Arthur’s Duster

I might keep that hood and do hood scoop on one and set the painted one aside.

Plans are still Day 2 car. Like I showed earlier I scored an LD340 intake. I also have a set of 915 castings that I want to get ported, racing valve job, 2.02” valves on. The current heads have adj. iron rockers and I would reuse those. I’ll do some banana grooved shafts.
I already have some TTi step header I was going to use on my Valiant’s 340 that is at IMM with Brian Hafliger. He recommends the 1-7/8” race headers for that engine so I’ll just use the step headers on Arthur’s Duster.
I was also planning on 8-3/4 rearend swap but I’ve been reading that the 8-1/4 should be strong enough for my power level. Therefore, I will be planning on a purchase of a differential and some 3:23 or 3:55. The road is long in TX and OK so probably 3:23’s. No use in spending extra money but I do have two 489 third members and a 68-70 B-body 8-3/4 housing just in case.
