It’s a lot easier to film the entire process, upload it in 1 location, then share it. As you can imagine, it would be a TON of typing. I use my phone primarily and haven’t had a laptop in years. Thumb can’t work that fast lol. It looks like I got lucky with this plug. I can even hear the...

I’m getting a lot of oil in that cylinder but, I think I got lucky with that plug. Bought my lottery ticket today

Well I found out that the last owners of my newly acquired 1999 Dodge Ram 1500 didn’t believe in changing out their spark plugs. One of the plugs decided to go AWOL the other day. What do you think this 360 magnum is dealing with right now? Not too fond of non-foulers.

I pulled it out of a yard in Otay Mesa. They have a few classics still back there but, no Mopars to my knowledge. They usually bring in fresh cars every quarter

Man I would love to watch that beast blast down the track. You busy the 18th? It’s a test & tune so everyone is welcome

That looks gorgeous. I can easily see that listed for 30k over here in CA

Hey Mike! I’m actually headed to Barona on the 18th with a bunch of other mopar guys. This will be the first pass since Duct Tape. If you’ve got the time, come on down and bring that boosted 5.9

Asked some people what they thought the ‘68 Dodge Dart GT vert was worth at a car show recently. Gotta say I was pretty shocked by the values. I know inflation is rampant but, this felt like B-body territory. I have done a quite a bit to it since the junkyard but, it’s still pretty ratty. 318...

DO IIIITTTT!

Muscle Cars At The Strip (Formerly Mopars at the strip) is collaborating with Chris Albrecht from Talking Mopars and Mike Coffey on a Project car challenge. There are 2 rules: 1. Car must not be running as of October 2022. 2. Car must drive into the event in Las Vegas on March 17th, 2023 While...

I wonder if that’s necessary for a roller cam. I can easily see the need for a flat tappet. Looking at Summit Racing, the only Crower Cam listed for a 5.2/5.9 magnum looks back ordered by 3 months.

… Are you saying there’s a mopar ranch in Alpine? lol never enough projects. The race is July 1st.

Maybe it’s due to my age but, I had no idea a stock bumpstick could even be reground. Just took the OEM cam from a 5.2 magnum to the folks at Crower Cams for a behind the scenes look at how they do it. Anyone else regrinding their camshafts?

It went through the traps at 70mph just about every pass. There was a 90’s Ford full-size van running there last night. I think he was running mid 11s

Here’s the video on YouTube: I was able to iron out my reaction time down sub .1 on my last 3 passes. Best ET was a 10.005. That Durango sure is heavy.

The hellcat matches the Tesla in price. I’m just hoping the AWD system compensates for the low power.

Hey everyone! In preparation for the $3k Hooptie Drag Challenge between Sorta Stock Mopars (SSM) and Jonny Mopar, a few of us on the SSM team are headed to Barona Drags tonight for a little “research” on the track itself. We decided to run our wives’ cars against each other. I’ll be taking my...

Little compilation of all the gorgeous Mopars spotted at this year’s Hot August Nights. Enjoy

Has anyone ever seen rear window louvers on a 2nd gen barracuda coupe? I've seen a few on some fastbacks but NEVER a coupe. I feel up to the challenge to custom fab one up but, I would really like to get an idea of what the finished look would be. I see the body lines, especially around the rear...

The underside

I'm loving all the great ideas guys. This is exactly why I posted this thread. For the cuda I mentioned in the original post, it's going to get a 416 stroker/727/8.75 since I already have one with under 5k miles. After I'm tired of the 416 I've got a feeling a hemi will be in the works. After a...

What about a 340 with hemi conversion heads? I've never even heard of those until recently.

I've used this forum a lot throughout the last 5 years and even relied heavily on it during both my last builds. I absolutely love building these old mopars. I'm just curious as to what many view as the holy grail of builds for our A-Bodies. I just took my dart to a show and I saw some really...

Yeah I'm not a huge fan of the everything chrome and polished myself. It is possible to drive a car like a rental and have everything clean under the hood tho. It's nothing a couple hours of detailing can't fix

For the hemi votes... why just the 426?

Its that all exciting time for me again. I'm headed overseas and I'm going to start blue printing my next build while I'm away. The blank canvas is a 69 barracuda coupe with the leaning power of tower. 100% original with 96k miles and only slight surface rust. After spending sometime...

9!? Your driveway sounds better than any show I've ever been to. I've heard mixed things about the GoodGuys shows but, based off of the volume of cars/people I thought it had to be pretty decent.

Had the opportunity to go to the GoodGuys autumn get together this past weekend but, I've never been let down at a car show as bad as that. Anyone who has ever gone to a GoodGuys event knows how big these things are. Aside from the fact that it was a poor turnout this year, there still may have...

Just thought I'd leave this here :D
