And now for something completely different

I'm still in the process of building another 440 for the Cuda, but this was a deal that I couldn't ignore.
I drove out to Michigan last week to pick it up.
Not sure of the direction I'm going, but maybe a turbo or 2 ...

A friends first turbo car was a '70 Dart. Stock 5.7 Hemi, used 6.1 cam, Borg Warner S475 turbo, (cheap). First pass on 10# of boost with a blow through carburetor was 10.0 at 130+ mph.
He later did a 6.1, still single turbo, SRT Jeep exhaust manifolds, 21# of boost, still carbureted with no intercooler, (E85). Car ran 8.1 169 mph.
I went home and bought a turbo that same day lol.

I'm keeping an eye out for a late 2000's charger r/t to make a race car out of, and this might be just the ticket.

On my friends first 5.7 he found 10# was fine and had zero problems. 16#, not so much lol. The stock pistons and rods aren't super strong.
