NICE!.............Tell us more.........weight, heads cam etc........... 
1970 duster, 2600+ pounds, a set of Edelbrock heads he ported himself while Tom Hemphile gave him pointers, SOLID LIFTER cam, tunnel ram with two 750 holley, powerglide with 1.80 gear set, 14-32's, not sure on cubic inch but its under 500 and a stock block. He's almost always in the 8.80-9.00's at an average 1400-2400 corrected alt track.
BAD AZZ....................How fast would my 9.79 translate to at that weight by chance.......... 
The old 100 pounds equals .010 works out pretty good if the car hooks.
I know of a black 70 Cuda( about same weight) that ran 9.0x, with just BIBA heads( doubt they flow as much air as big block eddies do) with a 3.79 crank that he raced forever. Many guys on here saw it run as he raced at the Mopar events with it for a long time. Currently has a w8 smallblock in it and has been at least 8.70's, if not quicker as I haven't seen it yet this season, but I am sure it will be at Norwalk, and was probably at Indy with it.

This is the Father of the guy with the red duster. He has gone 8.60's with B1BS heads and races at PRP every week.

Will I'll have to offer my when I ran a small block W2 340 in Denver it would beat most of the big block Mopars back in the 80's Fast forward to 2000 Dakota pickup super charged 360 best it ran 10.60 at 125 mph before it went boom. Put in a big block ran 10.12 at 135 it had a mild cam in it at the time say what you want but when you have lot's of cubes with very little head flow makes for a disappointing outcome. Still have that same big block just more cam runs 8.69 in my car  I under stand the small block verses big block been on both sides but will stay with the big block.
best so far 8.53 @ 158.59 MPH 60'1.240

I think I will stick with my BB. Was a SB guy back in the 80's-90's when we had few choices for good heads. So the best options I saw was a SB with W2's. The early 90's we switched to our first B1 deal and it ran well, well enough to make a few paperweights out of stock blocks. BUt I will say I have been a BB guy since the mid 90's, not that I wont go back but would take something special to make that happen, or a switch to Comp Eliminator which I don't really see in my future since I don't play the lottery.

I gotta say I love them both but it kills me with the Daytona sitting here and the 572 sitting on the engine stand. It only had 10 passes on it in 2010 when I wrecked the Daytona so i will freshen it up this Winter and install the B1 heads and put it in either the Daytona if I finish it or the Duster. The Duster is only certified to 8.50 with no updates in the works. I bought a alcohol system a few months ago so it may be put to use. I haven't payed for race gas since 2010 an it would kill me to pay that much to race every week.

I was a guest at a track rental by a local car club. My '66 was running low 15's and a guy with a '70 Nova called me out. He had been bragging about the LT-1 he had. I put a gate job on him and beat him about 5 cars. He came up in the pits and told me I had a good running 318. He crapped his pants when a buddy opened my hood for him and showed him the Slant. To add insult to injury he hoped in his car and it wouldn't turn over. No one has seen him since.

The car and motor I built for my Mom is a all steel, all interior Duster 366" pump gas that runs 11.0's. All the Mopar guys around here are stuck in the past and none of them ever really ask me about my combos.
Well im not stuck in the past, please do tell about this combo.
