    1968 Dodge Charger Resto Mod Cold Air Intake / Sealed Box Ideas?

    It's easier with a carb style intake manifold. I think building an air box at the front would be easier on this one.

    Modern seats

    ^ Yes, when I added seats with integral belts to mine I tied the rear of the seat rails together with thick square tube then bolted that through the subframe connectors

    Just some end of season maintenance. Drained the E85 out of it and replaced with a few gallons of gasoline and Lucas stabilizer. Did the end of year oil change and ran it outside the shop to circulate the new oil and fuel through it. Now in hibernation until spring :)

    I decided to drive up to Great Lakes Dragaway this morning and make a few passes. The car is 4,100lbs and 4,270 with me in it. Ran it through full exhaust and on the road race tires. First run I slipped the clutch out at 4,200 rpm and it actually hooked but absolutely obliterated the clutch...

    Thanks guys. The coupler is just a strip of rubber I cut down in length and width. Overlapped about 3/4" and glued together with rubber cement and also 5 "staples" I made out of stainless filler rod.

    Much appreciated! Pretty much the exact same pics but it's together with the rubber coupler now and ready for testing. Will test with an nos paper filter and K&N. Couldn't do it today as the roads are wet. Also trying to decide if I want to put the decal on it or leave as-is.

    Thanks guys! Lots of work later and it's done. Well, after the paint fully cures I'll install the rubber coupler to firewall duct.

    Not a typical 68 Charger

    Great work. The wiring alone is a huge accomplishment, that was quick!

    I haven't driven it yet, want to finish the induction first. Not sure what your goals are but my car may not be any good data for other people. It's really heavy, pretty low and still on leaf springs/torsion bars.

    Got sidetracked a bit as I received the driveshaft I ordered from the driveshaft shop. Put the Charger on jack stands since another car has been occupying my lift for a while. Driveshaft is 3.8" carbon tube and front CV, rated to 8,650rpm. Also swapped out the kyb's for Vikings.

    Dropped the inside edge of the top so the chrome dome would fit into it then rolled down the perimeter.

    Some test fitting and cut out the top of the air cleaner housing...

    Had a bit more time to work on this. This is the base welded up. Bead rolled with spoiler dies to drop it to match the duct.

    So I guess now is a good time to try and improve that. I started with a couple of universal offset drop bases. Trimmed the center, then the base. More to come :)

    Now must be integrated with the air cleaner. Looking at the current base, just doesn't appear to have a great shape for flowing air. Big step right at the bottom of the filter ID and no radius into the throttle bodies.
