cold85 04-01-2010, 07:23 PM Well this is my dart and before you start throwing rocks at me. The SBF was an issue where rules were changed and I already had the turbo sbf ford motor so I could not justify spending the extra money just to have a turbo sbm. Last year I ran 275 radial with a BB mopar on nitrous.
And I ran 5.40s all year and was not very consistent, so I know i could have gone almost as fast with the BB but I would not have to fight the torque and nose weight with the turbo sbf

And was doing good with the switch running a 5.19 the low 5.20's all day until I spun and got back it it twice pushing too hard for a win and put it in the wall. But with a new fender and grille will be back next weekend at civil wars
streetdak 04-01-2010, 07:37 PM hey man! Awesome Ride, a fast car is just that, a fast car! We used to run a full tube car with an all motor sbc, got it down to a 4.98 @ 136 @ 2350lbs. Its a blast when your running in the low 5's! welcome!
hemizach 04-02-2010, 03:59 PM AT least it's a ford engine and not a chevy, haha. Still a beautiful car though and looks like it runs like hell. Any video material to go with that great pic?
Jimmy 10-22-2010, 01:50 PM Yeah I guess it's o.k. (drops rock behind back). Nah I'm kidding, sweet ride, I wish I had known I could use a sbf, maybe my wife would still love me and I would have a dollar left on my Visa.:sad5:
HotLines 10-22-2010, 01:59 PM Hemizack, at least you're in Pennsylvania where remarks like yours can be related to inner breeding :)
Cold85, I like the colors and body style you've chosen and your brazen attitude posting this on a semi purist website
03ramit1 10-22-2010, 02:12 PM hey man if it make you happy them go for it. who cares what the purest's out there think.
pishta 10-22-2010, 02:20 PM so you got the intercooler in the back seat? Thats wild! Fuel cells in the cab? That would be a rush to drive!
Commando66 10-22-2010, 02:25 PM I would think that the tanks are for the liquid cooled intercoolers.
HemiEd 10-22-2010, 04:24 PM Gotta admire the nice work, and everything. Very nice! Very clean!
But now, I gotta go scratch my eyes out after seeing a SBF installed in a Mopar! EEWEEEEEEEWOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

lmao!!
godfatherofchry 10-22-2010, 06:09 PM nice car.:angry7:. you got that ford to run that fast.. I can only imagine what you could do with a mopar with all that money:cheers:sorry
HEMI-ITIS 10-22-2010, 06:15 PM All I can see from the stands is a clean fast MOPAR!!8)
duster340 10-22-2010, 07:09 PM looks good! just one Q: it looks like you are running diagonal frontrunners, does it drive ok with the radials in the rear? alot of people says its a bad thing to mix:S
CUUDAK 10-22-2010, 07:46 PM My N/A 514 66 Falcon ran 5.70's and was a blast! Traded it for my Cuda... Look in the w/s at the "RUEZ" over PT/NT, everyone wondered!! Lol! Also had a sticker on the 1/4 glass that read "Crazy white boy inside" with the intel swoosh. Car is running 5.40's now with a cam change. Kinda miss it a little.
FORD= Fast On Race Day
Nice ride dude!
daredevil 10-22-2010, 08:57 PM God I loved that car when you first posted pics here but the thrill is gone.Really nice car but it does nothing for me now.That motor would be faster in a fox body.
duster340 10-23-2010, 06:43 AM this got me thinking of the saying: "anyone can restore an old car,but it takes a real man to cut one up"
kind of similar to doing these engineswaps:)
cold85 10-25-2010, 09:20 AM Thanks guys for the post, I put the car in the wall in a 275 finals early this year. so I put a wrap on the car.

03ramit1 10-25-2010, 10:24 AM man thw wrap looks great. I have been debating a wrap. I'll probably just leave my car s is for now. (with the worn down paint and surface rustshowing through)
