My setup is a stock 833 trans out of an E-body. McLeod Dual Disc RST clutch. Stock pedals, Hurst Super shifter III, Dana 60, ET Street (bias ply) tires at the track.

In order to eliminate some human error and be more consistent, I installed a roller switch on my clutch pedal. Very easy to wire up a cool two step rpm limiter. I push the clutch in, push one (momentary) button, and that "sets" the two step rpm limit. It won't come off that until the clutch is all the way out (launching). Then the relay goes to normal (no more two step) for all other shifts. Pretty cool. So it leave at the same rpm every run. No more finger co=ordination with the foot!

Seems very consistent, as I ran two runs with the same launch setup, and the 60' times were almost exact!

My dad and I both have our cars setup to spin the tires (limited) on the launch, to keep the rpms up and not break stuff. Clutch is locked 100% and doesn't slip at all.

If we get the tires to spin about 2 -3 revs (look at the video camera after a pass), that seems about right. I'm pulling the wheels and spinning the tires on the launch....kinda "early pro-stock like". Works great. Got to use Bias ply tires, because drag radials don't like to recover consistently, once they start spinning.

I power shift all the gear changes and that's with a 100% stock trans! No proshifting, no faceplates,.... Stock 23 spline. Can drive it on the street 100% normal, like the day it came from Detroit.

I'm loving it!

I've driven 12 second stick shift cars and in my opinion they are not as fun as a 9 second auto.

Maybe......but I haven't lost interest in my car.

i love the new challengers, but i dont see it taking the place of a cool old muscle car.

Thank you.........NOTHING takes the place of a cool and FAST old muscle car and that`s why most people/families have more than one car..........

Street car =

Your current car but with....EFI and runnen on pump gas, and DOT tires & mufflers.

---

Already running on pump gas and through an exhaust system. I run 93 octane on the street and mix in one gallon of 110 at the track as an additive.


I had a good conversation with my chassis friend tonite, if I do decide to let the Dart go we have a good game plan to build one the way I want it. It would cost way too much money to convert this car and it's too nice of a setup to tear apart.
