12:05 Garage- ’70 Duster build
When I have some time, I'll provide an update on my weekend at Moparty. For now, a couple highlights. The only tool that touched the car all weekend was a torque wrench to check lug nuts. I got 17 autocross runs, 3 drag passes that were hot laps, and 18 3S runs. I'd say I put this thing through it's paces. My front tires may be in the shape of an octagon now after the 3S. And the information many people have been curious about, including myself, 1/4 mile mph. As you know, MPH is related to the engine HP and using the weight of the car the HP can be calculated. This stock rotating assembly non-VVT 5.7, with some hand ported heads and a cam went 113MPH! This was also bouncing it off the limiter in every gear because I'm not used to the low 6500RPM limit I have on it. I bet it would keep pulling if I let it. For now, I'd like to keep those stock internals where they belong. For reference, my solid roller cam, aluminum head 408 went 111MPH. So I can finally say, yes, the hemi makes more power than the 408!
