    Scaling a stock suspension car.

    Finally came into this century and bought a set of corner scales. My duster has always launched pretty well for what it is, but it always squats the right rear, and picks up the left front more. Looking at videos online of proper weights when scaling it usually is a four link or more...

    Window glass.

    Probably the wrong forum to post this, but a buddy of mine was telling me that the weight difference between a factory piece of door glass and a new aftermarket piece of door glass was pretty significant. Oer says their door glass for a 71 duster is 15lbs and the quarter glass is 5lbs. Anybody...

    It's that time of year to go and chase the numbers at Mopar Eastern Classis @ MIR. Oct 22-23. I plan on taking the Duster out and see if I can't better the number some. Getting the car ready to go which means it is all apart again... Bunch of little changes that probably won't add up to much...

    W2 top end.

    Hey guys. I picked up a 340 from craigslist on a whim that happens to have a set of W2 heads and a mopar single plane intake. The guy that built the motor unfortunately passed away so I have very little information on it. It appears it was run for a very, very short time, enough to put some...

    Thermoquad

    Since everyone seems to be excited about thermoquads again I figure it's a good time to mull this over. What would it take to get a thermoquad to flow enough fuel to feed a 550+/- ish horsepower motor on E-85 or C-85? Also just for fun, what's the quickest 1/4mile anyone has run with one?

    Small roots blower for smallblock

    I know there are a few posts from years ago. Just curious if there are any "easy" ways to put a small roots blower on a smallblock. After buying pretty much everything to throw a turbo on my barracuda i decided it would look much cooler with a small roots blower. Not looking for maximum hp...

    Dumb 273 Questions.

    Hey guys, I've got a few probably dumb questions on my 64 273. Since the stroker motor for the duster has taken every penny I have for race cars this year, the 360 I am building for the barracuda is on hold till mid summer. The stock 273 runs, but leaked oil like a stuck pig out of the crank...

    Early-a strut rod

    Probably a dumb question, but I seem to not be able to find an answer. I am re-doing the front suspension and found one of the strut rods are bent pretty badly. The question I have is, are they the same as the later years, if not, does anybody sell them new?

    What would you do?

    I'm in the planning stages of building a street/strip motor for the 64 barracuda. I picked up what I thought was a clean 360, ended up being a turd. Crank has already been cut .020, already been bored .020 and it looks like it may take another 20 to 30 to clean up. I also have a 4" mopar...
