Looking like you're ready to drop that chassis on a nice chunk of change.

Yes, please tell about the build.

Is that the MSD digital e curve dizzy?
 
The motor is a 340 Resto block 4 bolt main that has been stroked to 410 cu. inches. It made max. TQ of 496.1 @4500 RPM and max. HP of 474.9 @ 5600 RPM. That's a Control Freak IFS system that it rests on with a Tremec TKO 5 speed transmission and I will be running a Caltrac mono leaf supension with my 8 3/4" and 3:91 gears. The intake is a Eddie Air Gap with a Holley #770 Street Avenger that is running 72 front jets and 75 rears. This is a pump gas motor, I was going to mess around with some race fuel but asked myself why?
 
Now THAT's some work Kent! Be proud of your efforts. Did a double take on a couple of your pictures (almost a twin to my car back in the day). Welcome to the best Mopar site there is ... you're gonna fit in perfectly around here. :-D
 
I,ve owned 5 of these fastbacks in the past 10 years but only 3 of them were worth restoring. The one in the photo was delivered to me from AZ and the interior was COOKED but rust issues were minimal. I know the mopar purist would freak with all the aftermarket goodies I put into this car but I'm building it for myself. Thanks for the support young lady...
 
Purists would hate mine too. :-D You're a guy after my own heart! Keep it up and keep us posted on your progress. I don't have much in the way of leftovers but hit me up if you run into a problem find.
 
Nice! That's my kind of build... What kind of clutch are you using? And are you using a hydraulic or mechanical clutch linkage?

Thanks for sharing!

Scott
