Yeah, mine is orginally f3 green. It has been repainted at one time after it had been wrecked and fixed half *** and so forth. So the green in the picture is probably not really correct.

I have a holley projection unit,well,almsot 2 units,minus one throttle body,that might be just the ticket for you.I bought it for my 318,off ebay last summer,but the seller forgot to mention it was only good up to 275 horsepower.I have gone way past that,so i have been contemplating selling the units to get a new carb and some extras for my 71 dart.I would take 400.00 plus shipping,if your interested,let me know http://store.summitracing.com/partd...925239+4294839074+4294853151+115&autoview=sku by the way,there is an extra,new mallory in line fuel pump with them,and some other things,cant remeber what right now

I'll take the Duster.....
Thats a Great lookin Demon you have. Great starting place. Be sure to check the torsion boxes for metal fatigue. Being a west-coast car it shouldnt be a problem. You should try rebuilding a east coast car.....Jesus. They must salt the roads every time it rains! ALSO, thats a nice XJ you have. Looks stout as hell.
j-miller I know where you are comming from. My Duster looks like that on the underside tho.

If you or Demonator ever do that 4-link rear suspension, I'd love to see how that goes. I'm wanting to try it in my Demon as well. :-D
Well, I finally decided to get installing the brakes over with. I planned on the tear-down today and the install tomorrow. Amazingly, tear-down only took two hours. I thought it was going to be rustier down there, but it looks like the grease actually prevented a lot.
Anyway, I also did my homework by getting every step from three or four sets of instructions into a single set. That definitely was the best thing for time-saving.
Anyway, on with the pictures:
The end of the tear-down:
All the stuff that's going to the junkyard:
New Magnumforce UCAs:
Finished product on one side:
Now here's where I met my fatal oversight - at the end of the install. The wheel centers of my stock 14" wheels won't fit around the hub :brickwall. I checked, and the caliper isn't rubbing, it's definitely the wheel centers. Dunno what I'm going to do :dunno:
And here's how it sits for the night:

A little update:
I got all the brake parts working together, and yesterday had it aligned. It's driving around town now with only some slop in the steering due to the worn steering box.
I installed some hood pins the other day:
And got this guy for free yesterday:
So it should be a fun summer building this 360

looks like you need new bearings....my 340 is in the machine shop right now for some work...about 1grand with my discount...
Well guess what came home today!
.030 over, dipped, and new internals (minus rods)
I also did a lot of work on my shifter bracket. I ground down the edges, painted it black, and drilled the mounting holes both for the shifter and the bracket.

Couple more updates:
I finished the rendering of it a while ago now -
Motor is coming along -
Nice rendering... did you free hand that or is it a computer program. Either way you may be able to fund your project by doing renderings for members... just a thought.
It's by computer (Illustrator and Photoshop) - and I have been funding them
