Very cool combo whats up with the 33-34 coupe in the background




My wife and I bought that last year so we could actually cruise some. Its a 33 with a mild 440, 727 and 9" rear. Its all steel, not a perfect show car but we're not afraid to drive it in the rain either, lol. I have some pics in the street rodders section also.


i didn't even notice that, you know what i am thinking. that thing needs a blown hemi

Trust me its crossed my mind . One problem with that tho is that the firewall has the brake booster molded into it, there no way a hemi head will clear. It's nice to just hop in it and go for a spin, very low maintenance, that's what I'm looking for at the moment.

Heres a link to my 33

When I first got it together it had a F1R and a 12 rib belt. At 6700 rpm the belt would slip, 16-17 lbs of boost, it made 1088 horse. When I got it home I pulled the intake because of a leak and found that 2 pushrods where eating the balls off the ends of them, thus affecting the lash. So what it'll make with the f2? I'm hoping that with the pulleys on it it'll be between 16-20 lbs of boost now.

Thats awsome that your car is going this weekend. I cant wait to see it run. Should be a really fun weekend. There is going to be a lot of cars so I wouldnt expect a ton of runs. Today is always a long day at work!

I got to run my Dart this weekend. Friday I had 3 passes, 1st one just ran it thru first to check it out some. 2nd it stripped the teeth off the belt, and 3rd it blew the charge tube apart at a connecter. I got that fixed Friday night and got 2 passes on Sat. The first pass it went 1.34 in 60', I'm pretty sure it was still on the back tires, and blew another belt at the 330', went 9.93 at 120. When I got back to the pits I found that it had pulled some threads out of the head where the procharger bracket fastened, allowing the procharger to drop down about an 1&1/2" That pass I had shifted at 6000 because I was worried how much boost it would make. When I checked the data logger I found it made 25 lbs of boost. Since it was only for a second I figured I'd switch to my bigger blower pulley. We got everything fixed and made the second pass. It went 1.37 60' and 9.03@148 that pass . The belt stayed on and we thought it was good. When we looked at the logger this time tho it made 25lbs of boost at 6800 and was going lean at the top of each gear. I talked to Ryan at Steve Morris that night and we came to the conclusion the fuel pump won't keep up with that much power. I think for now we will slow the blower down to only make 18-20 lbs of boost for now. It was really nice that the suspension finally worked to, I only foot braked this weekend, hopefully it'll still work when I go to the t-brake. Just wanted to update you guys and thanks again to those who have helped me, Clint
