That motor looks amazing and I love the icing!

What are you doing about the hood?

 

The hood will have to be cut but nothing drastic. The scoop wont actually protrude that far out of the hood, or so my measurements lead me to believe. And when its all said and done the scoop should sit fairly close to hood level.

 

Nice vid bro, congrats on the start up. Now the burn out...lol

 

Speakin of which . . . new rubber anyone? All 4 tires and 2 wheels came today. But of course the rears are on back order until march!!! What the hell?! I hate to do it to you guys but i'm going to wait to post pics of the wheels until i have them mounted, at least the 2 i have.


Just a little wider than the originals. . .nobody will be able to tell the difference

 

put the two completes on the front and two originals on the rear.....ya see where I am going with this...lol

 

Good idea. Might just have to do that.
I'll be heading out later this afternoon to mount the 2 front tires and wheels. Mocked up the tires earlier and it just makes me even more frustrated that i wont have all 4 wheels here till march. The car is just begging to light'm up. . . .

 

Oh yeah! Your going to have some better handling with those wider tires. And we all know how much those tires in the back will be screaming for mercy once you get the car done.

 

440 source and summit parts came today. Just a few simple things. Belts, magnetic drain plug, alternator bracket kit, new billet dipstick and a fuel cell from Summit. Nothing too exciting. The box i look forward to seeing is the one with the stroker kit in it. That should be fun.

 

awesome job with the car, i need to learn how do all that stuff. well good luck with the rest of the project im rootin for ya!

 

Looking good bro, now get the cell in the car and boil those old boots...lol

 

Front tires mounted and balanced. I just need to get rid of the blue and red pin striping. Threw one on the rear just to get an idea of how she will look.

 

awesome! - usually not a fan of black wheels, but your combo looks great. i take it you are going to re-vinyl the roof black. it would look cool if you blacked out the hood...

 

Looking SEXY!

 

Hubba Hubba!!! Looking very nice. Keep up the good work.

 

i'd leave the stripes on the rim, but it looks good either way

 

THE REAR WHEELS CAME FINALLY!!! I'll have to roll the rear fenders a little but no biggie






Nothing like a little lip to make you smile. . .


If you look very closely you can notice the small differences in the rear wheel/tire combo compared to stock . . . . like the white lettering. . .

 

re you gonna take the stripes off the tires?

 

Stripes off the wheels you mean? Yea, i will. Just not a priority right now

 

That is a sweet ride! i can't wait to see it all complete!

 

Those Cragar D's are awesome looking on your car man, looks mean parked !

 

Not too much going on with the charger right now. Ive been pretty busy, but none the less had time to find this!!!!



Its pretty beat but still legible. I wish i knew how to decode all this garbage
?

 

Ya gotta like a broadcast sheet, good find.

 

thar ride is looking awesome good luck and keep us posted with the pic's

 

Let me guess under the seat? There should be a few people who can help you decode this.

 

No problem.

 

Quick question for you guys . . .
I went and got an estimate from a local driveline/tranny shop today and the guy quoted me $500 for a 3.25" custom steel 1 piece drive shaft and new high performance diff yolk installed. Sound like a good deal? There are not too many driveline places in the area and the only one i was familiar with went under last year.

 

that sounds like a lot, before you buy call a place called mesa driveshaft. they are in az but do awesome work and they're very reasonable - if you cant send yours at least get a price to compare

The Charger is finally getting a driveshaft. The shop is making an all new one piece and putting in a new beefy diff yolk. Should have the car back next week in time for the local good guys show!!!

 

does that back tire rub at all?
