thank you for the pics. I knew these cars came with Dougs headers but I had never seen any.

Would a D/dart be legal for F.A.S.T. racing? It would be a great little combo if so.

that's a great question.....

It would open up a whole group of people want to run an early Dart!

I think the headers would keep it from being F.A.S.T. Legal.

Quote:

Under no circumstances will headers be allowed, including those cars that had headers delivered in the trunk.




There's been a number of people that showed documentation for a '64 Dodge with the Hemi and headers from the factory (not in the trunk) but the FAST people have disallowed it.

The headers are the only part that would exempt them.
Couldn't you run a 400+" small block in a <3000 lb. '66 Dart?
The intake and exhaust would be the bottle-necks.

That would be awesome. Even if its not allowed with headders, Could the hp 340 manifolds be used?

I was told by a Mopar maniac that races his car in F.A.S.T. that the D/Dart would not qualify because of the headers.

Those 6.95 - 14 bias ply tires on 4.5 rims that came on the car, wouldn't help.

Someone posted on here that Max Wedge cars would get to "upgrade" to a certain tire. Wonder if that would apply to the D/Darts as well?

Upgrade meaning a tire from a slightly later year, like 1970, not current.

Got to admit, that light car and a big inch small block would be a killer package.

if I'm not mistaken, F.A.S.T. allows:

cars with 14" tires to run a MAX of G70-14s,
cars with 15" tires to run a MAX of G60-15s,

& I don't think they are picky on some cars running 15s
that were not a factory available option?

& it's all in fun until you become a top competitor!

What/who has been the fastest F.A.S.T. legal small-block E.T. & MPH?

What about the headers? I think they were shipped with the car in the trunk. Would it be allowed to race in F.A.S.T.?

I was told that the car could not be raced in PSMCDR because of the headers.

Does anyone know what carb came with these cars (cfm & list number)? I have only been able to find "modified Holley 4160."

The carb list number is 3778. I think it's around 700 cfm's since it has 1 11/16 throttle plates.

I wonder if the new Dougs headers are from slip joint city like the originals?




Yes, the Doug's headers that are still sold today for the early Abodies have some slip joints, although not as many as what is pictured.
