"low dollar 318 hop up" - mission accomplished
For those that followed/remembered the "low dollar 318 hop up",
my Low dollar 318 hop-up project
well, I made it back down to the strip.
Here is a copy of the 1st run at the strip. Remember the "bog" I had?
Ran the "low dollar 318" in the Duster today
I sold the Eddy, and pieced together this 670 street avenger holley. Got back down there and ran a 14.95 at about 95 mph. My goal was to throw under 500 bucks at a 318 2bbl in a Duster with automatic with 2.76 gears (things that could be done with the motor in the car) and run with a Factory '73 340 Duster with auto/3.21 gears. They are well documented to go low 15's at 93 mph from the factory. I just barely exceeded them :) ..... no headers, factory stall, 2.76's
