    Anybody have success with dominators on a e body ?

    My 451 race build I made a run with a 1050 Dominator. E.T. was same, but did pickup alittle on bigend. So yes, its a win. But with a street motor? Most I found is one just uses more fuel.

    Anybody have success with dominators on a e body ?

    The Dominator series is named for that. Race engine builds. They can be sluggish and difficult to fine tune. Even a moderately built street application. With today's quick flow and DP 4150 style options? I would not recommend Dominator line for a street car. I can take it a step further. I...

    Could be. But if I get a chance to get up that way? I'll put some eyes on it. I'm sure there are some hidden issues. There alway are. Lol.

    Why our Old Mopars are the best!

    On engines. At least in the big block world. The upper head rocker arm shaft design on Mopars is superior to GMs ball stud design. It distributes stress more evenly across the head. While giving more valve room. This design is more expensive on production numbers. But too bad Chevy guys! The...

    Welcome. And that certainly looks to he an above average shape starting point for a build. Which of course is all good. Feel free to post more pics and descriptions. Like a shot of under carriage. Which almost always tells to tale of future effort.

    Why our Old Mopars are the best!

    For me is the body lines. They are more aggressive and pronounced. Thus why they are able to support wilder color combos. Mopar's drive train. From the 426. Thru the A833 trans which is unparalleled in toughness for a 4-speed. To the Dana 60 rear. Sorry Ford 9" lovers. I know they are easier to...

    Why our Old Mopars are the best!

    They were good for stock power. But you're right about frame and suspension support to higher end builds. GMs needed too.

    Got a quote for $25k for paint, Vinyl top and moldings installed

    Actually it was just the paint. It didn't include prep, primer, 2nd(s) coat, sealing, clear coat ect.. You know. What makes the job successful. Lol.

    '70 Challenger for $26k ask

    No. It's about 1/2 hour from me. Not in a position to entertain purchase. But thought I would just forward here to E-bodies.

    '70 Challenger for $26k ask

    Not in terrible shape. Mid performance base '340. 4-speed (Big plus) Runs and drives. Does need work as one can see. But I've seen worse asking for more. Thought I should throw this out here on E-bodies. https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/wsh/cto/d/stillwater-1970-dodge-challenger/7472943097.html

    Pet Peeves - Lets get complaining!

    Because was meaning to in E-body. But E-body is such a parts hunt site with little opportunities for general chat stuff.

    Mecum Cuda Sale Today 1/12

    I bought with that. The story was some farmer did the work. It isn't super difficult. I heard he began then doing this a a side gig. I bought the car for $10g. Ran it a year until 451 went tired. I rebuilt. Ditching the iron 452 heads for Brodex B1/BS. New pistons, aluminum rods and cam. Went...

    Mecum Cuda Sale Today 1/12

    I think a 318 original is a no brainer for a performance upgrade. I too use the stock 440 manifolds. They actually flow very near headers in near stock builds. (It's why they sound so cool.) Things change if one wishes to punch up the BB. My A-body '74 Duster has the now classic 451 stroker...

    Mecum Cuda Sale Today 1/12

    Besides. If GTX is upsetting? You all are going to hate my E-body build? Bought as a rolling body 18 years ago. A V-code '70 Cuda. It was so heavily modified for a Pro Stock attempt by a smaller Wisconsin team back in the mid 70s? With its original 440-6 and 4-speed long gone? I began a Pro...

    Mecum Cuda Sale Today 1/12

    No. I didn't buy to try to restore back to original. That was the point. This replaced a very simular GTX I had to sell many years ago. We didn't restore them. We built for better performance. The collectors in my opinion are missing the entire point of Muscle car ownership and appreciation...

    Mecum Cuda Sale Today 1/12

    Yeah. But neither are the sale sites? Because of the auction sites? Possibly. E-bodies started the Hugh spike some 5-7 years ago. And it caused a mad scramble for all muscle car era options. In the B-body world? It's Gen II Chargers. They sold nearly 300,000 of them back in the day. But today...

    Mecum Cuda Sale Today 1/12

    I believe the $30k-$40k are doing well? Everyone wants that price range. The problem is that junk has now moved into that range because of demand. I bought my current B-body (Quick walk around vid below) 3 years ago for $21k. Non numbers matching (But period correct) '69 GTX 440-4speed Dana...
