499 is in the Duster!!!
« on: April 17, 2005 - 07:06:08 PM »
Finnaly got the 499 me and my dad built for my uncles duster we just got done re doing. The pics do no justice. Every single thing that we put in was the biggest PITA. Headers, external oil system,  motor mounts, radiator, headers, and headers again  :laughing:  Also I will get you pictures of the 383 back in my dads challenger. Its fully built and just needs the alt, and starter hooked up and its break in time!
Also another new fire up is the Road runner I've been buliding! just need to make my tranny liens and fill the fluids and then its time to fire her up!!! lots of stuff going on and lots of progress being made. I just put a new flip top fuel cap on the challenger and the TTI 3inch exhaust should be here by the end of the week!! :dogpile:

Whew, not too much more. Enjoy

Those Banks kits are wicked - we put in a turbo/exhaust kit in my Boss' Dodge and that thing will scream so hard you have to watch the RPMs plus it will tow a full trailor and car like it wasn't even there.
