  • If you're plum crazy about Mopars, buckle up! We're dropping a 500 cubic inch big block into a 1971 Duster. We're also adding a new driveshaft, high-performance starter, and programmable ignition system. Then, we take our bracket beast to the track.

    I don't know what you guys are doing, but that car should be running at least in 6.70s with that motor. I have a Duster with a standard 383 with RPM heads and it runs low sevens. Have seen many 360 small blocks run as fast yours.

    The Duster is my second favorite Mopar body after the 1970 Roadrunner. My roommate had a '74 360 Duster and I drove a '70 383 Roadrunner. 😉

      My mom had a 71 Duster in college. Sadly she didn't keep it and my dad didn't keep any of his military cars either including his 67 Camaro that he got hustled out of while stationed in CA.

    The Duster is the perfect hot rod. Just big enough to fit a big block, yet small enough to weigh in the 3000 lb.

      Agreed, whoever preps these cars for the starts are probably the real hacks. These guys just go along for the dough probably.
      Did you see the size of the bolt v/s the the hole it went in?

    That 600hp seems way over rated less the air was terrible there.
    A friend of the family ran NHRA stock, 3100lb car, 545hp on the dyno and that car was 10.2's in the high 120's / low 130mph.

    • @raceduster3049
      @raceduster3049 2 роки тому +3

      That car should be putting it on the rear bumper when it leaves with 600ft/lbs and 630HP.

    • @smilsmff
      @smilsmff 2 роки тому +2

      sometimes they dyno corrected by 10% then they go to a track to test and the air there is 4 k elevation or something , or just BS
