My only plans are....

1. To get the Rocky in the tens...looks Like I have to take some gear out of it and get more fuel to the motor to do it.

2 To finish porting the 337 manifold and try it out on the 517 against the Max ported Indy Dual Plane.

3. To build the 440" small block W2 Tunnel Ram motor...even though I don't have anything to drop it in at the moment

World's Quickest Diahatsu Rocky (??) 414" Stroker Small block Mopar Powered. 10.84 @ 123...and gettin' quicker!

For the 2013 Championship winning Duster, we have a small list of upgrades in progress:

1-Wilwoods on all four corners got the fronts almost ready to put on the car, waiting on two bolts from Wilwood, and the rears are mounted, and the brake lines showed up today...
2-Relocate the master cylinder to the chassis
3-New slicks
4-Finish the tin work for the interior
5-Finish painting the floor and cage (in progress, along with a new seat)
6-Bigger fire extinguisher
7-Cut out rear cross sub-frame that's badly notched for clearance and install a new tubular one (Complete)
8-Fix oil leak
9-Tubular upper A-arms (almost ordered a set today)
10-SV1 carburator (got a quote for one, but found a used one for a good price, & sending the payment ASAP!)
11-re-scale the car

12-Put a real fuel pump in the car Probably a MagnaFuel 275....(Just added that one)
Whatever money & time allows

New stainless step headers, hopefully a new intake manifold and loose a couple more pounds. Hopefully 5.teens are in my future. Make the car go under 1.2 consistently in 60'. Pile up some win tickets. Go to "The Strip"....

To get out at least a few times, and to get out early in the year for a Test & Tune day, so I can actually spend some time finding some ET.

We'll see if my daughters Fastpitch schedule allows for this, though.

As of now I don't know What is going to happen for sure! Funds are getting low! I should be able to get new shocks for the front but any glass parts may be out of reach! If I don't find 2 ounces of gold my entire season may be in jeopardy!!


Need your rear end checked out? Contact Grizzly!!

Get this out of the trailer more than twice and actually run it down a track again.


Of course, that means new rear tires, probably an anti-roll bar, and I'll want to do the tighter converter it needs. Oh, and have to get the belts re-cert'ed. With a right converter, it'll need a window net, chassis cert (and that will require finally adding the diagonal down bars behind the seats).

Maybe I'll just leave it in the trailer for another year.

I am collecting parts to replace the 408/727 from my Stratus with a low deck 540 w/ B1 heads and a Glide. Should be a solid 300HP upgrade




Always thought your car was wasted with that small block, good choice on replacement, plenty of HP in that combination.

Car is at the chassis shop getting lowered 2 inch. To do this they built a custom sump, narrowed the rear and inboarded the leaf springs.
Whilst it was there it also had a rear anti roll bar fitted, 'chute mount, chrome moly prop, D/A rear shocks and Wilwoods fitted to the Dana.
Should have it back next week after being baselined with the 580 motor.
All we have to do after that is beef the 'box up some more and the 655 can go in
Then we have the 68 Barracuda to do, 'box is done and the motor for this starts very soon, just a warmed over 318 with mildly worked '308 heads. Should be a fun daily driver.
