[On Empty]

Hi, I wanted to introduce myself. My name is Roy, and all the info that you guys post has really helped me on several parts of my rebuild. I have a 68 charger RT, 440 automatic. Just finished the second rebuild on the engine. I went with a 512 stroker kit from “440 source” and their aluminum Stealth heads. I am running Holly 850 double pumper on a Edelbrock torquer duell plane manifold with headers. ECI with rebuilt stock distributor. The cam that was recommended is pretty lumpy, but still has vacuum for the power breaks. The brakes would go out now and then with the last cam I had. Anyway, I’m glad to be here and Read all the stuff you guys post

Welcome from New Zealand. Nice Charger.

Very cool 68 Charger R/T! Welcome to the site.

Welcome from Alabama great looking 68. Only a few Mopars higher on the food chain than a 68 Charger, IMO.
