    Garage find Barracuda photos

    I found the decoding book was not that great. The most useful and free was a Charger site decoding section. You can use the internet to find out most of the codes. Just search around. Your car has the map light so it may have had the A01 Light Group.

    Speed control repair

    I recently watched an old re-run of Overhaulin were they did a ladies Barracuda Gran Coupe that had been purchased new by her Grandma. It must have had cruise originally because I noticed the distinctive turn signal lever while they were stripping the car down.

    You probably already know this the factory service manual has a section on the speed control. There may be something in there that may help. Accessories section.

    Speed control repair

    It is most likely a fairly rare option and no one knows anything. I have never seen a car with the original set-up only seen pictures in a book. I would contact one of the known guys that does the top end resto work as I suspect parts will be pretty hard to get. They may know somebody.

    Cooling system question...

    I agree that there seems to be little point running an electric fans all the time.

    Cooling system question...

    I would keep the 195 thermostat for now. I think the on/off spread of your fan stat is too wide and the location is probably not right either. I have a similar radiator/fan combo to you - description wise anyway. I have a switch that is ON at 203F and OFF at 194F mounted in the intake manifold...

    Break-In oil Royal Purple?? Opinions??

    Best to use a formulated break in oil. No real benefit to put in extra additive from info I read.

    Undercoating Removal Advice

    I saw a guy on You Tube removing it with one of those scale remover/needle pin pneumatic gun things. It looked like it was easy and did a good job.

    Coolant recovery system

    A recovery cap has a little flap valve right in the middle at the bottom of the cap were the water is. You can pull it up with your finger nail. A non recovery cap won't have this. The additional valve is the only difference between the two styles of cap. Run the water level around 1 inch down...

    Coolant recovery system

    You may already have a recovery cap. Plenty of info on the internet. Recovery bottle and the correct cap and it will work. It is a good idea to fit this system.

    71 Challenger in AZ

    I hope it does work OK when you get the switch mounted and power on it.

    71 Challenger in AZ

    It does take a bit of "effort" to get the switch in to this position. The interior lights are ON permanently with the switch in this position - so you would not want it to be to easy and you may not notice the lights ON and flatten the battery.

    71 Challenger in AZ

    The dimmer switch also has a position that brings on the interior lights. It is the position you are talking about I think.

    Chasing a dream but is it worth it ???

    I believe the first question you need to ask yourself is do I have the skills and perseverance to get this car going. If not just go and by a nice one that you can just drive.

    Bracket Ground

    The tail lights usually go to ground through the tail light housings and the body shell. When you were working on the coil did you disturb one of the ground cables under the hood? These ground cables complete the circuit to the battery.

    quest for 340 at 450hp

    With the stall you have it is going to get up to the RPM were the larger header is no real issue - more of an advantage in the upper RPM range anyway most likely. I found exhaust diameter was critical playing around with 750 CC motorbike engines. The smaller the engine the more critical sizing...

    You may not notice much or any power increase - but the cabin heater will work better!
