    Question about "high performance" builds, in particular engine longevity. If you have a sleeved aluminum block, all the better to answer my ?

    I'm asking here because I believe the "Resto-Mod" folks are more likely to drive in the ways I intend to vs the Racing Forum. Although I am having a Bill Mitchell aluminum RB block make the foundation of my 572 stroker engine, I'm going that route to improve my chances of longevity, reliability...

    1970 Roadrunner front alignment "specifications" to prevent "tracking"

    The alignment shop suggested that I ask the forum for caster, camber, toe in, and any other kind of "custom" data in hard numbers that I can pass along to them to plug into the alignment machine. They used factory parameters as a baseline, but I don't have any factory parts left in my...

    Fan(s) recommendations...3 inch depth max.

Warmed over 440 6bbl. doing power duty until then. South Louisiana and Mississippi heat and humidity. Just added Vintage...

    CVF WRAPTOR serpentine belt and accessory system..ANYONE HAVE ONE?

    I'm asking mainly because my first experience with one of the TWO Wraptor systems we bought back in October of 2019, and it just so happens that the one for my wife's 65 GTO was installed first, the mechanic (and I by proxy) have had a number of problems to overcome. I think that CVF should have...

    NEW from Dakota Digital: RTX series and the main differences vs HDX and the well known VHX

    I am posting a new, dedicated thread on the NEW RTX series gauge system from Dakota Digital, because over the last week, as I mentally wrestled with the decision to either keep the VHX series that I bought in 2016 but never installed OR put the VHX up for sale (for $700) and spend $700 MORE for...

    Dakota Digital gauges...VHX or RTX? Decision made!

    So about 3+ years ago I bought a VHX Dakota Digital gauge system from an authorized local dealer installer. I kept seeing the gauges on the back cover of my Classic Industries catalog next to the throne, and decided to get it. Well now that my car is in the shop and the Dakota Digital gauges are...

    No Factory torque boxes...USCT front and rear Torque Boxes ordered, What else would you do?

    I have USCT subframe connectors on the way. Since my 70 Roadrunner is a real V-code car, I know it has torque boxes. I think I know where the rear ones are, and I took pictures. I'd like someone who KNOWS what they look like to confirm that I have them, or am I looking in the wrong place? Rear...

    Wilwood front disc brakes only compatible with DRUM spindles??

    ...the Wilwood kit uses stock DRUM spindles, and the ones I took off years ago to install the Right Stuff disc brake conversion are long gone. Looks like no new drum spindles are available, and I hate the idea of buying used spindles for a very high end disc brake. Any ideas? I still have to...

    Decisions...Alternation, QA1, Control Freak...

    The focus of my front suspension swap is cruising and drag racing, not cornering so much. QA1 has their "stage 1, 2" kits, specifically for handling OR drag racing. If I recall, they said the only difference between the 2 is the front sway bar, which I could remove if it inhibits my front end...

    Drag racing suspension mods..suggestions?

    I am posting this here because I believe that you pro touring guys should have lots of suspension info. My 70 Roadrunner (440 6bbl, 4 speed, Dana 60) has a lot of wheelspin in drag racing applications. On my wish list is traction improvement and front suspension replacement. I am considering a...
