I'm contemplating adding a "Hurst Equipped" badge under my 408 stroker badge on my trunk. But I'm a bit concerned it might be to much?? What ya all think?

Its funny this has come up as I was deciding this same thing with mine as it still has the 273 4 barrel fender emblems and have decided to paint the block the 273 red as it will as well have the 273 air cleaner sticker as this is a 360 stroker,Scat full forged solid roller, Ported Alloy heads fuel injected ! should be fun to see the look on those chev and ford guys scratching their heads.. Yep Show them less , let the cogs in their brains work.They never came with a 408. Why let others know. I like Strokers because they are sneaky. I would go with the Hurst only.
I was at a carlisle show and a Blue 70 340 Duster rolled in to the hotel. Under the hood it looked factory. It even had manifolds. When he left with the car with three passengers. He didn't need 416 emblems , You knew it was a monster. It idled like an old 440 Magnum. I thought that was the coolest seeing performance you never expect. and he didn't advertise it. said Duster 340 on the back.
4 spd. car Later that evening he rolled bye the lot in second gear with the same 3 guys in the car. He laid into the throttle slowly and just turned the tires in second and through third.
Agreed "Less is better"
I've always thought a Hurst badge on a non-Hurst model car was basically a "My Child Can Drive a Manual Transmission" sticker on a minivan.
It’s your car so do as you like period!
I have the Hurst badge on the trunk of my 68 Dart. It covers the holes that a dealer drilled in it for their badge. I had my car blasted, patched and repainted last year. I forgot to tell them to weld the drilled holes shut. After I put all my moldings, letters, and badges on, I still had these two holes in my trunk lid. I found a scat pack badge, but it was too small to cover both holes, so I used the Hurst badge.I always debadge my vehicles. If I had a hellcat it would be debadged. Makes a nice sleeper. First mod to my truck was take off the Hemi badge. But on a different note, I’m trying to talk my wife into putting a Swinger badge on her 15 Dart. I haven’t seen any like that yet
