    Brake upgrades using factory parts

    This is exactly what I am looking for. The aftermarket stuff is really pretty and I am sure they perform at a really high level but I have a character flaw that won't let me use them. I 'm tight with my money. With your help I'll be able to improve the car's stopping and still be able to budget...

    Brake upgrades using factory parts

    I'm working on a 1973 Barracuda. It came with disc brakes but like everyone else I want more. I know this has been covered because I can remember reading the article, I even bought some of the parts. Several years later when I want to go back to the upgrade and finish it, the information can't...

    My 70/72 'Cuda (re) build.

    The people that would consider your work to be sacrilege would have quit reading quite some time ago. Your skills and imagination are what I hope for in my own project.

    B body to E body rear-end swap

    Thanks for the reply. I may be trying to fix something that doesn't need it. This is my first E body so I know nothing about wheel and tire fitment. I want to run Cragar SS deep dish wheels on the rear. My previous experience with this was on a 72 Duster. I had to run air shocks to get it to...

    B body to E body rear-end swap

    I've been told that a rear-end out of a 66-67 B body will fit in an E body and give you an additional 3" total clearance for tires/wheels. Has anyone tried this? I am not sure if this would require relocation of the springs or just relocation of spring pads on the differential.
