    OK, Here they are!
    « on: January 16, 2008 - 10:39:15 PM »
    The black car is the 340 that I asked everyone if it would beat the 5.0 kid down the street. Thanks for all of your thoughts and suggestions!
    The red one is a cloned RT with a 440 that I was never happy with. Forgive me, but some hotshot Chevy mechanic built the engine in it and kept the compression in the 8psi range; it never popped liked I wanted it to. Felt slow on take off, but boy! would it run past 55mph.

    WOW - Those are nice cars!  That black one is stunning.

    No worries - The previous owner of my Challenger (a Chevy guy...) had the 440 with 8:1 compression, a single plane hi-rise intake, and a 600cfm carb!  Everything can be corrected.
