A-Bodies...Big Motors / New Hemi Duster - FINAL ASSEMBLY

That'll be sweet with the 4.30's, tall tires and the OD. I run 4.56 rear gears in my truck with 28" tall tires, and a T56 with .50 OD ratio. It cruises 75mph at 2100 rpm - right at the sweet spot where the motor starts making power. It also gets 17 mpg HWY cruising like that.

I forgot about the scales. I will look into them, as I am curious myself. I'll check with a few racing buddies of mine.



'Tod' started with a '69 Charger when he was 17. 'Tod's' dad was big into GTO's, and kind of got me into the GM vehicles. The 'Chevy' truck came about when I was 20 years old, and it was about as close to a muscle car you could buy new back then (454\TH400\3.73 gears\etc). I'm no fan of Camaros, either. Now I've owned it for 20 years. I'm not really a 'Chevy' guy. I like many different cars from many different makes. Except Fords. Actually there are few Fords I would like to own, too, but Shhh...don't want anybody to know.

I've been a closet Mopar guy for many years. Actually I want to build a Charger next. '70 preferably, but a '68 or '69 will do. Gonna build what I want, and not worried about what anyone thinks - screw originality. At the very least it will have a 440 + 6 in it, but if I can swing the $$ to do a Hemi, I will, and of course a manual trans. I'll probably start with a 318 car with a smaller entry fee. No sense cutting up a 440 car or 383 car.

2 of my favorite cars in the world are a 1966 GTO, and a 1970 Charger. I got one of them, now I need the other. The GTO is just about where I want it. It may take me a few years, but there will be a Mopar in my garage in the future.




A local forum I'm on has alot of guys with 80's & 90's Muscle. Most of us have red interiors in our vehicles from that era (my truck has a two tone 'Carmine' red interior). Someone started the Porno Red and it stuck. Yours is a little brighter, but PORNO RED is still fitting.

IMO all cars look good with a USA flag bikini pinup chick in front of it! nice avatar Tod!
