Thanks, appreciate it! Hoping to make it as quick as yours one day, you seem to have found the sweet spot of performance/streetability with a traditional bb mopar build.
Thanks! Building a car full of compromises certainly has its challenges. I keep thinking how much faster it would be if it weighed 1,000 lbs. less like the Fox bodies I see at the track!
Your car is impressive as is. I'm sure you could find a few pounds to eliminate. I need to weigh my 68 Fastback, a friend weighed his dads 68 Notchback and it was 3250 with a 440 full interior, brass radiator, iron water pump. Manifolds full exhaust. Mine is backseat delete ,heater delete,glass hood Aluminum heads, water pump and radiator. I'm guessing I'm about 250lbs lighter than his.
My 68 Fastback is a tank. With 240 lbs of driver it sits at 3650 with all the factory seats in. That is with a full cage, Dana, Fiberglass hood, and lightweight wheels. It does have what is probably the heaviest small block you can build in it though. R1 Block with W2 heads.
Street car problems! Everytime I do something to shed weight I feel like I end up doing something else to add weight all in the name of reliability and serviceability.
