    Relocating the rear differential 1.25” towards the rear of the vehicle on a 72 Dart

    I have a 72 dart setup identical to what you are talking about, dana 60 moved back 1.25, caltrac setup with sliders etc. I drive it a ton on the street and a fair amount on the freeway and I can say I think it drives better than it did with all the stock stuff. Is your car painted green go...

    Cylinder head dyno shoot out

    Nice!, if I had the time to do it I would just follow through on our dyno but time equals money and I am short on both lol. It would be awesome to compare his dyno results to ours though, what an interesting bunch of info that would be!.

    Cylinder head dyno shoot out

    @NC Engine Builder I wish you were not so far away, Tim and I would jump in and help out. I have been planning for this same test for a while now and would only be missing the bloomer heads at this point. I have literally every other head you mentioned and more including a fresh 410 short block...

    Rear end advice for racing with a 4 speed

    A lot depends on the type of clutch you are running, if you don't have an adjustable one than check out the clutch tamer @weedburner . I went with a dana 60 @Newbomb Turk s advice since he figured I would be stepping up the power levels later and it turned out to be sooner so he was right.

    ~450hp from stock stroke 340?

    To the op I would set the compression around 10.5 and put a solid flat tappet cam in (something close to these two) and run it. HUG STL4246AS-8 SB SLD FLAT TAPPET CAM 242/246 -108ºLSA HUG STL4650AS-8 SB SLD FLAT TAPPET CAM 246/250 -108ºLSA Even if it falls 15-20 short of your goal it...

    ~450hp from stock stroke 340?

    Don't forget you have a ported tunnel ram, two 750s and a dyno to tune it. If you only make 450 then you quit the pull early lol.

    Mcleod Super Street Pro 10.5" clutch feedback

    I have one in my car and have been happy with it. I have been beating on it a fair amount over three years and it still looks good, not many miles on it though, still isn't completely broken in lol. I will be running it in a couple weeks with what should be close to 600hp and a clutch tamer so...

    You should have seen the group of them heading into renegade on Friday night before the mopar drags. We were behind them at the gates and we all just started laughing our asses off at the customized plates and corvette hats. At the end of the day I am all for whatever someone wants to do and it...

    I will be there tomorrow night through Saturday with a couple friends. Looking forward to seeing the engine out of my dart make some passes in my buddies race car.

    408 ignition curver advice

    Nice ride!. The cam is not the problem since my buddy has a 246/250 on a 108 ls flat tappet cam, ported victor, 10.1 compression in a 408 and it doesn't suffer from lack of low end in a heavy short bed dodge. His engine made 500hp/500tq and he has 4.56s with 30" tires, I think the 3.91s would be...

    Yeah thank uncle Tony the dipshit for going public with the Vermont tile thing and making it go viral.

    Thank you and I really appreciate the offer but I think we are good with the heads we have for this test. What we really need is a trickflow intake, I ordered one quite a while ago and the date keeps getting pushed further out, I think it is estimated to be in July now!.
