Dang, I'm happy for you Treblig!
What gears are in it now? I almost went 4.10's, but opted for some 3.91's because of the 2.76 first in the 200R4. I'm not sure what ratio that would be equal to using the 727's first gear ratio, which is around 2.50-to-1 or something.
Heck, the SCT Tuned 196K mile long block with 90 psi in the #2 cylinder 140'ish in the rest, 727 with mild stall converter, a smallish Hughes cam & 1100 valves springs I have in it now spun the rear 255 60R15 Radial TA tires with 3.23's out of hole at full throttle and chirped them into second a few feet at around 55- 60 mph.
Last month, I put some rather tall 275 60R15 Nitto Drag Radials and shhhh, some custom-fitted, summit slapper bars on the rear. Don't worry Mopar purists, I painted them flat black so you can't really see them. It hooks up hard now with 5 to 10 feet of spin with the current engine trans combo. Ride quality hasn't suffered either.
I'm sure with 3.91's, a 2.76 first gear, a 3000 stall converter and 500 something HP; It's going to annihilate the rear tires in first and second, which of course makes it significantly more fun to drive, especially on week long road trips with the .67 overdrive and lock-up converter.
As almost any Mopar guy can tell, this car needs a 408 stroker with around 500hp and 3.91's with an overdrive. It's a heavy car weighing around 3000 lbs! It's only running high 13's or low 14's with the worn out 5.9 EFI. Besides, it puffs out some blue smoke on the right side at full throttle. It's embarrassing!
The sun didn't cooperate to well for the pictures, but the tires fill the wheel wells without rubbing. I'll try to get a better shot of the rear later in the early evening when the lighting is better.
