Just wanted to say hey!
I'm a semi retired engine builder/Machinist from Avondale,AZ. (West Phoenix).
I just picked up a 72 Challenger that I built for a customer years ago, I couldn't her them sit on it in the garage any longer!
I've been after it for years and she finally decided to sell it to me as long as she had "visitation rights!" That includes street and strip passes once I'm done with it.
It's an original rust and bondo free Arizona car that we made into a street/strip deal. She was the second owner, she bought it in 1975.
I originally built a pocket ported 360 w/280 Comp cam, 650 dp, intake and headers/ exhaust, gears, 2500 stall, that ran mid 13s.
About a year later we went into it again: stroked/ bored to 392", street solid roller, full port/big valves, 11 to 1s, 750 dp, 4.11s, 3000 stall. Ran 11.67@116 thru the muffs on sticky street tires.
Scared her s--tless. Drove it on the street for 2 weeks, and wanted a mild FT Hydraulic 440 and 727/2500, 3.73 gears. I sealed and bagged the 392" and 904.
Now, I own the car, both motors, both trannys, gears, headers and all of the spare parts!
I did the roll bar, rear suspension, dual 3" exhaust, alum radiator, and fuel cell back then too.
I hope to have it de mothballed and running in a few weeks.
For Christmas, I bought myself aluminum heads, for both engines, and a 512 kit, single plane intake, roller rockers, aluminum pump and housing for the 440.
I think the 512 / 727 is gonna stay in the Challenger, and I'm looking for another Duster or Demon for the 392/ 904.
We gonna rock again!
