    Can I see some pics of electric fuel pump mounting?

    It doesn't show a whole lot of detail, but here's where I mounted mine. It's in the little pocket right in front of the rear leaf spring hanger where the nuts go that hold it in. Fits in there pretty well and doesn't really hang down that much, so it's pretty well protected, though I think...

    Carb Suggestions for 5.7 Hemi

    It was actually a pretty cheap build to be honest. I was really just trying to get the car back on the road with stock parts to start with and then look into ported heads and performance goodies later. I only reused the carb because I had it and figured it would work for now. The trans is 73...

    Carb Suggestions for 5.7 Hemi

    So I've had my 5.7 swap project done for a few weeks now and back on the road but am still trying to tie up some issues. I got an Indy Mod Man intake (single plane design) for the hemi so I could do a carb setup and am running my old Carter Comp AFB that was on the 318 that was in the car...

    What engine setup (blown small or aluminum big)

    Wow, where did you get that kit? I was looking at SDCE and their different stage kits, but they were around $5000 entry level I thought. I was really leaning toward a blower setup like that intially, but I couldn't hardly find a small block Mopar kit, Chevy and Ford are everywhere, but Mopar...

    What engine setup (blown small or aluminum big)

    That's actually kind of what I had in mind. I was thinking I'd do a 408 stroker now and maybe toss a blower on it later down the road when I had the money for it. That was the main reason I was looking into a fully forged stroker setup. Honestly, 400-450 hp in the car now would probably be...

    What engine setup (blown small or aluminum big)

    Lol, nice. I've been looking over a bunch of different builds and think I may have finally found a bit of a compromise. While the low 11's would be great, I think I'd probably be happy with high 11's or low 12's for now and some more engine work down the road to get the times down. I was...

    What engine setup (blown small or aluminum big)

    Looking it all over it's hard to look past the afforability of the BB. I can get 500 hp out of a BB with just a set of heads and compression, but to pull those kind of numbers with a SB I have to pretty much redo the whole engine. I'd love to go boosted, but I'd have to go with a kit. I don't...

    What engine setup (blown small or aluminum big)

    Really? I thought when I priced out turbo kits they always seem to come up more expensive, though I think most of those may have been dual kits and not a single. I also got to looking at the weight numbers and found out an aluminum big block really isn't quite as lighter as I thought. Turns...

    What engine setup (blown small or aluminum big)

    I guess what the question boils down to is: what is the most affordable lightweight 500 streetable horsepower option for an A body? I know you can make 500 hp on a small block, but it takes a lot of engine work. On the other hand, you can make relatively easy horsepower with a big block, but...

    What engine setup (blown small or aluminum big)

    So everytime I look at my car I come up with a new plan for it. I have a 67 Dart that currently sits with a more or less factory 318 (4 bbl intake) and a 4 speed. I want to turn the car into a real ground pounder, but I realize that I will be driving it on the street quite a bit since there is...
