Mark Dudley Jr. runs low 6s in the eighth with his 700+ HP Blackbird Hemi just as a reference point. The 600+ HP Blackbird package plus a Prefix intake (or wait for the Blackbird intake to come out) might get you close your goal. Dudley’s Blackbird Performance 6.4L-Swapped '74 Plymouth Duster...

The standard Blackbird engines run a carburetor. No computer unless you call the timing box a computer which I would not. It’s no more complicated than an MSD box and nobody calls an MSD 6AL a “computer.” Mark Dudley Jr. dropped one as-in in his bracket car. It’s got more than 100 passes on it...

It makes no sense whatsoever to build a 700 HP 440 anymore when the 6.4L Hemi can do it without breaking a sweat at a much lower cost. Blackbird has their turnkey 717 HP Hemi priced at $16,900. Drop in and go. You can’t get close to that kind of reliable power at that cost with a 440. And the...

Agree. All of Blackbird’s Race Spec engines come standard with carburetors. You’d gain a little torque with the factory EFI manifold, but gain a little simplicity with a carburetor. Race Spec Engines

I always thought the cam phaser (for VVT) limiters or locks were kind of hokey. Nice to see a good ol’ fashioned timing set for the new Hemis. Simple and effective for those running cams that would generally need a limiter or lock. Video: Blackbird Performance’s New G3 Hemi VVT Timing Sets -...

120 amp alternator removed from a running Mopar small block. It probably has 500 miles on it and was new when purchased, not remanufactured. This is the external regulator version so you can keep your factory regulator and the associated wiring. It works with factory brackets as well. Super easy...

Is there something different about the 42RE as compared to a 46, 47, or 48? Stand-alone controllers for those others have existed probably more than 10 years. Lots of guys use these for Cummins swaps with 47RE or 48RE transmissions. There’s a ton of history out there on the variety of...
