I love it!! When is your stroker going to be ready?? I'm building a 520" for my 65 Coronet wagon. Is your engine using a stock block? You are inspiring me to make mine nicer now. Your wagon is amazing!!



Thank you for the kind words.
It's a stock block based stroker, with RPM heads. It's being built by HPMike on this site.
it's going in over the winter, along with the a/c.

Changed out the open 3.31's for a 742 case with 3.73's and a sure grip.
Adjusted the second gear band, changed out the destroyed trans mount( tail shaft was shifted over about two inches!) added a Holley 850 vacuum secondary carb, fire core wires, and shorty plugs. Runs great.
Can't wait for Carlisle!!



Just found this thread. Great project! I love wagons. Grew up in a 60 Dart Pioneer. I still have the cast iron pushbutton trans under my work bench So what happened to the 413 and trans? Seems to be a gap between it running good in July 2012 and needing new trans in Jun 2013

The 413 popped a head gasket, cracked the block, and heads. Trans was still good.
The engine in it now is a holdover till the stroker is done. The trans i had was a ball and trunion type. This trans is a '65 cable shift with a slip yoke. It was decided that since i was going to use this trans with the stroker, and it has a manual valve body, that we could get rid of the kick down assembly, and move the engine and trans back about 2 inches, and also set it lower in the frame. So to save time when the stroker goes in, all this was done before hand.

Keeping the Draglites.... for now...
Need to get a rear done first, i doubt the 8 3/4 will hold up. Then get around to doing the A/C. That'll happen over the winter, when i have more funds.
Shouldn't be long now.

Look for me at the dealership outside Carlisle.

Dyno day is tomorrow. Not much time left to prep things before the 3 hour trip to Carlisle. Look for me outside the dealership this year.

It made 550+hp and 630+lb ft.
With a performer rpm and a 850 Holley. I'm sure with a better intake and carb, it would pick up a bunch.

I'm going to trailer it, unfortunately. Engine isn't in yet. It's to much to chance with a fresh package and a 3 hour drive.
