Did you sell the other motor from the Duster? Didn't you have a low deck stroker in it before?


Not sure on the Hemi...Thinking broken spring again...not sure until I get it apart. I think it hates that cam...

The last motor in the Duster was a 440/543 high compression engine, and it ran....Fastest engine I have ever had. Sold it to an offer I could not turn down. Had the car sold twice at least....Then it all went quiet....Built a new pump gas 400/512 out of parts I had. Should run very low 6's in the 1/8th still. Predicting 6.10 or better. More cam, better heads...

And the lawn ornament looks a lot better in black....Stuff was starting to rust, had to do somthing, and all my painter buddy's are out of the business' now.
