    Dart 408 Build Progress thread...with pics

    It's going in here. My 88 Notch. I know... I know... you hate the body kit. That's the way I bought the car and didn't want to waste any money on exterior mods, especially putting it back to stock. It's going to be a drag car mostly and a fun street car sometimes. It looks better than in the...

    I have a 6" cowl on the car right now. I'm hoping she's gonna fit underneath. Damn that intake is big.

    Well the motor is almost done..

    That's what I'm worried about right now. I've got a 6" on there right now but damn this Box R intake is a huge bitch.

    Here's some pics of the motor. Damn is this thing Ginormous! The intake can swallow small children. I can't thank my buddy Dan enough. He has done an amazing job getting this heap put together. Now we're just waiting on headers and she should purr like a wildabeast.

    Here she is, just the intake and valve covers mocked up. She is one huge biotch! The TFS Box R Intake is a monster on top of this thing. My buddy's an amazing mechanic. He's done a helluva job getting this heap together. Just waiting on back ordered headers and she is ready to get dumped in...

    Ya for me and what I want blower is definitely the way to go. We'll see when it all goes together. Hopefully by next race season the huffer will be on her.

    Like i say I would really like to go turbo. You just don't see them racing. There is 1 import and 1 mustang at our track, both go out first round everytime. Their times are to inconsistent. I can dial my KB into almost the .000th's . I don't know if the tremendous heat from the turbos causes to...

    Well the motor is almost done..

    I would love a turbo most of all. The only reason I won't go turbo is because this is going to be mostly a bracket car. Turbos are too inconsistent. At least in my experience anyways. If I were running heads up classes, which there aren't any around here, I would definitely go turbo.

    Sold my soul to the oilpatch. Actually having another little one here at Christmas time. My first little boy thinks the only cars out there are Mustangs cause that's all I ever buy him. The next one won't be any different he or she is gonna be brain washed right from the start. They're gonna...

    Got my first place.

    Awesome man. Good for you. Big is overrated, it just costs you mod money. Keep it simple, affordable and liveable and your set. Don't get stupid like some people do and max themselves out and be house poor.

    The block is the least of my problems. It can support well over 1200HP with many running in the 1500hp range. http://www.adperformance.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=194. Here's a Dart block in action. Dal Sangha and his Dart block 400 cubic inch twin turbo running 6's at over...

    Well the motor is almost done..

    The KB is still on the 96GT, I still have that car. My best run to date is a 12.2@117mph. Full weight except just the spare out. I'm building the 88 to be a track monster. I think I've decided on the power adder. I'm gonna go with a Procharger F2. I've heard the horror stories of their seal...

    408/C4 build begins....

    You won't regret it. Great choice. My 408 is going together as we speak. I'll still have to break it in but can't wait to get it on the road. Write a budget and see where you want and can afford to be. I am deep in this one but it's my own choice/fault. I wanted all the best parts, mostly...

    The car in that vid sounds awesome but what the hell were they doing? Just driving around the parking lot? I would love to see a pass made by that beast.

    Well my motor's almost done....

    I was actually going to go turbo but the car is being built for a lot of bracket racing. In my experience turbo cars are better for heads up classes. They just aren't as consistent. As for the Procharger I have two friends with them and they have had nothing but problems with them. Seals seem to...

    I've just about got the 408 together. Everything is speced and clearanced properly. Have 7 pistons in the hole, broke a ring on the eighth (pissed my off i can tell ya). Got the rings in today so should have the bottom end buttoned up tonight or tomorrow. Then just a matter of bolting everything...
