I guess I can say I did. Now mine is not that fast. But the 360 magnum I have came out of my friends gutted and I mean gutted 94 extended cab dakota. I think he got it down to 2900/3000 pounds with him in it. He ran a best of 7.16 at 96 mph with it. He never raced 1/4 mile. It had home ported EQ heads on it.
So when u bought the engine off him I put it in my 96 short bed dakota. I had a rocker arm come loose on the EQ heads and mess up a valve stem. So rather than get my EQ heads fixed, I just bought a set of trickflow heads,PRW roller rocker arms and mikes B3 rocker arm kit. I am guessing my 96 weighed 3400/3500 pounds with me in it. Well any way with everything the same except the switch from EQ heads to the trickflow heads. So far my dakota has ran a 7.15 at 95.56 and a 11.23 at 115 in the 1/4. All passes were made with 93 pump gas. Do you guys think my MPH in the 1/4 is low? To me i think it is. But I think my torque converter is off. It wasn't built to my engine, came with the 904 transmission i bought. Oops forgot to add the engine details.

I think my dakota should be faster than what it is now. Because I havent got to do any suspension or carb tuning yet. Woukd like to hear your opinions on my build. Next year I am all ready wanting to build a 400+ stroker small block with compression 13.1 and a bigger solid cam or solid roller.
