If you really want to know what to do, start writing about your "favorite Roadrunner", and see what comes out on paper. Then create what your pen said.

"My 68 Road Runner weighs 3385# without driver.. Old school 440 shortblock..11.5 trw's-6pak rods-stock crank.. eddy heads w/stage11 port by Nick at compu-flow.. 600ish flat tappet comp cam specked by Nick.. M1 strip dominator intake with a 1050 carb.. hooker 2" headers thru 3-1/2" flow masters.. 9" dynamic convertor (4500 stahl).. 727 trans.. 4.10 8 3/4 rear.. s.s. springs.. 11 X 29 slicks.. Runs 10.90'S and 6.90'S" I'd trade you my TWO 69 B-bodies but you should just keep it and upgrade to the 493. My 69 Rr is a low option 383/4-speed and to me it's worth more modified and fast than it is slow & stock. Non-#'s matching means go for it. Last edited by Dean_Kuzluzski; 12/19/12 12:00 PM.

It reminds me of a cross between my Challenger (mid-10 second pump gas street car) and the original 440-6 '69 Road Runner I used to have... I like it!
