Nice, that will be fun for her. Did that car race at firebird around the 2000 ish time frame? I don't believe the car was ever raced anywhere besides Walla Walla Dragstrip or Renegade Raceway...?

great work. really like the chassis reinforcement, would wonder how that would work without a rollbar and instead of the traditional subframe connectors? It would be ok, I've done it that way too. I just know that a ladder bar car is pretty hard on that mount...

Forest you do really nice work. Will it be a SB? No I have a 440 in my 1970 Dodge Dart. I am 5.7 hemi swapping it and using that 440 in her Duster. The 440 has the Pro Comp heads, Lunati Voodoo .533 cam, M1 single plane, 750 double pumper, 2" fenderwell headers and a 9.5" 4,000 rpm stall converter. I think it will run 11.50 ish...? I'll have to slow it down a touch to run Sportsman for now.

I'll have to slow it down a touch to run Sportsman for now. I ran a similar setup in my duster for a good many years. 440 with stock cast flat tops pistons, steel 915 heads that my dad did some work on at home, Mopar .533 cam, an old wieand intake, Holley 750 dp, 5000 stall convertor, hooker fender well headers and had a Dana with 4.56s and a 30" tire. It weighed 3250 with me in it and usually ran 11.40-11.60s
