318 build #2 "cost minded" for the '74 Duster

For those that don't know, this is part 3 of the "Change and Challenge" Duster.
1. Rear end was swapped and the stance widened.
2. Front seat and carpet addressed.
those were the "Change" part. They are done. Now the Challenge part. We all know I could order a custom-built converter for 900, then add headers, then run 3.91's with a A500 OD tranny, then........ you get the point. No challenge, just a bunch of money and time.

This is how we are going to do the project, win, lose, or draw. Hopefully we'll learn something in the process, and somebody may find what we learn useful.
