No crazy winter upgrades, swapped some custom valved afco bgx rear shocks on, and switched to the new holley smart coils for the hemi to fire both plugs. Hopefully get to the track next month, picked up another project, and I’d rather have it done first. may start another thread specifically for it. It’s getting a stock 5.7 and a 727, and holley efi, and I’m going to try and go 9s with it for as cheap as possible, hopefully under $7500 or so. Just need a wagon to complete the trifecta!  If I could find a ratty old brown 80 wagon I’d probably sell my hemi d100 to make room if I had to 😂

Have the afcos revalved, easy fix when they are sold new if oyu do not call and talk to them they have "generic" valving in them. The big advantage to that shock is all the big name shock guys can revalve them as well as Afco.

4.96 142 Currently at 3610lb race weight; I took the glass rear bumper off and put the steel back on so it’s about 60lb heavier. Stock 5.7 block, stock 6.4 heads with comp springs, good crank rods and piston. 1.80 glide. And two $800 turbos. Uncle Rico’s Dana 60 out of a van cut down with some caltracs. Stock goofy transverse torsion bars with Viking DA shocks. Might try and get out one more time this year and go a little faster.
