72 Dodge Dart, 360 stock block bored .070 over with partial hard block fill. Custom stroker crank with 3.650 stroke using 6 inch SBC rods. Cubic Inch works out to 383 with this combo. Eagle pistons. W2 econo heads with mild work done to them. 13.9 compression. Victor W2 intake, Quick Fuel 1050 carb. Comp Cams roller cam and lifters, Norris stainless steel rockers. TF727 built by fellow mopar racer Clifton Finch, Turbo Action Cheetah MRVB with brake, 9 inch Dynamic Converter with about 4500 stall, MSD 7AL2 ignition box with 2 step and MSD crank trigger setup. TTI headers. Tory Shellehamer front suspension with ladder bar/coil over rear. D60 with Moser axles and spool. Richmond pro gear 5.13. Car really woke up after Clifton Finch rebuilt my transmission in late September. Found out the original builder didn't perform any of the modifications needed when running a brake. Very happy with the cars performance now. A lot of fun and so far very reliable and low maintenance. This engine is on it's 3rd full season and still going strong!

I'm sorry I now longer have that info. I sold the Dart last spring and I'm now running a 76 Plymouth Arrow.

Les,
do you recall who makes the headers for that chassis? I purchased a Daytona that's been back halved and am currently fitting it for a small block.

@pittsburghracer used to have a Daytona with a small block, he might be able to help. However, depending on the front suspension, and inner fenders, I think you will need a custom set of headers.
If you're something of a gambler, you could try a cheap set of summit or jegs headers, and plan on moving a tube or five, till they fit.
Considering top-shelf headers (TTI, Dougs) are nearly $1000, custom made around $1500 is probably not a bad deal, IF you can get em made for that. (I'm cheap. I'd try a summit set, and buy some extra bends and fire up the welder).

Nope mine was a big block and a tube chassis car. Nothing stock on that car. Sorry. Easiest headers I’ve ever put on and off in that car.

Thanks for the response. I spoke with Schoenfeld about a weld up kit.

Indy cnc's them in more than one size. I chose the biggest, of course! Flow numbers go over 400 intake, and the valves have been set at 13 degrees and moved closer to the bore center i believe.
 
Here is probably the lowest hp 9 second car on here lol.

1969 Plymouth Barracuda tube chassis. 2600 pounds with my fat *** in it.
32x16 slicks. 4.88 gears. Ford 9 inch. Ladder Bar. Steel roof and quarters. 8.50 cage.
Stock block 440
Stock 452 heads with ductile adjustable rockers
Solid roller cam of unknown specs
Eagle H beam rods
Stock forged crank

Turbo Action Pro II powerglide with Trans brake and custom TCI 8 inch convertor rebuilt by Fort Dodge Transmission this fall. Unknown stall speed at this point until I get it on the track in the spring. Should be in the 4800-5000 range.

Has C02 shifter, Delay Box, Nitrous (150 shot)(not used when bracket racing).

This last year my best time was a 9.98 @ 128. Kept hitting the rev limiter (7k rpm) about 300 feet from the end of the track. Turned out my torque convertor was bad and had a bunch of bent fins in it.
Still managed a 1.31 60' blowing through the bad convertor. With the new convertor I'm hoping I'll be 9.50-9.60's with the 150 shot.

Oh and I have a Hellcrate sitting in my shop now waiting to go in it probably 2024-2025 winter :)

Nice set-up. Are you running 2.14 intakes in your 452 castings?

Very cool my man.

What did you do for camshaft and is there any head work?
Tire size?

Tire size 29.5x12
Cam is Comp race cam made for BES (Tony Bischoff) not sold to public. Same with pistons, they are custom made for BES.
Heads Are Eagle heads prepped by Tony Bischoff. I have them surfaced locally every time they come off.

Sorry for the stupid late response. The headers on my Arrow were custom hand built for the Alston chassis. I'm not sure if any manufacturer still makes off the shelf headers for these cars.

Thank you Sir. I will contact them.
 
Not mine but it flies It's a Procharged Gen 2 Hemi in a Duster. Let me see if I can find a photo or video.
