Good evening Mopar performance Gurus! Question for the group... I am swapping over from my Holley Pro Dominator tunnel ram/dual 850 carb setup to a single carb setup using a Dominic Thumper built 1050ish Dominator. I have a Mopar Performance M1 big runner W5 intake and a Indy 360 rectangular...

There are a lot of scams going on out there right now. I almost got caught up in one last weekend. I've been trying to find a couple of good used replacement windows for my motorhome. Saw a listing on FB marketplace by a guy in Nevada claiming to have two of the same make as mine that he was...

For anyone who may be interested, the big news from the PRI show this morning is that Leah Pruitt is stepping aside as the driver of the TSR Top Fuel dragster after the Brandenton invitational race and Tony in stepping in. This is because they want to start a family in 2024.

Asking if anyone might have any thoughts on what might be causing this. For consecutive weeks I've broken an exhaust rocker arm. Last week #4 exhaust rocker broke. This past Friday night #5 exhaust rocker broke. These are Harland Sharp rockers installed on Mopar Performance aluminum W5...

Had this happen when car launched for my first time run this past Sunday. Thankfully there seems to be no other issues and I got a replacement from Harland Sharp today.

So the wife and I decided to tow down from the rainy tundra of Maine, along with another racer from our town, to the Independence Showdown at Maple Grove this past weekend. Hit the road last Wednesday and drove through some real downpours in southern Maine and Mass. Towing my car/trailer with...

Anyone going to the Independence Showdown race at Maple Grove this weekend? My and another Sabattus, Maine racer are heading down starting Wednesday. Be nice to meet some fellow FABO racers there.

Was at Lebanon Valley Dragway this past weekend. Bought into the Friday track rental as I've only made two full pass 1/4 runs in the Arrow this season. Things were going great, made 4 passes with a best run of 9.28. The last run of the evening potential disaster struck. Car was running great...

I have a M1 W5 intake, casting number P4532658 that I was planning on using as a single carb setup on my 340 X block based 422 with MP aluminum W5 heads. However, when I set the intake in place on the engine there was a considerable gap between the intake and the heads. Does anyone know what...

For those who are fans of Street Outlaws NPK racing keep Lizzi Musi in your thoughts and prayers. She was just diagnosed with stage 4 triple negative breast cancer. She has a hard fight ahead of her.

For your viewing pleasure I introduce to you the OLD GOAT, Part 2. Special thanks to Nick Huff of Team Huff Customs, Bangor, Maine, for the outstanding wrap!

Does anyone know of any outfit that makes pre-cut lexan window kits for Plymouth Arrows? I'd like to replace the front and rear windows on Old Goat II but none of the usual suspects makes them. I know I can cut them myself from sheet stock but you guys haven't seen me try to use a jig saw!

Looking for a good, used Indy 360-3 intake manifold for oval port W2 econo heads. 4500 base pattern is fine and will also consider 4150 base pattern.

Will an Indy intake bolt on to W2 econo heads?

Got the Old Goat Dart into the nines at New England Dragway this past Saturday! First run right off the trailer! Now I can relax and plan for the off season.

Had all time best 1/4 mile run this past Saturday at New England Dragway Ray Rice Memorial Race. 10.04 in the second time trial. First time trial was a 10.06! Would have probably been in the nines as the car was getting in the top end rpm limit chip in the 2 step well before the finish line...

Spent this past Saturday and Sunday at Winterport Dragway for their next to last points weekend of the season up here in the frozen tundra of Maine. Sunday morning was cool in the low 50s. First practice run at 10 am was a 6.373 @ 107.91. Best run ever for the Old Goat! Then came second...

Greetings from Maine where if you ain't freezin, you're getting eaten alive by black flies! Need some help concerning what is wrong with my suspension. Over the winter I removed all of the OEM front suspension, torsion bars and K-member. Replaced it with a tubular K-member, upper and lower...

Offered for sale is a set of Mopar Performance W2 aluminum roller rockers. Comes complete with shafts, 2 sets of mounting blocks for both W2 econo and race heads, bolts and assorted shims. Rockers have new adjusters. One of the rockers has some scratches on the bottom of it, but doesn't...

Good morning Mopar race gurus! I have yet another question for the sages who post here regularly. Made my first trip of the season to New Oxford Dragway, and I noticed after each run I made some trans fluid leaking from the front bell housing area of the transmission. It was a fairly large...

Has nothing to do with Mopar ( though it's in my class A motorhome that I use to tow my 72 Dart drag car & trailer to weekend racing events) but I'm having an issue that has me scratching my head. This is the 3rd motorhome that I've owned with the Ford Triton 6.8 V10. Never had any issues with...

Received the front suspension kit I ordered from Tory Shellehamer this week. I'm planning on installing it this weekend on my Dart. It looks fantastic and the workmanship is superb! I'll post photos to document the install.

Good morning all, Apologizing in advance, but my old timer's disease is kicking my backside this morning. I'm trying to order a set of pushrod adjusters and lock nuts from Smith Brothers to fit the Norris stainless W2 roller rocker arms that I have. My problem is I can't remember what diameter...

Since it's Friday and I figure everyone can enjoy a good laugh at my expense, I need some advise/instruction.... I'm prepping my Dart drag car to replace the OEM front suspension/ K frame with one of Tory Shelllehamer's kits. I'm at the point where I'm trying to remove the spindles from the...

Lot of drama going on right now with New England Dragway. Reports of an un-named 'entity' submitting an unsolicited 'unknown amount' offer to buy the entire facility with an uncertain future to the track's Board of Directors. Of course, many people have immediately jumped on the doom & gloom...

Good morning all. As a winter project I'm planning on installing the Reilly Motorsports Alterkation front suspension kit on my 72 Dart bracket car. I looked at Hemi Denny's HDK kit, it's a little more expensive and I'm on a tight budget. Last winter I installed Wilwood disc brakes on all four...

Found the #1 intake pushrod in this condition after a run. The rocker, adjuster and lifter all look okay, which surprised me. No indication as to what caused it. The mangled end is the rocker end.

Good morning all. Picked up a second engine for my 72 Dart this past weekend. It's a 408 built fairly identical to the engine currently in my car. The person I got it from threw in a complete set of Mopar Performance W2 roller rockers complete with shafts, blocks, etc. My question is what...
