So I went to replace the switch, and what rockauto sent me has 3 connections on it, while what's on the transmission has only a single wire. Read up, and found that they changed it to 3 wire mid 68. Can't find a single wire plug. Was told I could run a couple wires to a start stop button for...

Alright all tests lead to the neutral switch, I'm gonna change that out on Sunday I think. Can't today, I'm heading down to Santa Cruz to look at a 68 Ford Torino Squire!

I've had double shifts all week, gonna dive into this on Saturday and will report back!

Already replaced the relay cause it was pretty cheap. The starter itself starts just fine when the relay is jumped. When I turn the key I dont get anything. It will only start with the key in run and the relay jumped.

Everything does, except brake lights I got a burnt out fuse. I gotta order them.

Thank you! I was wondering how to test that too

Nice I will check that out!

Well when I put it in neutral it doesn't start either. I heard that's how to tell, is that wrong? And thanks, I'll try to unscrew it like that. I do have a new neutral switch handy as well if that doesn't solve it.

Bah crap I put this on the wrong area, could a mod move it please? I won't make a duplicate one.

Hey guys, I think my ignition went out, one day on a cruise we stopped to let another's car cool down, and went to restart and got nothing. We jumped the solenoid relay with a rod and that's the only way we are able to start her up. I replaced the solenoid relay and that didn't fix it. So...

Dang, ok, I'll go to Good guys in March and see who I can find. Thanks for all the tips! I think a basic rebuild is in order

Been looking online all morning trying to find shops that don't specialize in paint and wheels urgh. Very surprising to have this hard a time to find a shop with vintage car knowledge.

She Burns oil pretty fast, and the current carb needs a rebuild. She'll go A to B, starts are ok, except for cold start, where I need to take off the air cleaner and close the choke to get it to start.

Oh man you are right, there is alot to think about. I do just want a better running 383, start confidently, smooth and fun. I'll be at the mercy of a shop to do this, i have no garage and never tore an engine down before. I just need to make sure they do it right and what they are supposed to do

Didn't even think about the tranny, thank you!

New Life for Mopar 383 Big-Block Like this? I really like this

I look forward to it! Thanks for all the advice

I like the way you think

Nice list! About how much did all this cost you? I currently have a Pertronix in mine and wondered if a MSD ignition would be good to use?

That's exactly what I'm trying to do, when I look it up it's either a really old build, or a magazines build. Problem with the magazines is that they got a bucket of cash, that's where I read the demon carb and Edelbrock intake. It would be great to find someone with a 383 2BBL that has done a...
