Hello from Sweden.
« on: March 22, 2014 - 06:16:41 AM »
Hello guys. I am a swedish, 25 year old fan of mopar muscle. Don't own a cuda/challenger so i have to make do with my -70 (383/ 4-speed) super bee for now. Not that im complaining :burnout:
Alltough I'm not driving an e-body I still think there will be lot's of handy tech tips to soak up around here. For when the engine needs It's next upgrade etc.

Hope you understand what I'm trying to say, Never quite sure if I'm spelling things right when writing in english.

välkommen!

Funny as, the guy who sold me my current Challenger ('MISCHIF') did so in order that he be able to buy the true car of his dreams . . . a '70 B-body . . .  :thumbsup:

välkommen!

Welcome from Gothenbirg NE! Our high school motto is "Home Of The Swedes". My town has a lot of Swedish heritage. My Grandmother was from Sweden. Your English is way better than my Swedish, and probably better than my English as well lol.

we have quite a few Swedes on the board.  seems like there is a pretty decent mopar contingent over in that area.  This is a great place to learn, ask questions, and b bodies are always welcome.  and if anyone says otherwise they can talk to me about it  :dogpile:

Ok, nice to hear that we are some swedes hanging around in here as well.
I'm located in Falkenberg, 100km south of Gothenburg (Göteborg for people who know what the dots are for)





There, I hope you will see the pictures attatched above. Hope to get loads of fun out of this one for the years to come. Did a total rebuild in the fall-winter of -12 wich sort of didn't get finished until early summer of 2013. Will be getting a 3.55 sure-grip rear in the months to come, otherwise its time to put som miles on it during this summer.
Engine is 383 .030 over, with stealth heads, hooker super comp, performer intake with holley 750 on top. Msd throu out the ignition system. Camshaft is a comp xe262h. The future will see a camswap and new intake I guess, didn't have the heads when I chose that camshaft.

Nice to hear you like it. It's far from perfect, but a huge step up from the preaveous american cars I've owned.

The wheels are 17x7" coys, think they are called C5. Was allredady on the car when i got it. Sure looks nice, but traction seems to be a bit off if you want to get away fast and straight.
Got me a set of summit fast 5 with sticky tires and front runners used for a faire price so I can swap them on when I go playing with slower imports and old euro-junk turbo guys around town.

I have stated before that I will keep this car, improving it's straight line acceleration abilitys (drag car) and keep hunting an E-body and build a small block, 6-speed, handling machine out of that one. Thats the plan for my 50s crisis or something like that anyways. ;)
