Wow, I talk too much! Wish I could make the Carlisle show again this year. Hi Ray, and Sue and Bill!!

[Bigcube]

The car is a full tube chassis but no lightweight, it was 2975# after a run last year. It's a 4-link, with a wishbone and AR-Bar in the back.  The front is a coil over A-arm setup from Alston Chassis works. It has stock radiator support, stock wiring, stock dash, stock doors, windows roll up and down, even the dome light works.  It's ran a best of 5.79@118 in the 1/8 this year and best 1/4 last year of 9.16@147. There is no power adder on the car. Motor is an alum KB wedge with Indy -1 heads. It's 557 cubes   4.440" bore x 4.5" stroke.  It has a Bryant Billet fully counterweighted crank, GRP alum rods, 7.100" long with a Chevy 2.2" journal.  It has Ross pistons, 15:1 squeeze with a .990 pin.  Cam is ~.750/.730, 281*I/288*E @ .050 on a 112 lobe center. Heads flow in the 350 range on intake and 300 on ex. Rockers are Jesel, 1.6 In. and 1.55 ex. Single Holley 1150 carb, Indy 440-3 intake.  Headers are custom, 2-1/8x2-1/4x4" merge collectors. The motor made 850 hp and 730 ft/lbs on the pump this year. Trans is a TF727, it has a billet steel drum, light weight and rollerized internals, A&A tranny brake.  I has a PTC 9.5" converter.  I have a big tire, 33x17 and run a 4.10 gear in a Dana 60. This year I've been working on chassis mods to being the 60' around.  Once i get that figured out I'm sniffing for that 8 sec slip

[67Dart383]

Hey Deadly Dart, pics       Dartsport and BigCube your examples of craftsmanship is outstanding, love the attention to details that is evident in the pic and performance , Thanks Guy's for the inspirations!      DAD     P.S. will let The Kidd list our specs!   

[bOb shingler]

Not so sure about that Bob. I'd like to hear more details about what you are thinking.
Remember that guy about 15 years ago with the 7 second street legal Vette? I think it was black.

[Mopower71]

my stuff is just a bunch of used parts and no need to post the junk i use.

And why not.
Shoot my junkyard 440 in my 71 Dart ran a 12.62   Not bad for a total package cost, including car, of under $2500

[bOb shingler]

the only new stuff in this motor is the block, piston rings and the bearings. everything else has been in and out of mine or someone elses motor so many times they are refered to as recycled or used up. 

[Ciscodog]

my stuff is just a bunch of used parts and no need to post the junk i use.

Right... whatever bOb.  I seem to remember your car went somewhere in the 9's with the brakes on 

[jimmyb]

[caper]

Jimmyb , I can not wait to see your dart when it is finished , the car sits really nice , hope you put an awesome paint job on it. Any color picked out for it yet? That thing is going to fly. What ET you hoping for? When do you figure it will be done? Get her done.

[jimmyb]

jimmyb that's going to be a very badass car when it gets done. hope you get to drive it soon.  it sucks when a build takes yrs i always start wondering if it will ever get done when i start something. good luck!! all the work will be worth it in the end.

birdboy, I think that it does suck when things take forever.november will be 2 years into this. when the parts take months to get because you are a smallfry it doesn't help.this place gives the desire to continue and finish lots of encourgement is needed along with deep pockets. Thanks to all who  always have input and share knowledge. Jimmy

    Let these Big Dogs run wild all season long!!!  Go out there and stick a DART in someone's            

[FastmOp]

Love the post and the replys
Thanks DS,BC,and BB for the replys. since were doing builds to I guess I'll let a kitty lose.
the build
95 dodge avenger home built in about every way you can think of.but it's a big tire, 4-link/strut, funny car cage, whole nine yards. I'm in the process of building this now, it's chrome moly, and I'm building it to 25.1E specs.
dana rear with 3.73's with moser 35spline axels and spool and 5/8 studs
bruno/3speed lenco not sure of the stall yet.
for now the motor will be the heads and intake off the Valiant stuck on a lower compresion 500" short block. With my PT106mm turbo and a air to air intercooler. Should run in the 8's I hope  turbo kit is home made by me. 2" headers to 3" Y to the turbo, 5" exhaust. Waist gate is a HKS 60MM with a intercooler out of a Cummins truck and a procharger blowoff valve.
Not much to add this thing, its getting closer but still a ways away.
Here's where it sits now

with This in the nose

[FastmOp]

68 Valiant street strip thats not seen the street in a few years
The car has the stock frame rails from the front bumper to the rear, even has the spare tire well. Bench seats front and back, somewhat stock dash, carpet, etc. Also has ladderbars and coil overs, strange double adj shocks on the rear HAl single adj on the front, willwood disks on the front glass nose and bumpers, lexan all but the rear window. rolling on a 10" rim in the rear and 3's in the front with a 4.30 geared 8.75 in the rear with a spool. Tranny is a home built 727 with a clutch or two added and a t/a rmvb with a break that I footbreak to be nice to the 8.75. been 1.31 in sixty foot breaking.
Motor is a 500" stock RB block with a 1/2 fill and main studs. 4.375x4.150 callies crank eagle rods ross pistons. home built using a muscle motors kit. cam is a lunati .750 roller that see's .722 measured at the valve  .280ish at .050 106c/l  heads are cast iron -1's that never had good numbers from a bench but are 2.250 intakes. the P&P was in them when I bought them at the swap but not the 2.250's The only thing trick on the motor is the EFI. It's the ssame intak I got with the heads at the swap but I converted it to EFI. it's a FAST sequential with WBo2 I got it used off racing junk and it's been a blast to learn.

I get it out to the track when I can and sofar it's been 6.16 in the 1/8 at 111.6 with a 1.31 sixty footbreaking. But I have slowed it down a little to race a heads up index class and I love it. Side by Side racing and you must drive the top end to.  We have a race coming up this weekend and I can't wait

Hey, so does mine, how else are you supposed to read the time slip at night   

Nice looking car!

[74' DART]

That avenger is awsome. You guys make me sick.

[Ciscodog]

My stuff is still in pieces too but I'm working on it again with hopes of driving it again this summer.  It's a .040" over 440, stock stroke steel crank, Calico coated bearings and SCAT H-beams.  The pistons are Ross domes that I coated with Techline CBC2 and the pins have been casidiam coated to prevent galling.  I'm waiting on the Hellfire rings to finish the assembly.  Oiling system is the Milodon dual line system with a Charlies pan and a swinging pickup.  I'm also running a 3 quart accumulator with the electric valve. 

The cam is a custom solid roller 'ala Frank' that is something like 270/278 at .050" and .688 lift.  The heads are Eddy RPM's with max wedge windows, relocated pushrods and sleeved bolt holes.  Frank did a really nice job on them, super mega ultra wazoo valve job and 2.19's.  The rockers are Crane 1.6's and I also had the shafts casidiam coated to prevent galling.  Once I get it together the rest of the way I'll call Smith Bros for the pushrods.  I'm going to try both the 4150 Indy intake and the 4500.  I have the adapter but with the NOS plate it puts it up into my cowl hood so I'm going to try both manifolds and sell the one that doesn't work.  I have a worked 850 and a worked 1150 dominator.  I guess I could leave the hood off, use the 4150-4500 adapter and put a nos plate on each side of the adapter - 4 stages of nitrous!  YAAAHOOOO!!!!  Nah... won't do that   One stage is fine and I have the digital retard wired in along with the NOS progressive controller.

Headers are 2" CPPA - having those coated by Jet-Hot.  Exhaust is a 3" Summit system with an X-pipe and Borla XR-1's.  Trans is done by "the builder formerly known as "mopartranman" - Mel.  T/A manual valve body, T/A 8" converter - went to 4200 on the last motor.

The car is tubbed w/stock frame rails, 32" ladder bars with Strange single adjustable shocks and a wishbone locator.  I'm switching to a motor plate and mid plate this time, so I can move the motor back a bit.  Dennys driveshaft... Oh, and a spool with a 4.30 gearset with 35 spline axles and a braced 8 3/4 rear.  I boxed the ladder brackets too and welded in some struts.  We'll see how it works out.  Fenders and hood are fiberglass, car has a 10 point cage and still has the back seat in it!  What else, Aerospace Ultra 350 fuel pump, cell, trunk popper, dome light, bump switch on the firewall, RMS coil over conversion kit... I also plan to use RMS strut rods too. 

Damn, I need to quit buying parts and get this car together!

[FastmOp]

Some NICE cars on here for sure, there FAST too.
Birdboy the index is 6.50 in the 1/8 ( I have 2 1/8 mile tracks within 20 min. of here and the closest 1/4 is an hour and a 1/2 away so thats why I race 1/8) You leave on a .400 tree and worst break out looses. I won the last race with a 6.503 Nice to get a bone from the track.
I forgot to say in the Valiant post it is 3140# with 1/2 a cell of fuel sitting on the scales with me in it after a run.

[Newbomb_Turk]

Maybe you guys can help me, My Demon below weighs 2800# no driver, full back half with a Dana 60 w/4.88 gears, 14 X 32 Hoosier slicks, ladder bar w/coilover shocks, JW trans w/brake and a 8"converter, motor is a 493 w/Indy 440-1 iron heads, flow 368 @.800 lift, I have a Cam motion custom ground cam, lift around a 760 with lots of duration, 1150 Dominator carb, indy intake, bottom end girdle, custom Charlies Oil pan, 2" tube fenderwell headers, and a no mercy on it driver, What will this car do in the 1/4 mile? I'd like to know and compare when I hit the track later in the year, Thanks, Newbomb
