3.23's are what would work the best but they are not what you have. It depends on if the engine is stock or not and how much town driving you will be doing. Either set of gears will work and compromise a bit with both. "Daily driven", "cam and porting", leads me to believe it will be daily...

Stop blowing apart a decent car on a weekend and thinking you have started the restoration process. Take an assembly off, restore it and store it for reassembly. Then take another assembly off and repeat. By the time you get the car torn down you have it 1/3 of the way and you're still excited...

Too tall. 235X60X15 all around are an easy fit.

383 slots in the grille support even...

Oh yeah. I bought this one needing a rebuilt engine. I took it on as a challenge I think more than anything. I'm a pretty big guy and I had to make up some fancy tool combinations and techniques to get it done. Kind of Peed me off it was pretty much as fast as a stock HemiCuda.

I'm going to get a crossbow one of these days.

I didn't complain too much changing the plugs on mine. I swear everytime I pull the oil filter and it spills on the front diff and electrics though. Not looking forward to changing the cam and lifters either. I might pull the engine out when I do that, or maybe the cab off might be easier.

Looks great! I bet you don't know what to do with your free time now, after a workout like that it's hard to not go to the shop and grab sandpaper, it becomes a habit. I painted my 71 as well and know exactly how it feels sanding all those curves, closest thing to a straight panel on these cars...

I think my next truck will be a mint 80's Dodge if I can find a nice one. Something without electronics. I figure If I find a low mileage one for somewhere under $20k I'll be able to keep it running long after this new junk is dead and buried, I also don't want anything that big brother can...

Neat car. I always liked those 300's other than the wheels. Get tired of Duster race cars (although much better than Camaros).

Canada Post gives good service and I try to use them if possible, They've been going on strike just ahead of Christmas since the 70's though. These unions kill everything they get their hands on. I think their starting wage for no qualification, new employees is in the $25/hr range. Govt...

It would be rare with the sunroof. I've always had mixed feelings on the traditional 73-74 SE roof but at least it is distinctive and in 73 it was in style. You couldn't really tell it was an SE with the other option.

Somewhere I have a brochure and I believe that was a no cost option (so it is original), Not sure why anyone would do that though. Rallye gauges?

235X60X15 on my Dodge, I don't recall the backspace though (just off the shelf 15X7 American Racing Torq Thrusts). No rub. I've never compared the Dodge to Plymouth though.

Things sometimes turnaround. In my province a fellow started a parts chain and basically just kept buyin out all the little parts stores or ran them into bankruptcy. It was impossible to beat his prices so we all went there. He died and his chain is still pretty big but the prices are now too...

So: It was like a NASCAR "race"?

Cool project by the look of it.

Some nice parts there though.

I've long thought that's the right way to build a street car. 3.2's, stroker torque. Nicely done.
