31x9in hoosier slicks
weld draglites
hoosier front runner's
ford 9in 4.10's with a spool
ss springs with drag shocks
disc all the way around
liteweight buckets

motor
71 400 bored .30 over
forged alum pistons works out to about 8.5 to 1 comp
stock rods
mp .484 cam
906 heads with some mild bowl and port work 2.18 and 1.92 valves
edelbrock torker intake
proform roller rockers
hooker fenderwell headers

built 727 3000 stall and a custom valve body

i built the drivetrain for a challenger i had afew years ago sold the car kept my drivetrain found a cherry dart roller that i'll prolly be picking up. i'm guessing low 11's???
 
I'm thinking high 12's. 31" tire is pretty tall for 4.10 gear and your motor is very mild.
 
hopefully i'll have the car next weekend gears and slicks will stay until i get afew runs down the track. i'll prolly start spraying the 400 after while just to see what i can get out of it. if i don't get the times i want i'll break out the nos 78 440 block and build a stroker...
 
I am guessing mid to high 12's. This is my sons 72 Dart and it has a 400 with KB pistons for 10.4 comp. He uses stock Eddy heads and the MP .557 cam. Has Crane iron rockers with the RPM intake and a 750 DP. It has 3.91's and uses a manual v/b with a Dynamic 9.5 convertor. He runs 26 x 9.5 Hoosier QTP tires and the weighs right about 3600 with his 180 in the car. Best et is 11.55 @ 116. I really think with your low comp and the .484 cam you will not get near 11's and the 31" tall tire is a bit tall for the 4.10's. The 400 is a short stroke eng and will rev as it likes alot of gear. My sons is 3.91's but he uses the 26" tire. Ron
