    She sings a sweet song. Thanks for the melody. 4.56 gears oh my. She's a well sorted machine.

    Nice! I’m a small block guy but those 440s are torque monsters. Thanks for the ride along. Can’t wait to see the Dart sport back at the track.

      I’ve been meaning to ask you what spark plugs do you run in your yellow duster?

      @@smokewrenchgarage5420 I had NGK V-power GR4 plugs in for like 10 years. Couple years ago I switched to Autolite 3924 plugs. Made no difference in the 1/4 mile, but the 3924s are a 5/8 hex plug. Easier to get a socket on cylinder 5 and 7 depending on what headers you have.

    Love the racing footage, that Duster really moves out and sounds great. Hope to see you at 3N23 this year in Sikeston.

    Pretty cool! You gave me an idea of what my Scamp might do at a track. It's been 30 years since I took a car down the track, and that was only 1 time for a bet. Thanks for the video! Can't wait to see you in Sikeston!

    the sound so familiar I got sucked into the 440 performance idea number sounds cool 440 big block 440 yds 1/4 mile torque flite trans all sounds like speed BUT not my experience a ford windsor in a 68 mustang was quicker the difference being watching the tach for the shift point the 440 gives you lots of time the windsor you had to pay attention

    I don't understand 1/8 mile 6.99 ?

    • @smokewrenchgarage5420
      @smokewrenchgarage5420  ปีที่แล้ว

      1/8 mile 7.06 @ 96ish mph was the best I could get, it was losing time somewhere in the driveline, probably needed more cam/converter maybe a 28” tire would have helped but in my opinion with it should have been in the high 6’s with that 96 mph but I ran out of time and the engine got pulled and car got sold. Thx for watching.
