While the Cuda is out getting the top and headliner installed this was in the shop today.
Nothing major , Just a little bit of work.
Making some new trans cooler and fuel pump to carb lines. and fixing some leaks in the rear axle. and tried to fit some subframe connectors.


It is a real RM27 car , but born with a 383
It's one of the Mopar stock bore / stroke 426 crate motors .

Enjoy!

Subframe connectors fit , I'll just say was far less than ideal.

Nice! Really needs 2x4's! A good friend of mine bought a 426 625 hp crate motor. It only had 570 at the flywheel with the single 4. He went to the stock 2x4's and got 620 hp with no other changes.
