Well, I finally got started tearing the car down to pull the small block and 727. I had been posting on here a while back when getting the car dialed in with LA setup. I am on break from MSU for winter holiday's so I am excited about my first engine swap. It feels good to do some real work now...

Getting ready to order my tranny and mounts to get this big block swapped in. Needless to say I am not sad to see the SBM go.

Well I plan on pulling the 360 out of my car and putting it in a dakota r/t body style with a 2.45 gear or 2.76 with about a 29 inch tire. It should weigh around 3,800 and will be lowered. With EZ efi feeding the OOTB eddys and a small flat cam do you think 20mpg is achieveable at about 2k rpms...

See title... I dont really want to pay for the torque strap deal from schuemacher(sp) and just want to get this stroker motor in without having to worry about breaking rubbers.

I just bought an indy 500 inch motor to put in my duster, and need a big block tranny. I saw where TCI makes one that is supposed to handle like 725-1000 plus hp and was wondering of any thoughts or better options were out there. I ran a TCI behind the small block with great results so I was...

I am putting a 400 stoker in my duster and need headers for the ez's. I read where mad dog had some and tti did too. I want 2'' full length preferably not fender wells, do any of you guys have these heads and what headers do you run. Thanks!

I am selling the engine and tranny out of my duster. The motor is a 363 MP short block, eddlebrock rpm aluminum heads, air gap intake, proform 850 carb, tti long tube a body headers, all new accessories on front, MSD distributor, milidon oil system. The tranny is a TCI super street fighter...

Duster wit da school bus mota - YouTube 11.93 @112 w/ 1.65 60' car has gone 1.54s so I am hoping for 11.80s at Gulfport Dragway during Cruisin the Coast.. Eddy heads ootb Stock stroke 360 Flat tappet cam

Took the car to the local 500' track and she impressed me. 1.54 60' and 6.26 through the 500'. I moved the battery to the trunk and put solid motor mounts in since the previous best of 1.65.

Well I moved my battery to the trunk and got it all situated! The polished taylor box looks outstanding in my trunk. I got pics just not uploaded yet. Anyways while I was running the power cable up to the front I noticed a mark on one of my header tubes and found the driver side rubber mount...

I have a mech fuel pump and am thinking that it is at the brink of where it can keep up now. Do you think it could keep up with a little nitrous or is that just :smilebox:. I guess it must be time to put a fuel cell in it.

Took the car to a localish 1/8 mile track and the best pass of the day was a 7.65 @88 with a 1.66 60' off the footbrake. I wish it would have gone in the 50s but the track didnt seem to be there. I need to move my battery and see what she can do then. Overall I was pleased and had a blast making...

Well I bought a dual snorkle scoop at the mopars at the battleship. Here's a rough pic of it mounted on my steel hood before paint. Its a crappy cell phone pic and makes the car look pink but its all I have. ENJOY

Went to Mobile Saturday for Mopars at the Battleship with the rig and was fortunate enough to win Best A Body and Top 40 Pre 1975. I wish I would have thought to get more pictures of the other cars but was busy admiring all the correctly branded cars that were in attendance. Well here are some...

Well I really like how my flat gloss black hood looks so I was thinking how to get some forced air into the engine. I was thinking go to track and pull off the "1971" tag from the front bumper and expose a molded in air box. I think I could somehow run a pipe up to the carb, but dont have the...

Has anyone put 17 inch drag wheels up front with say a 15x10 rear wheel with some drag radial goodness on one of these cars? I have seen the ls1 guys and fox body guys do it but just wonder what my car would look like with some 17 inch alumastars up front....HMMM

I want to see some bad boy eddy headed small blocks. They seem to flow enough to support lower 600s N/A when ported to the max on 408s and other strokers. Let me see your builds as long as the have eddy heads and are LA powered.

Ok guys how well will my current set up react to a full port job on the heads and a cam to match the flow ratings. I know I need more cam than I have now. How much would this help my 1/4 mile times. Prob somewhere around 11.50s with a solid head job?? The heads have 0 work done to them now so we...

I am contemplating this swap and think I have came up with this. 5.7 hemi stock heads ported comp 268 cam stock internals fast self tuning with carb style intake This would be over 500hp or am I dead wrong? I also came up with needing flexplate for 727 headers prob tti motor mounts - i found...

Ran the car at cruisin the coast this weekend. It picked up pretty good. Ran a 12.010 @ 112 on foot brake off idle. I was happy but never got it in the 11s I know it has it in it. I was just glad to outrun most of the ls1 crap there. I hate hearing about how good they are.

Crappy cell quality, but it is what it is.

Well me and few friends went to the local 500' track yesterday and had fun. My duster unfortunately wasnt ready for track duty because last time I took it and blew the spider gears and I havent checked the sprag yet so I was disappointed about that. I was surprised thought about my dads...

I am thinking of how to get fresh air into my carb and want to do the snorkle scoop. Any pics of one gloss black on a gloss black hood?

I am bout to finish up my freshman year of college and am really needing to pick a major. I am undeclared now and have been taking classes that will count for pretty much any major. The question I have for you all is as follows: If you could go back to school and go into some type of career what...

How much power can be supported by a high volume in tank pump and 3/8 fuel lines?

I have a flat steel hood on the duster now. How much would the weight loss and forced air help out at the track if I switch to a snorkel type fiberglass hood using the hinges and pins.

Well I got all the spider gears picked out of my housing and got the spool in. I cant wait to get her back at the track. Here is a random video of me putting her up after a short cruise to break her in. YouTube- Duster

Has anyone used a carb spacer on a rpm air gap with success? I know they dont work as good with single planes but what about mine?

Does anyone know the weight differences on a 71 duster off the top of their head? Fiberglass v. steel. Decklid Hood Front and rear bumpers Thanks, Drew
