Got my Charger running - 04/06/18 11:37 PM

Got my car running again after my SFT tool steel lifter fail, went back through the engine, did some more port work on my heads & the Indy intake, I went hydro roller & used the high rpm Morel lifters, you can set these .020 from the bottom out of the lifter plunger, the old SFT cam was 248@.050,.570 lift, ran 116 mph 3000DA,4100lbs, new hydro roller from Hughes is 255in,258ex @.050,,.608 .613 lift, also went from a 2800ish converter to a 4000 custom built lock up converter for my A518 trans from PATC , car feels MUCH better & faster, if the weather is good will go to the track next week,the 14th, will keep Y'all posted.

Low 11's with the A/C on! LOL! That's great. Good work. Just saw your video. I'm sure there will be some grumbling about your hood choice, but I think between the hood and airdam, that is a killer looking front end shot. Good luck with your project.
