Very Nice!

What did you do for your AC/heater blower?
 
the Demon has a Classic Air unit on the interior side...blower is internal= more room for big block

hay guys ,,,, im trying to get info on this 440bb fitment in my 67 barracuda fastback, i dropped the car 10 inches with a 4 link rear,w/ a ford 9'' 411 rear gear,how do i drop the front end and compensate for the weight of that giant 440? any help will be great,,im building the 67 to sell it as a pro street car,with frame connectors,and tube front end,but the 440 is so tight,did i mention its got a 56mm turbo?
 
Wow...sounds pretty cool....dropped it 10"...got any pics?....sounds like it is on the ground...mine sits normal and I only have 5 1/2" under the headers...9" to the frame by the front of drivers door.....if you got a "tube" front end..can I assume it has coilovers?....then you would simply get a stiffer...more lbs (springs are rated by lbs of force it takes to compress it) spring to compensate for the "big 440"...with the all aluminium Hemis, I like the 400lb spring...for the cast block Hemi w/aluminium heads, I like the 450lb spring......hope that helps somewhat....still like to see a picture just so I can get a handle on what you are doing
 
and a 56 mm turbo is about big enough for a neon? We need pics.... Im confused.
 
sorry guys i have been swamped,the turbo is a 55.6mm rajay d-90 ,,rv turbo, i bought it from a guy who's father had it built in 1981,then passed away in 83,so it sat in the garage till i got it last year.i cant find the builders,and all i know is what the son told me from memory(he knows his shizzle) and its got 6k in head work,8-1 compression,flat top pistons,etc... reddragonrides@live.com i will send picks of her ,,,thanks
picks

As stated before, Weeb bought 2 Darts last year. One remains "under cover" but
the other has been brought inside for scrutinization and planning.
