my Low dollar 318 hop-up project

You are kidding right? My brothers Challenger with 513 and a 440, my 340 69 Dart with 4.88s Friend of mines 73 Duster 340 with 4.30 all street cars drove 30 miles to the track.
Petty much all summer long.
Never had a breakage we could not fix at the track an then drive home.
Mostly it was the 340 in the Dart liked to toss the fan belt at the track but never on the street. Usually on the 3-4 shift. Should have gone to an electric water pump drive motor but never did.
was that highway or 45 mph zone driving??

So, you're driving your 4.88 geared Dart to meet me, 70 mph on I-74, correct? :D
