Slowly the plans for the Road Ruiner have come together. It started at Norwalk Ohio, Meeting GREAT people and having fun. I got to do this. So I had a spare 440 and bought a Road Runner shell It started simply but kinda grew to be more than planned. "well since you are planning on going faster in the future, we may as well: - add a dana - upgrade the fuel system - add a 10 point cage What was I thinking... Procharger! - bought a used D1X Procharger on Ebay, (and I saw how nice the Stig Jrs Road Runner ran) - Since you are boosting , should go to EFI - A mega block is a good idea. Sod the 440 bought a 500 inch - Better upgrade the fuel system again - add a motor plate - etc etc Having collected a lot of parts and the street strip car is coming together. This is where it sits today and I will work backwards. (I am glad I have a great and tolerant wife)

Sounds like you are having fun. At least you are smart enough to make changes AS you build. I rethink everything AFTER I`m done. Keep us posted.

Here is the Air Plumbing and EFI mocked up Using a victor intake predrilled for EFI. I changed my mind on the elbow for the throttle body and got a low profile version. It was too short and I had to add a spacer to fit between the throttle body and the intake. The whole set up fits almost under a stock hood. You can see the blow-off mounted to the intercooler. Fiberglass Bumpers (with a ton of work to make the right, ) I will open up the area where the license plate normally goes for additional air flow.

Looking awesome. Robbie, I am thinking about starting to collect parts. Where did you find your mounting brackets? What compression are your slugs?
