You need a spoiler not a wing. A small wickerbill and decent spill plates. Jerry Bickle has a nice carbon piece that's reasonable and easy to fit. The car will drive better.
True.. mine is a spoiler (not a wing).. I used the wrong wording.. its all home made

There is a guy from Utah that used to come up here with a 70 Challenger that had a built W9 stickshift smallbock that ran low 8s @ 150+ in the quarter. Car had some fiberglass parts on it, but the body design was stock other than he put a clear lexan screen in front of the grill opening to keep the air out. I think I would try blocking the grill off first before a rear wing myself. Also a chin spoiler would be good too depending on ride height.

I have ran the grill blocked off for several years it was good for 1MPH in the 8th.. And a small spoiler Is that I had taken off of a Ford Ranger... I think They need to be closer to the ground I just Looking at some other options

Don’t know what front suspension your running , but getting it low helps a lot also . I’m about to lower mine a lot , front as well as the rear . These darts also have a pretty large trunk already so it doesn’t take much wing back there to make a difference . As mentioned data logging the rear shocks will show if the wing is adding downforce . I don’t run any rear wing at all , at least not yet .
....BAD A$$ STREET CAR.....

My 68 Dart made a big difference in stability when I had it even with the car sitting in the weeds. I wish I still had my Dart!
