63 dart v8 swap
[Nice job on those tight tubes, thats pretty sneaky! What about putting the #1 tube right into the #3 so there is no harsh angles? Just a thought....Im making some that are going to look very different, think LONG......][/QUOTE]
Thanks Moparhead64 & pishta!
This was my first attempt at making something that might fit & work in this little bugger.I was still kinda green 15 years ago when it came to fabin,.
Pishta, I am doing a similar "long" tube set up as we speak. I scored a used set of 67 ^ A body Hedman Husler for $50 off ebay. And again the passenger side# 4 & 6 cyl fit like a glove. #8 cyl was intended to go through the inner fender as well as the #7 cyl on the drivers side.
Not anymore. I am making it all fit without fender mods. I got a set of misc. 1 7/8 long tube bends from Speedway and started puzzling it all together. They have 3 1/2 collector. I will most likely connect them to 2 1/2 reducers with a cross-over and 2 1/2 mufflers.
Let's share photos if you got some. I will post some of mine tonight.
To all: Any thoughts on my pipe size and muffler selections??? I was thinking black super 44s but I'm not sold on them. For now this is about a 350 -375 HP 340 with a 3200 stall manual 727 and 3.91:1 8 3/4, but plan to push up this 340 next winter.
Also, I am thinking of letting the Tight Tubes go up for sale. If any one has interest, make an offer/PM. They are Jet Hot coated and pretty clean.
Thanks everyone!
