    Welcome to FEBO from the desert! Baja California is beautiful! All the Cudas and Challengers running in the Trans Am circuit were 5 liter destroked 340s and they made gobs of power and wound up quick!

    Preload the carb

    Yes, put about 25 to 30 cc (ml) in each side. Don't need to completely fill the bowls as the fuel pump will quickly do that when turning over. What you can spray in the carburetor is some starting fluid. I usually use flammable brake cleaner because it's always within in reach in the barn, but...

    Critters in radiator

    Somewhere there is a chipmunk running around frantically looking for his nuts! 😂

    Good to be Here!

    Welcome to FEBO from the desert! Most 2.76 gears were open, so you may have to have one built. I attached a link to a 3.55 sure grip on eBay. Looks like the guy will build any ratio you need. I don't know who the person is, but 100% rating with 1311 reviews isn't bad...

    fuel adapter

    As long as it runs and you can enjoy it is the main thing at this point. E-Bodies are definitely an "E" ticket ride. I can't wait until you Cuda is running well and you give us a report!

    Harness Wrapping

    What you want to make sure is whatever you use, make sure it's not the soy based crap on all the new cars! That's what rodents love to eat! My 64 Imperial has been outside at least twelve years before I bought it and no wires are eaten because it wasn't soy based back then. Don't ask me about...

    Rear acle help please

    I've seen a lot of Mopars that are in the 1/2" range of offset from side to side and I've heard of some being off as much as an inch, which you unfortunately have. 🙁 Quick and dirty (and I do mean dirty and sleazy) is to jack up the rear of the car on jack stands under the frame, un-bolt the...

    fuel adapter

    I bought the pre-moulded hose to use on my 98 Dakota a few years ago. A section of it might work for you cludged together 383. https://www.amazon.com/16-Universal-Molded-Fuel-Line/dp/B07G2ZWGRG

    Harness Wrapping

    I have no idea and am interested in what others say. I have only seen black tape.

    Value cover studs

    I use two nuts to install the studs. Tighten the nuts together with two 7/16" wrenches. Then install the stud with the smallest 7/16" wrench you have. Loctite would be best. In fact this is the perfect application for red Loctite. You want to tighten the studs tighter than you will tighten the...

    Removing Chrome Windshiled Trim

    I like to add painters (masking) tape around the windshield opening to ensure I don't mess up the paint too. Go slow you'll get the hang of it.

    Removing Chrome Windshiled Trim

    If you don't already have them, get a set of plastic pry bars...

    here is my project

    I like your choice of hood! The T/A scoop is the best looking scoop ever in my humble opinion! And it's functional!

    Value cover studs

    See factory specs below. Looks like just 5/16" goes in the head. So you're good with what you have!
