73 Duster build named Fred

-Boosted- said

I have an opportunity to pick up a complete 360 (casted in 79) and 727 transmission for $300. Plan is to do a 408 stroker and performance build on the trans. Think this would be a good start for a street/strip 73 duster?

2nd question.... Who's stroker kit should I go with and why?

My 360 build is remaining stock 3.580", rather than a 4" arm. I am also running a 727 like you have, gearing is 4.10.

I have the following in my engine build, and have been gathering bits for years:

I currently have 3 different manifolds that I want to try out at the track. RPM Airgap, Offy single plane dual quad, and Eddy dual plane dual quad. Next purchase in the intake department is the Weiand 1995 tunnel ram. Planned carbs are a pair of AVS2 500 cfm or a single 750-850 AVS2.
There's lots of other little bits here and there I can't remember right now.

Since I've never done it, I want to try out a crank trigger and coil near plug setup. Yes it's going to cost more money, but I want to LEARN about it. I learn by doing, there is no substitute for experience.

What you want out of your engine is going to determine how much you pay for internals.
Here's a starting point.









this is just an example, google, duckduckgo, qwant, etc...
