OK. Then the answer is. No.I’m talking 10.99s with an 8 3/4 and a 4 speed

Don’t have that but modern technology is a thing so there’s gotta be some stuff out there to get me where I need to be I realize they had Factory backing but still even some of the parts they made back then are out of date by today’s updated technologyYou need to do a LOT of work on a 8 3/4 to get it to hold up to the power & traction needed to go low 11's or 10's for very many runs. When you are talking about the Silver Bullet, give some thought to what they had for support behind it. Have you got that group behind you?
That answer is incorrect clearly it seems it’s possible but will take work and if it turns out to be too much of a task a 9” Ford is a viable optionOK. Then the answer is. No.
It's not work that makes it happen, but suitcases full of cash.That answer is incorrect clearly it seems it’s possible but will take work and if it turns out to be too much of a task a 9” Ford is a viable option
I know half the people reading the thread probably think I’m crazy by my dream has always been to have a “fast” street car I can either race or cruise that’s why a 10.99 is where I’ve set my goal even if I manage to just hit the lucky number once I can still tell people I have a relatively fast street car and it’ll get posted here I know in the future there’s gonna be another kid in the same spot I am and hopefully he can see just because it’s not the right way to do it doesn’t mean he cantIt's not work that makes it happen, but suitcases full of cash.
I really hope to read about it here where you took a street 440 high 12 car with flat port heads and a 23 spline Trans and an 8-3/4 and run 10s.
Dream big. Do big.

Don't waste your $$ on iron heads!! Many cheap aluminum heads flow much much better right out of the box
I also prefer the dana over the 9 inch.
We all certainly know that the plethora of ALUMINUM heads will all 'outflow' the IRON's but...
'Back in the day' folks were running tens and NINES with 'all iron' non stroker engines...
So I am with (Lord) Byron (mad, bad and dangerous to know) on this one and going to 'go back to' ALL-IRON lol
I met a guy recently with a MINT Coronet with an ALL ALI 'KB-Hemi', just for grocery getting...
That mad me a little mad inside and I sold my brand new Edelbrock Max Wedge Victors...
So for me and (the Lord) Byron, its 'all iron' till we die, or blow-up trying lol...
408's are the new 440's... COOL!TEN seconds without breaking the BANK is hard to do!
I admire folks who want to 'keep it simples' and are on a strict budget.
If you already have a stripped out Mopar then lighten it as much as poss.
Get it under 3000lbs and you can achieve it with an ALL IRON bigblock.
A Mopar mate ran a 'mid nine' with a 408ci N/A stroker in a super-light Plymouth!
He did have standard port Edelbrocks, but still a massive achievement indeed...
I'm sure we can all run tens with 'one of these' lol
