Another day at Thunderhill Raceway has come and gone and I wanted to write a post to share the trip with you all and post my photos and videos. My hopes are to encourage more to come out to events like this. We traveled out to California last Saturday the 28th, me pulling our travel trailer...

I recently 4 speed swapped my Super Bee and while doing the conversion, I went with an American Powertrain Hydraulic throwout bearing kit. I went step by step, and dialed everything in according to the instruction. My throw out bearing was set with 0.163" and within the specified range. Pedal...

On Memorial Day, I will be taking my Super Bee out to Thunderhill Raceway, in Willows California, for a High Performance Driving Event (HPDE), and wanted to invite you all to join us. HPDE's are open track days where you can run your car out on a road course race race track with minimal effort...

I was playing around in the garage yesterday and was thinking about adding a baffle to the bottom of an oil pan to help control oil under hard g forces. Now, I know I can just run over to Summit and grab a $500 Milodon road racing pan but I love tinkering on stuff, and I wanted to try to make...

Yanked my 440 out in preparation to 4 speed swap my Bee. I’m going to reseal the 440 and clean things up since it’s been in the car for 20 years now and leaks oil from everywhere. I’d like to repaint the engine before it goes back in. I’m looking for ideas on how to prep and/or remove the old...

I picked up this A-833 4 speed today, I’m going to do a 4 speed swap on my Bee. It’s out of a 69’ Charger. VIN I believe is XS29G9G201677 Willing to trade for another equal condition 4 speed if you own this Charger. In Reno Nevada. EDIT: VIN appears to be XS29L9G201677 with an "L", not the "G"...

I have a Mopar Performance Forged Crank for a RB Big Block. Bought it from the dealership 20+ years ago. I believe the part number back then was P5249208. It is new, never been installed. This is one of the good ones if you want to build a solid Mopar/Chrysler big block or Hemi. It is a 4.15...

My daughter and her husband are in the Air National Guard here in Nevada. They had a nice family day event today with a small car show, some great bbq, and plenty of games. I was able to take my Bee, and my D-150, and got some great photos out on the flight line with one of the C-130’s. Felt the...

On Memorial Day 2021, myself and a few buddies went over to Thunder Hill Raceway in Willows, California for a Track Day. While camping at the track the night before, I was BS’ing with my buddies about Mopar vs. Chevy and heard a lot about bringing a boat anchor to a road course and so on. I...

Hey FBBO, I need some ideas...... I'm looking to add a transmission cooler to my Bee since I'm cooking the fluid on track days at the road course. Currently I have a deep pan with the factory radiator cooler and it is absolutely inadequate. I'd love to mount one or two under the car, maybe...

Hey FBBO, my low compression 440 has served me well for 22 years, but I'm ready to step it up a bit. Its a 73' cast piston/crank engine I pulled from Pick N Pull and refreshed with rings and bearings years ago. I did install 906's with 2.14/1.81 valves that had the ports cleaned up. I added a...

Hey FBBO... My Super Bee was used in a music video back in June and I figured I needed to share the final cut. Long story short, a good friends kid is a manager for this artist and they reached out looking for a classic car to be in the filming of this video. I spoke with them and they were kind...

Found a rare bird while out on vacation today. Happen to be cruising down a rural Nevada highway and saw the remains of a 2 door Mopar down at the bottom of a steep grade. After hiking down to it, here’s what I found. It still has the VIN and fender tag but the original engine, trans, and axle...
