4025# after working hard to remove weight from it.
10.60s @ 128 mph last time out in Sacramento. Best of 10.61 @ 133 mph with 1.75 60' numbers at Speedworld (RIP). I've been working on the launch since then and got it down to a best of 1.43 60' in Tucson. (sig photo from Tucson) I just need to get it to launch like that - then turn the boost back up to see what it will do. (and hopefully not break it)
It still has all the creature comforts it came with from the factory - AC, PS, Stereo... you know the regular stuff. Absolutely perfectly streetable other than the cab being a little tight for my 6'2" frame and having room for the rollbar behind the seat. Mainly a street cruiser that goes to the track when possible.

I posted on the other weight thread earlier, but I'll double up: Last time I weighed my Satellite with the old 383, it weighed 3600 (3775 with my 175 aboard). Since then: New motor w/ alum. heads and alum waterpump & housing. New wheels are a lot lighter than the steelies that it used to run on and it now runs mono-leafs. I'm guessing it tips in at just over 3500 now (???).
Best ET is in the sig, and it has run within a tenth of that the last dozen or so times down the track (which for me covers 2 years). I have not had much tuning time with it though, as every time I've been to the track in the past two years, I've entered races and had 2 hits, then had to dial in for eliminations. I think there's a lot left to find with some jetting work. It is a complete street car; has full exhaust, working heater, wipers, windows, horn, stock full interior, ect.... It is typically driven to and from the track. Last driven: YESTERDAY!

I built my 1971 Duster to be raced on pump gas on the streets of south east L.A.,that didn't happen due to health issues The car weighed 3450 lbs with me in it with two batterys and a full tank of fuel, it is a ladder bar coilover rear suspension car with a 400 stroker motor, 518 C.I., lader bars and coil overs, three inch exhaust to the rear bumper, full interior and so on. It has ran 9.993 at 134.6 MPH on Oregon non ethanol 91 octane pump gas through the exhaust with the air cleaner on To get the most you can out of any combination you need to make every part from the front bumper bolts to the rear bumper bolts work the best you can get them to, motor, converter,tranny, exhaust, ignition, fuel delivery, front and rear suspension and so on Test,test and then tests some more Two adages come to mind on cars and going fast, big is best, motor, tires exhaust, and light is right in every part, crankshafts,pistons wrist pins and rods, wheels and tires, total weight and so on
Mr.Cab Racing and winning with Mopars since 1964. (Old F--t, Huh)

I am in the mid 10's with a mild Hemi even with my ignition issue...Car weighs 3250lbs...When I get an all aluminum 604 built, it will run a little quicker I would think..Very streetable. I drove it to a car show this year, and down to the shop a bunch and to work one time...Neighbors are still complaining about that. Added a picture:
