Nice Billy. Are planning on testing at No Problem Raceway?

Collector 1

Collector 2

well if i finish the car at Cousin's house in Youngsville, la then yes, but may end up using Evadale,Tx closer to me here in lake Charles...there is a big race at Evadale this weekend..but it is 1/8 mile..

going to be very dusty and loud.....

My old NMCA Beretta had similar type headers but they turned out behind the front wheel, keeps the dust and the noise down.

Once they are all set and get racing you going to get them coated some time? Building headers appears to be a real pain in the azz.

well billy i'm guessing you're going to be running your plug leads from the underside huh? these look similar to my first set i made, that shock mount is a total pita being right in the road like that, hence i changed this on my car & made a fresh set of headers with plug access this time. good luck with your racing.

LOOKS GOOD!!!!

Yea, i am going to get them coated as soon as i can..i will pull them tomorrow and wipe them down and put some high heat paint til i can get them done.. the reason they are not turned back is the master cylinder is right there and i sure dont want that heat all over my brakes !!!!! if i would have tried to 90 degree outward then the wheel would hit the collector..kinda stuck.. should have turned them straight up and popped right throught the hood....lol... the plug wires will be routed below the headers, yes.. i wish i had changed my front shock tower too.. well in 2 years i am going to have a complete CM tube chassis built..this was my first attempt at building a Drag Car...live and learn...

Billy I really like the looks of that car. I like the body style and what you have done with it. I especially like the paint and the fact there are no stickers or anything on it.

Not so sure about the hoodscoop, but thats why its yours and not mine. I just think its a very clean looking car.

Looks great, another home town Mopar. Will have Torque Monsta Valiant at Evadale for 1/8 index. See you there, then off to Indy.

Thanks guys.. Spyphish, where do you live?? you are close to Lake Charles ?? i dont think i will be there at Evadale but my cousin will be in a 91 tube chassis LeBaron(mulit-color) and Brandon in his Red 69 Superbee, Jeremy in a red 66 Cornett, Dalton in a burgandy 68 Baracuda and then some friend in the Brand-X cars...lol.. i will be staying home to try to get my car ready for the following weekend..

Sure looks good..

Westlake. Dalton's Cuda was my SuperGas car to get grade points to run the new Spyphish at Indy. The Mouton's will be helping me build another Gaser with the doner car for Spyphish. Dalton should be all over the 5.80 spot Sat. with the Deathwish. My wife made me get rid of that car and hired Holt to build me a new one. Pretty slick, huh.
