What mods were required to fit the engine? There are conversion mounts out there and I haven't heard any real issues about fitment. Mine however is not a factory k-member. I was already having a Gerst front end built for it so when I decided to switch to a 3rd Gen hemi, I called Carl and had...

On its best 1/4 pass it was a 1.31 but I went in fairly deep trying to cut a light (pro tree). I was trying to run the Modern Street Hemi Shootout race as well as test so I was doing some different things with the car. Over the entire weekend, the best 60' was a 1.289 and worst was a 1.32 I...

Had the Hellcat Swapped 64 at Mopars at The Rock this pas weekend and it was super hot, but super rewarding. Still sorting some small things out on the car, but decided to add a little "Spray". Results were some solid 8 Sec passes with best being 8.89 @ 150.9 leaving off the footbrake...

Thanks, the MPH was 143.85 The car had a 572 in it when I bought it and it was a 10th slower than this best pass so far. I fell in love with this car, I just wish it was lighter. I am hoping to get a 9.0 out of this combo. LOL, well one things is for sure, it doesn't sound anything like my 572.

Thanks Hellcat takeout engine: Lower 10% ATI Upper hellraiser 2.72 pulley ID1050X injectors TTI headers The rest of engine is 100% stock Using hellcrate PCM kit. I tune with HpTuners Cope 727 with T-Brake A reworked PTC converter that was originally way too loose and they didn't want to work...

I plan on being there with the Modern Hemi Series

Thanks It was a 1.28

Finally starting to get everything sorted out fairly decent on the car. Got to do some suspension tuning yesterday on a not so great track, but heading in the right direction. 5.81 in the 1/8th and 9.19 1/4. Not a great video but its the only one I got of the 1/4 pass.

Thanks One thing I noticed above is I fat fingered the weights... its actually LF 903 RF 932 LR 868 RR 809 total 3512 So even without me in it, it is heavy on the driver rear. The rear is all new with all new ladder bars and brackets. I helped a buddy who does this kind of stuff and I am sure...

I picked up a 64 Dodge drag car last year and ran it with the 572 until I decided to make a change. I run a Modern Street Hemi Shootout series with my Hellcat and wanted to run this car in it so out came the 572 and in went the Hellcat engine. So far car has been a few 9.20-9.30 passes pretty...

Yes, the car is the old "Dennis the Mennace" car.

Thanks for the data. If I get to run it Sunday, I might just tighten them up some more. Thanks. I might just try that and I am sure more seat time will help.....especially with a new to me-- car

Thanks everyone. I do think the comments about getting used to it are on target. The last drag car I had was a 6.0 1/8th duster and it was not as angry on the leave as this car is. Plus I have been running modern Challengers for the last 5-6 years into the 10's in the 1/4 but they left nothing...

My Canadian built 64 440

After a number of years playing in the modern Hemi arena, I picked this car up to have something old school to run as well. I only have three passes on it because the first two resulted in a little more front end lift than I expected and more of a problem was the landing. in slow motion, the...
