hello Im new here

My name is jeremy. I just got me & my family a 1973 duster. It has a 318 auto and it is very clean (no rust). It has 80,000 miles and only one owner. We are wanting to change it into a 350 hp cruiser

420 HP @ 6500 rpm with the right combo from a 318 and the stock 904 trans can be beefed up to take 500 or 600 HP no prob but personally I like the 727 for its strength, keep in mind it's 4" longer then the 904 & always go with the 8.75 it's a sure bet

Welcome! Sounds like a good project. From experience, I can tell you that it will keep your calendar full and your wallet empty!
