Yes, a 904 is the he ticket to punch. It frees up more HP.
So in my situation, after the car is stripped of all surface rust and the interior is clean metal, should I first put the roll cage in before anything else?..and ...and ..and - but considering where you are at - time to get the frame situated!
yes - you take a chance on tweaking something if you don't get that shored up... there really isn't much holding those front frame rails in place. In fact, the lower radiator support already looks a bit wavy..So in my situation, after the car is stripped of all surface rust and the interior is clean metal, should I first put the roll cage in before anything else?
you could put the K frame back under there - that'll keep it stiffer-ish side to side - but up an down is an issue too - again, I would get the rollbar in there... pronto. I haven't checked/read the rule book in quite a while, but I am thinking 10 point roll cage at least.I noticed that when we rebuilt the demon. Is there anything more you can do to stiffen the frame? Or that roll bar is just enough? Sorry for all the question, you guys know a lot about building theses mopars so you can surley help.
If I had a caster mover setup that bolts into where the k-frame bolts into and had a cross brace that tied the two side together, would that be good enough? That setup would be allowing the frame to be at the same height while keeping the frame square to each side. Just a though not sure if that work tooi'd consider putting the doors on to get good even body lines. then make sure they open and close nice. Then weld or bolt a tempotrary stiffener bar from your hinge area to striker area. Then take your doors back off and proceed.
