Very interesting info with some very good ideas.

I'm using a older Mopar block, not a World block.
Tires....people will not like this but....I'm making this Dart look like it just left the Hurst assembly plant so it will have 7.75/15 in the rear and a 6.95/14 in the front. I believe I will have another set of wheels and tires on the side for some more street use.

Drivability is very important to me. I want to be able to drive this thing on the street and make it live but I would like a little power behind it.

I would like around 475 to 500 hp.

....there is nothing like driving my 1968 Hemi Dart around town and having people looking at you like you're nuts!!
