My brother threw this 360 Duster together to have a street car to go to the local cruises in. We live about 45 miles from each other but there are a few cruises around that are about half way between our houses so we can meet at some of the cruises now. Its a mild 360 with iron factory heads he ported and a nice solid cam at about .540 lift as thats all I can remember about the cam now. He has 4.30's in it with 28" M/T drag radials. He used the 10" Turbo Action loose converter thats about a 3800 converter behind this car. Carb is a 750 vac secondary that I had laying around and gave him. He drove it to the track on a Wednsday night T & T and it ran 12.12 @ about 112. He said it did not hook but he did not take the time to get the tires hot and set the right air pressure as he just wanted to get an idea of how it ran. He has his two race cars so he does not plan to race this much at all. Hey at least if we meet up on the street younger brother (me) can spank older brother with my 63. Ron

Very nice/clean car and with a few tweeks, solid 11`s should be no problem.

Very cool! That gives me some hope of running 11's in my Dart on the motor.

I'm running a 390 with 11:1 compression, and a 236/242 @.050 cam with Magnum R/T heads through a 904.

All that white gives it a nice, clean look. I like it.

Just kidding about the street racing. I forgot I had this better pic of the car. Thanks for the replies as it really is a nice running and driving street car. Ron

Nice looking HotRod there. But if he is a racer I have a feeling he will find some time to tweak it and make it run better sooner or later..It is why I don't have a streetcar anymore. Had to draw a line somewhere
