i only chose the e-body as an example because i felt it was in the middle of the mopar field, not the smaller a body, while not being the bigger charger/ roadrunner. thats all. also, keep in mind, i started this as a general discussion thread, ill start a chevy and ford thread later if this goes well. i appreciate the insight from mr. angry, any real world experience, please share, even if it doesnt seem important, u never know what might spark interest or make a difference to someone reading this thread later. Personal example..
I was planning on using a kiesler 5 speed, then i read one small comment on a forums about awful service, so.. it got my attention, and then i saw more and more, and just today, i had a GREAT conversation with Passon, and its half the price, plus i could spend another g, get the gear vendors, go overdrive, save weight with an all aluminum 4 speed housing, fab up a hyd clutch set up, and still get the o/d. or just use thier o/d 4 speed like they used in the hammer, .73 4th gear. I like forced induction, always have, out of boost your running a very solid low compression motor, using less gas i may add, and for anyone who has stepped into a supercharger pushing over 8psi, or a solid built turbo car, it is truely awesome, plus it helps idle with a big cam, etc etc..
originally i wanted a TT set up, and i still like it, but to be honest, ive been doing a lot of 440 research, full forged stroker bottom end for 1300? the guy at 440source say they run em to 8k in drag racing, 496ci that can do 6500 all day... then 8:1 comp and procharger.. stephen durr has got it.. insane..
