That"s cool! Can't wait to hear how that does.I also forgot I will be involved in a power adder car this year as we are putting a Pro Charger on my sons Dart. It will be fun and some learning also. Ron
Let's just say there was another elephant in the room that night Hemi-its. LOL.There is such a wide variety of the perception on the answer of FAST.Then there are guys that have F.A.S.T cars
I do find it quite entertaining to see their factory APPEARING cars on these skinny little bias tires.These guys think outside the box and the appearance just might not be what they appear.

As far as the '68 Hemi, I believe we found the problem and it was running razor sharp for just a second or two before it ran out of petro. It was a night to remember. LOL.
Use Hughes Cryo RockersWell, I'm trying to keep piston speed down. Also 700 ft lbs is my appx self imposed "limit" because of the transmission. I believe that if I could jump in with the F&B direct port injection 3x2 throttle plate EFI system, that I have seen flow rated at 1,900 CFM, and up to 2,400 is available, in the 3x2 configuration, well maybe I would go bigger, but "the forum" has me worried about breaking driveline parts, and I am NOT giving up my 5 speed Passon Performance a855.
If I ever get the bug to make it mostly a track car, which would be the exact opposite of what I plan, well I'd still want to row the gears, so I'd have to look at a Jerico transmission, and any other "weak links".
I don't see that happening.
Remember, the reasons for the aluminum aftermarket block is mainly for peace of mind at the upper end of what a stock block can handle. That is major, and something I won't have to worry about. Along with that, there's the added benefits of 140 pounds less up front, and the WOW factor when it's hoods UP.
Rocker arms will be whatever gives me the best geometry and strength, and the least maintenance necessary.
And have been for years!My E body is still a street car w/ all the stock interior and body panels, except for the 'glass hood. Weighs in at close to 3900 lbs. Runs mid 9s at 140 mph naturally aspirated on pump gas and w/ nitrous it's been in the 8s at 152+ mph.

I went to Roadkill night last August to watch and take pictures was my assignment I was assigned by the assassins. There are some bad *** fast cars in DEEEtrOIT!As the saying goes. Don't matter how fast you are there is probably someone else faster than you are somewhere.
