This should be my last year with the wedge.
I really want a 4.50 out of the indy heads. Then it's time to double the HP

That's what I thought.

Big Chiefs block, will accept all stock exterior components. Heads, oil pan, timingcover, water pump, etc.
you aren’t going to be able to use a stock Chevy head on a pro line block, Or a BAE block.

So, I guess my next question is, would it be possible to run say a Keith Black Hemi(if you could get one) or Indy wedge water block to the power and reliability(?)they have? Or does it need to be a billet block? Or a solid block? Dominator went on Facebook a couple weeks ago and was saying there is nothing Mopar makes that can make the power he does for the price point and with the availability.

what about these new Ritter blocks, could someone twin turbo a 440in Ritter HR1 block ? What heads would flow enough to be competitive ?

or let me ask this What would some of you build to be "street outlaw " completive if money wasn't an object?

I was watching a couple rounds of Lighs Out qualifying last night and Bill Lutz and Daddy Dave ran each. Very close race in the mid 4’s with Daddy Dave getting the win light.


1970 Duster
Edelbrock headed 408
5.984@112.52
422 Indy headed small block
5.982@112.56 mph
9.42@138.27

She said she was fine and stayed in the seat... one leg was over the tunnel and flopping around. Amazing she didn't get hurt!

I think she had a pillow behind her that fell out...

A couple episodes ago they made a big deal about getting her fit in Heifer. She was very lucky

I saw that too, wasn't very well thought out. JJ's bunch has hit everything but the lottery.

Nice pass, looked like it went a to b. boogie
Cracked me up when he called your car a Promod with 6-8 turbos.
Again, props to you for trying to get her out, and putting on a good show for us Mopar folks.

I DVRed the show because I knew your race would be at the end. Your car didn't even do much of a burnout? I'm surprised JJ didn't get a $200 side bet with you after laughing about your Mopar. You are pretty damn lucky that you weren't beside her. What was the camera crew like? Young guys? Old guys? Do they have an interest in racing? Did the director say anything to you? For a staged show, they should have some safety people on the big end. That could have been bad with a fire. I personally wouldn't have my car anywhere near those hillbillies. I guess the show will rage on until they kill someone.

The Mephis show is putting the original street outlaws to shame. I think it’s on its way out if the don’t make some major changes


1970 Duster
Edelbrock headed 408
5.984@112.52
422 Indy headed small block
5.982@112.56 mph
9.42@138.27

I watched a little of the 405 last night too. Interesting to me is that 5-6 cars could be at the top at any given time. Their ET's are much closer together than when they first started. I think that was their original goal when they race other clubs or whatever they do.
