I decided to start a thread detailing the work I've been doing with my 69 Charger.
Though it has more of a stock look I suppose it's a bit of a restomod with disc brakes, overdrive trans and becoming more so now that I'm rebuilding the engine and switching it to fuel injection.
I thought the engine rebuild would be rather straightforward but it has proven a bit tedious.
It was a "crate" MP 426 with a comp cam, not enough valvespring and floating the valves at 5900rpm/405rwhp.
Now it's .060 over, ported iron heads, solid roller (raised redline on tach to match), working on getting it to 13-1 compression, Holley HP efi, coil on plug, flex fuel and E85.
TKO600 which I swapped the .64 overdrive out for a .82. Dana that I swapped the 3.55's for 4.10's.
I'll update as I make progress
