I'm sure it won't be. I just did it for FUN but some of these guys have forgotten what that actually is.Look, I'm going to try to make your guess the correct one!!! LOL. Don't bet your retirement on me now....
There's actually 7 folks with a 13 second guess, so some do think it's a reality.
In a perfect world with everything dead right, It could do it. Anything's "possible". The probability is low, but it's there.

You’re not the only one in that range. Don’t make this all about you sweetheart.
I'm not. You're the one who always has to put the digs in and make something that was fun not fun. You can be an insulting prick. Maybe try not to.

Saying in my opinion I’m flabbergasted is insulting but name calling isn’t? Noted sir. Noted. You have a wonderful evening.
It's the delivery. And don't act like you don't know what I mean. You certainly do.
Well, I hope the truck flabbergasts us all and delivers a whopp'n ET

Tim I may have missed it are you using the RV 727 or a different big block 727. If it’s the RV 727 you might want to switch out the governor weights in the tail shaft, those RV governor weights are heavy and really would shift to early IMO. Cheap an easy fix with the trans out, throw in some lighter ones to raise the shift points up for drag practicality. Something to think about I used a RV trans behind my 360 after a rebuild and trans go 2 shift kit and could not figure out why it shifted so early thinking it was my linkage I adjusted back and forth a thousand times. Turns out it was the governor weights.

It's a car 727
Should be go to go then.
One good thing about heavy governor weights is they give positive manual control of up-shifts. Works really if you set the throttle valve linkage of the transmission to fully rearward at full throttle. Upshifting right when the engine stops pulling is a good thing!

I have the RV 727, but it's got the RV tail shaft. There are some good eternals in the RV tranny's, but it's not being used at this time
What are the specs on the headers, primary[ø] & length avg., & remind Me what exhaust[ø] You have on there...
FOR 1968-1978 DODGE RAMCHARGER/W-SERIES V8 BBS LONG TUBE EXHAUST HEADER MANIFOLD | eBay .... and I painted them black
Is there a conflict in frame/crossmembers between W & D-series chassis ??,...they don't list them as fitting D/2WD, also shockingly low priced....those small 1.75" tubes may help save it with the small overlap, but length is a wildcard,....description is for 'high rpm'.....with 1.75" primaries on a 440???.....uhmmmm no...
I bought them because Joe used the same set on his D100.
That's a small tube header for a big block.
still better than manifolds and still bigger than the 360 headers
