'70 Dart 392 Project; what direction?

Any progress?

FYI, looks like the 6.4 intake does add power when locked in the long runner mode. Found people talking about how the intake helped even before they got the SRV switch working. Earlier in the thread, I speculated that the 6.4 wouldn't be any better than the 5.7 intake if the SRV wasn't working but it appears I am wrong.

No sir I’m typically swamped with work and hunts from Sept 1 through about thanksgiving. A guys gotta have multiple hobbies you know? :)

Plan is to haul the car to my buddies shop end of November where we’ll do the trans tunnel swap, relocate spring perches and possibly do a mini tub.

I did find a set of tires I’m planning on running on the rear. Plan to run the 305/45/R17 Nitto NT555RII. I may end up buying a second set of rear wheels and just swap the Nittos on for more traction as I’m seeing them only lasting 5-8k miles on the newer challenger. I can’t find any other tire brands or models in that size. They advertise them fitting a 9.5” wide wheel.

Thats good to know on the SVR runner mode! I’m still unsure on going Holley or Megasquirt but leaning MS for the system and it should be able to control the SVR module.

I’ve got my wilwoods and clutch kit as well waiting for install. Once it’s mocked up I’ll be inspecting the Z bar clutch linkage to see about modification and will make the call on a hydraulic TOB or not.

Lots of plans for this winter. I’ve got the goal of getting car on the road next summer but we’ll see.
