The only change so far is headman headers for the big block.
The 400's current T-Q will be swapped out. The secondarys are not working correctly. I'll be putting a '73 air cleaner on top. (The trap door in the base unit) Current tires are 235/60/15's on all 4 corners.
Once I'm done, It'll be back to the Cuda.
Sounds like a good plan. Don't let DWC find out you are dumping the TQ!

Well, I have 2 things to say about that.
1st, I don't give a F%&* what anybody thinks :flip: (LOL) and
2nd, I'm not dumping the T-Q. I'm going to put on another T-Q. Just a unit thats known to work. I have 3 hanging around. 1 is from a IH engine. I used it once on the Cuda. All I can say is WOW! LOL, nothin like a boooooming to end.

I know where you are coming from. I used to atleast get the ricers who would jump off the line unanounced and I'd smoke them a few seconds later. Now that I cutoff my muffler I don't even get that anymore. I know where I could propbably get a race or two but I'm not into getting tickets/arrested. I guess I'll be spending some time at the 1/8 mile track in Sturgis this summer.

"Now, with there dumb look on there face and not sure why or where the insult is coming from, I remark that there stupid (In nice words) and miss the obvious/can't read since it's writin on the car in 3, count them kid, 3 different spots it says CUDA!"

I know how you feel. I've lost count of the number of times people have stood behind my '67 with C-H-A-R-G-E-R written across the tail light five feet wide in big chrome letters and commented on how much they like my Barracuda or (and this one hurts) my Torino.

Well, to be fair to the boneheads my car has no badges at all. But c'mon if you dont know dont guess! GEEZ!

Torino! ouch!

Hey I'm Jacks dad too!

I'm getting my 340 rebuilt right now. Man its $100 here $100 there over the planned cost. I know that is the nature of the beast but it still hurts my bank account! Keep telling myself how fast it will be!
