You're right, the owner isn't willing to throw bags of money at this project--Just want to keep it simple and preserve the originality of the car. Car is a '69 4spd Dart with 3.23 gears. J.Rob
Ahhhhh, there we go! Thanks. Just the information I was looking for. As well as the key words, reasonable cost, using the “KISS” method, out a little excitement in it. 3.2:’s and a 4spd. Very nice. Driver drive train. I suppose tires aren’t very big then? Stock or slightly over sized.
When I was still working in my garage for customers & the order came in with these parameters, there would be just a few questions I’d need to ask. (I loved these chats with people when they new what they wanted.)
What kind of power increase are you thinking of?
At what RPM are you cruising at?
Are you looking for “That Muscle Car sound?” Or a smooth idle?
I’m not sure what you’ll do for a cams duration. With stock heads with a nice valve job, the cam will not have to be to large for a nice return on power and have great driving attributes.
