp harness has a good ground. My 73 has the ground wire near the drivers side taillight...

Thank you. I will check out FBBO.

Hello All. Has anyone every rebuilt or know where to get parts to rebuild the heater control valve from a 1973 Barracuda? I know other years and body lines may have used this type. I took mine apart and the small round rubber seal broke in pieces because it had hardened. I see some NOS ones for...

Looking good.
