588 cubic inches. 950 horsepower, 860 foot pounds of torque, and a passon 5 speed Overdrive. All of this is going in my 68 Cuda Fastback. Streetcar should be a badass ride!

Time to buy stock in whatever tire company you are running!

It may be ugly, but it sure is slow.

Girls comb their hair in rear view mirrors and the boys try to look so hard....

sure hope you got plenty set in the savings for tire replacement as you are going to need it, LOL up

Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

I tried 2 intake combos. The top graph is a 440 3x and a 1350 dominator. The bottom one is a Mopar 337 intake an 850 double Pumper. That power really falls off with that 337 manifold!

You have 5 cars and your smallest motor is 500 inches, I love it! up

I know it has a lot of cubes at 588, but how did you reach 950hp with a street combo? Lots of compression and camshaft? What do the heads flow?

From what the whole lot shows, somebody loves three pedals.
Gonna be a handful.
Like some have told me before, apply your registration/inspection stickers on your side door windows cause that's the direction the car will be pointed at in forward motion. LOL.
