I noticed you have a 472 4-spd 3.54 Dana driveline in your Runner. I have a 70 Challenger 4 spd 3.54 also with a MP 472 crate motor. It does not perform very well for 525hp/540tq at the strip. It is not crisp and almost bogs off the line no matter what rpm I leave at. I have tried everything I know how to get this car to perform. It runs 8.50 @ 87-88 mph in the 1/8th. It seems the cam/intake/low compression/pump gas is a poor combination. Ahy ideas?

I always notice as far as rear tire clearence,the passenger side has atleast 1/4 more room then the driver side. For some reason i always have to use a 1/4 wheel spacer on my challenger and my roadrunner on the driver side. Completely different rims too

mine is closer to 1/2" on the driver side. the rear ends are definitely off center!! i have 5.5 backspace in the rear, but want to pick up a 5" for the driver side.

hey, they all have issues, don't they

need some specifics, but probably better to start a new post about it. that way people will chime in looking at the post for the title, not the title of this one.
