It has TTI max wedge exhaust with cutouts. I have not ran it with caps open yet. Exhaust manifolds,intake is original 63. Heads max wedge. And are 286 castings original from a 63 dodge. Took me 8 years to save cash and round everything up. Even the shifter is a 64-65 piece. (squared off top on shifter. remakes are not like it). floor hump was from brewers performance. Have a RAM HD clutch bore and beck style. I like Garbage truck pedal. It suits me fine. Bought a radio delete plate on ebay for 15 bucks. And scored carpet for 40 bucks on craigslist. Put spme belts in the back seat from a 66 charger. They are black with a silver buckle. To match front belts. Was an air conditioning car. My dad found a dash from a 64 plymouthat a junkyard. I painted it up and we also got a non air heater box from the same car. It has been a fun project. It has been a dream of mine to build a max wedge car since the first time I read an article about a 62 in Mopar Muscle. 1991. I was 14 years old.Man time sure flys.I cranked torsion bars down a bit to give it a nascar kind of look.It has 3:23 sure-grip and 23 spline 4-speed.

air cleaners are steel remakes. Carbs are original 3447 carter. No chokes. Just turn on electric fuel pump. Steering column was swapped out and steering gear to manual steering. Hood bracing was not cut out. Stock hood clears air cleaner just fine. Original max wedge had the inner hood bracing cut out.
