73' B3 340 Duster pro touring build

Someone must have attached the words "Pro Touring" which magically turned some of the parts into gold. The Valiant, if it is as clean as the pictures suggest, was the steal if you ask me.

The Valiant was a bid goes on....so he didn't sell it for the $24K. It had a Big Block Stroker with a six speed and was really nice. The Demon blew my mind, I wanted to go up to the buyer and say "Hey I got this Duster almost finished, in case your interested in saving lots of $$$$"

Ross - I am contemplating doing a remote water pump as well. But my car has a 440. I am thinking one way to do this is to use the single in/outlet style (PRP sells one as well as Meziere) and putting it in-line with the lower radiator hose and using the stock big block housing. Then, in lieu of the water pump, just put a machined block off plate. What do you think?

It should work fine, I'm sure you probably researched it out but unlike the lack of Small Block adapters, Meziere makes Big Block adapters in case you wanted to go direct plumb and eliminate the big block WP housing, although you'd have to split two into four, So you way might work better.
