I saw the new forum and decided to post a few pictures and links to the Dustbin Duster project that I did for Car Craft a few years back. This was a fairly well financed project so the car got a full Holley Dominator setup complete with a Wilson Manifolds modified intake. Sequential injection, 1000 cfm throttle body, coil near plug ignition, 36-1 crank trigger, cam trigger was a billet distributor housing with a Ford sensor. Fuel tank ended up being custom built with a Holley fuel cell type of pump. The car drove great. The factory dash was replaced with a Holley Pro Dash setup and most of the controls were switched over to digital. It was a big project! I did most of it by myself but I did have help in a few areas. I had to invent a few parts since they didn't exist at the time but that was just part of the process. There are a few more choices available now for Mopar engines than existed when I did the project.

The Dustbin Duster articles are still available on the Hot Rod website but the links to them keep getting moved so I put copies on my website in the Tech section. This link should get you to all of the Dustbin articles as well as some other magazine articles that I worked on: Tech Articles | AR Engineering
I sold the car shortly after I finished the project. The guy who bought got a killer deal.
The ignition stuff required designing new products. Nobody was selling a cam trigger for Mopar engines at that time so I had to design one. Same with the crank trigger and the resulting brackets and mating parts. This project produced about 20 new products for AR Engineering.
