I’m really considering taking my truck 6.4 that is running with a carb and a cascar intake
Adding the swap parts As needed
Pan , tti 2 inch headers aei engine plate etc (Srt cam)
And install it in my dart
And hope I could 7.0 index race with it
Which means it would have to run 6.80ish
Think it could do ??
The car is setup nice and would not be holding the engine back
It has went 6.40’s with 1.38ish 60’s weighs 3000lbs
With the iron headed smallblock (408)

Just thinking out loud here.
It would be close as the engine would need 450-500 hp

If thats all the HP you need you should be fine. That is like an SRT 392 if you put that cam in except lower compression. Your BGE heads that carry away the heat slightly better, better exhaust and better intake, properly tuned should have no problem makng 500 HP, the SRT does that with puny headers, MPG and emmision friendly tune.

My G3 Builder did a 67 Barracuda Notch back earlier this year race weight is 3200 , stock 6.4 Truck short block ,SRT392 NON-MDS cam, Apaches that were milled .030 , Car went 7.10 @96 with the XV Intake manifold and 6.81@ 100 with a Modified Ritter., I would think the cascar intake should crack 7.0. The Cuda runs a Twin blade carb and MSD Hemi-6 Ignition . they are running 5.57s in a Dana shifting @ 6600

On the dyno it made 515HP@ 6600 with the Ritter intake, I forget what he said it made with the XV , I think it was in the 450460 in the 6400, but TQ was crap.


1963 Thunderbolt 496FE 10.80 (still a work in progress)
1968 Mustang slow a$$ 428 FE
1971 Boss 351 Mustang 11.20@115mph
1993 Lightning 10.61 @ 129mph 408Ci A3 headed NA
1996 Viper GTS
2001 Lightning 8.99 @ 155MPH 5.4 Mod Motor
2009 Ram 9.65@144MPH 463CI G3 NA
2010 Challenger 9.91 @ 139MPH 408CI G3ci NA
2019 F150 (local dealer's Lightning package) ..11.90s
