Street / Strip deal. Thanks!

Yes, I have run their 'Gear-RPM-MPH-Tire Diameter' calculator that includes the transmission ratio input and converter slippage %. Good for getting a base. Out fishing for some real world input. Thanks!

Looking for input on a rear gear ratio for 1/8 mile bracket racing. I only bracket raced 1320 in the past. Basically build a mid to low 8 second street/strip package small block (under 6k RPM). Low gear 904, 28.0 radial slick, 10" wheel. The goal is crossing the 1/8 mile stripe in second. I am...

I had an out of the box 360/380 crate motor. 4.56 gear, 9.5" Dynamic converter, 9x30 / 94.0" bias slicks on a 7" wheel. It would go through the lights at 5700.

Sold

Yes, and I would bet the farm he'd be insulted on top of it. Fair market value based on condition has no meaning to the entitlement generation.

Any idea what the car weighs with driver? Pretty impressive numbers.

The angle of the harness shoulder straps to an attachment point is very critical. The straps must be level or no more than 4" below than the height of your shoulders. There is an illustration in the NHRA rule book.

From the video.... "I'll bet it was quite a project to design a V8 engine to go with our compact Valiant and Dart" Some engineer probably said...'I pity the poor hot rodder that ever wants to put headers on this thing' :evil4:

Any one have actual photos of the DD8 headers for early A bodies out of the box and installed? I spoke with Fransisco at Sanderson and he said sets have been built and sold. Hoping maybe a member here purchased a set. :cheers:

First time in the 2013 catalog, not listed in the 2012 catalog or online (yet). I called them and they don't have them in stock yet (as of today 2/05). Catalog shows $78.00 each.

I just got a 2013 Coker Tire catalog with my latest Hemmings Motor News. Page 45 shows a 15x4 standard Mopar center and the police wheel avaliable in both 4 1/2" & 4"(police 4 1/2" only) bolt patterns. :cheers: They appear to have not updated their website to show the new size, this is...

Don't count on it! I think I may have worked on that Dart when I was employed at Doering Dodge in the late 70's...LOL!

Just because someone throws out a price, means it market value gospel. Look at the goofs on Craigslist posting junk for $5,000+ who are so lazy they don't move the crap stacked on filthy 4 door beaters with flat tires that hasn't run in years. I agree on many of these so called "rust-free"...

I think so many Mopar owners go for the Mopar only type events. It's the "Mopar or no car" mindset.
