    Not a Mopar, but worth sinking some money into!

    72 Cuda, owned 25 years. 496, with ported Stage VI heads, .625 in solid roller, 254/258 at .050, 3500 stall, 3.91 rear. 850 Holley DP, Reverse manual valve body.

    1999 Trans Am, LS1, heads, cam, headers, stall, etc! Love to surprise the rice rockets with this one. They seem so confident, then it's "what the heck just happened?"

    Hmmmm.....I know of a 69 SS 396 4 speed for 18 in decent shape, he drives it once every couple months. I can't make up my mind to buy it.

    taken me 25 years to get my Cuda where I want it, so don't want to start another project, but in the 60's,
    the SS396 Chevelle was the car to have!

    If you say so....  There were plenty of 325 horse & 350 horse 396's that were pigs... Yeah the 375 horse cars were animals but I saw a few of those get spanked too...  With the right driver & the right parts there were strong cars from every marque...
