As some of you know I bought Jim's(Bigcube) Dart a while back and have been marking it mine.
It will have a new gen3 Hemi/904 combo now and will be a well used bracket car now. Just thought
I would share a few pics. I am starting to get a little excited to see how this thing is going to run.

It will weigh in less now with new dash. Light steering column. Fiberglass deck lid. Smaller fuel cell.
439"alum block gen3 Hemi, lt weight protrans 904, smaller radiator, 1 seat, 1 battery with a lot less wire.
New wheels/tires

As with most projects it has grown, but for me that is normal. This is the 1st new Hemi I have been into
looks like it should make some steam, but I know some will not like it because it does not have a distributor (Hi John)

A few more

A couple more pics

Looks good!

VERY nice upgrades. How soon till it hits the track???

Looks great! Best of luck with it.

This summer John.if I don't blow it up on the Dyno (ha ha)

Great, Im Drooling Again....

Can we get any engine build secrets or is that top secret. Lol. I for one look forward to results in a lighter type of car.

John it is no secret.

Heads are 6.4 apache with some Brett Miller love, 2.14 / 1.65 stock valves, PSI 1515ml beehives with tiny ti retainers

Cam is hyd roller 258/264@ .050 .636/.620 lift 108 center. Intake is a Tall Ritter that Brett reshaped the plenum some / ported.

1050 e85 dom carb, hemi 6 ign, 1 7/8 to 2" step headers

This is my learn about gen3's motor. I will do a solid roller set up and try to make a little more power later

Lookin good, Rod!

Thats a good lookin set up you have.. should run very well for you

Is that a custom ring pack and is that actual true valve lift with your rocker ratio. Sounds like a killler package. Goodluck

looks awesome, can you get a air filter on under the cowl hood?

Thanks for the encouragement guys

John- ring pack is a total seal # CSH2012 35 .

Forrest- not really enough height for a big air cleaner. I have the shorter manifold too that I may try at some point with a air cleaner that will be a
science experiment.

Looks Very Nice! Looking forward to results.

cool build all ways loved jims dart seen it at Norwalk years ago it went in the 8s

I always wondered where that car went. Very nice, what wheels did you go with ? The trunk stripe is on backwards, sorry but I had to tell you. Glad it’s going to get used. How long until you get to make passes? Will be curious to see what it runs.👍

and no mention of the mythical unicorn Mopar engine here??? That’s right kids.... you’re looking at a REAL 440 HEMI! The one we’ve all had to endure listening as some 1/2 brain 3/4 race cam nimwit told us of “the one he had back in the day”.... (unable to grab $20 bill off dash option available)

Looks amazing .. I have to say it will be another amazing car ..and welcome to the world of multiple layer fire suits and sweat...
