My first 440 build for my 74 Dart
There are a lot opinions on here and none are wrong. Some just more right than others for what you are trying to do. Tunnel ram is cool. Not sure how practical when it is sticking out of the hood. I encountered a bunch of nonsense in trying to put together a stock appearing 72 with a 440. Car is burning tires through 2nd gear without trying hard. At some point the 4:10 gears will need to be replaced and the car will be tuned and adjusted for everything from suspension, take off, gearing, tire size, etc. The motor is a 72 .060 over at just under 10:1 compression. Big valves, roller rocker, decent cam. Full TTI exhaust. Look over the build and I will be glad to tell you where I had to go back and address things I did not think of.
