Redid the rear lines with full flow fittings, might have to try a 90 degree on the right to get rid of sharp turn in that line.

Finally got started on winter upgrades. Had the rear backing plates sandblasted and removed a little excess weight. Diff is out to replace the 4.10 gears with 3.91’s in the quest for more MPH. I’m planning to turn the wick up a bit more for next season but more of that in the new year!

In my continuing effort to get my car MSA legal for super stock I fitted a battery cut off switch with an external shutoff. Barracuda’s have a gap under the boot lid above the bumper so an ideal place to run the rod through. Just need to run a new alternator lead through to the switch so it cuts the engine as well.
