Cuda & Challenger General Discussion (ROSEVILLE MOPARTS) / Re: Ride height
Last post by MoparCarGuy - May 17, 2024, 08:29:22 PMThought I would add the guides I put together to this thread if anyone did not want to go through the other threads. Should answer Cuda Joe's question on setting ride height. Also, included the service manual section for same info.

Last post by Racer57 - May 17, 2024, 07:17:05 PMQuote from: xx88man on May 17, 2024, 01:32:07 PMI want to buy 2 of these bypass wires. Sent a message to @crackedback some time ago and never got a response. Is he still doing them? Or anyone else making them. I'm in CanadaI went to a local battery shop and they made one for me.

I ordered a case of WIX 51515 filters and a case of 51085 filters from Amazon, at a great price, and they are both made in the USA. For you Canadian guys, that was Amazon.com not Amazon.ca.

I will try that tomorrow and see if it works. I don't think there is an adjustment, so I may just remove the latch to see what's going on.

That does seem to be a bit of a puzzler. I looked at my passenger's side door latch, and one idea that comes to mind is checking the latch without closing the door. Meaning, with the door open, are you able to depress the latch manually and then, using the interior handle, "open" or trigger the mechanism? That will really tell you whether the handle doesn't work or if there's an issue with either the rod or something in the latch.
Also, you could take off the handle from the inside and try and use the rod to trigger/unlatch to door.
I don't know of anyone who sells aftermarket latches.

Your Restoration project (ROSEVILLE MOPARTS) / Re: 1970 Barracuda Reanimated.
Last post by Marty - May 17, 2024, 05:20:39 PMThe 440 assembly was prepped and sprayed with red oxide epoxy primer. HEMI orange was sprayed then clear coated. Did some further assembly but there are still some items that still need to be added as the assembly goes along. Plug wires, spark plugs, heat shields and such.
Prepped and primed the HEMI valve covers with epoxy primer. I applied three heavy coats of VHT Wrinkle Finish paint. Each application was applied in a different direction. Horizontal, vertical and diagonal with a five-minute flash. After a few hours or so the wrinkle finish appeared. The finish developed a nice even pattern and after a few days of curing the wrinkles tightened. Assembled to the engine.
The 1971 Cuda was finished up and taken to another shop to have the engine/trans reinstalled, front end rebuilt, rear suspension put back to stock and to remove those nasty wheels and tires to be replace by stock tires/rallye's.
This 1970 Cuda was found in Miami,Ok. It was stored in a shop after the front end was wiped out by the second owner. The Cuda has been sitting since 1985. The fender tags mysteriously disappeared after a third party be-friended the owner. 440/auto. It'll be a while before it heads my way.
