Impressive as always Ross. Glad to see the project goes on. One of these days I'll get back to the frog. Got a bunch of nice parts. Too many other obligations right now.
 
Those headers are insane! Not standard fitment I understand. Looks like plenty of steering shaft clearance too.
 
No skin off of his roof.

I usually check in here and then go over to the Babes and Bacon thread.

Make an evening of it.

Actually...they sort of are standard fitment for a B/E body with a small block, but I did remove the 3 bolt collectors and went with a set of Flowmaster Ball and socket collectors to gain some floor pan room.

Yes, there's plenty of steering shaft clearance as well as the starter.
 
Very nice. I bet I don't end up with that kind of room if and when I finally stuff the 440 into mine.:coffee2::salute:

Just start moving stuff around...like motor height and set back you'd be surprised what kind of room opens up.
 
Denny threw a fistfull of quarters into his engine compartment.

Only 3 or 4 of them fell out of the bottom onto the ground.

See you tommorow Ross!
 
Well for the first time the Duster is sitting on it's own suspension, looks like I need to raise the front about 1/2" and lower the rear 1" to adjust the Stance. HemiDenny and John (Old Man Mopar) paid me a visit to help get my front end squared away and kick around some future idea's.

I had to see it on the ground but didn't measure the lowest point.....but the fender is now at 22.5" when we mocked up 2 years ago it was 23.25" so I probably will be raising it up some and the rear really needs to drop at least 1".

I can't get my pictures to post any bigger than they are so it's hard to see some of the details. WTF happened

I saw Scruffs messing with your camera.

According to the picture properties, it is set at only 500 x 335 pixels....Check your settings
