Well, I got bit by the bug.
For years I wanted to build a car with my son. I finally found the car I wanted and I've jumped in with both feet.
It's a 1966 Charger, dark blue with white interior. It's a 318 2bl, SB 727 with a 8 3/4 that appears to have a 2.94 rear gear.
I'm building a 440 RB (1977). Standard 30 over, all cast, so pretty much stock. Putting on a dual plane RPM performer and playing with an idea for a Holley sniper... or just go with a 850. But currently sizing a cam (open to ideas... hint hint).
I just yanked the 318/tranny, fuel system/tank & exhaust. Now rerunning all the brake lines, replacing suspension, and going to put on disc brakes all around. A lot of work to do and I may have bit off more than I can chew... but it'll be fun and I'll get a ton of time with my son.
I'm going to need a lot of advice and direction... so please be patient with me. Also, know I search A LOT before I plan to post... so I'll do my best not to ask stupid questions
