Re:MY LSX DODGE PROJECT 2 Years, 8 Months ago  
Jay, I wouldn't mind.. so long as you didnt get too crazy!

The way I see it is, It's a '70 dodge dart. It's not a super rare car and it wasnt a numbers matching car either. I wouldn't do something like this to a roadrunner or challenger, superbee, etc... But the dart is the bastard step child of the Mopar family. So it doesn't bother me one bit.

What about the Swinger Dart? LOL. Cool project man. Ought to embarrass the crap out of a few muskrat kids for sure. Is that frame gonna twist up like a pretzel? I'm assuming your going with a tuneable motor is not for resale value.

Re:MY LSX DODGE PROJECT 2 Years, 8 Months ago  
JD- The swinger dart was a nice one. Definitely a track king back in the day. As for the motor itself, I doubt i'd find a buyer for this car ever haha but no intentions of selling her, so resale value has no importance to me. As funny as this sounds... when I was a little kid, I always wanted a charger, roadrunner and my dream car being a 69.5 superbee with a 440 six pack and air grabber hood. However, growing up poor, I never believed it would be feasible. I came to my senses and figured I could afford a dart if I worked hard and saved my money (since those ranged from 4k-6k for decent car)

Well fast forward, to my later years and I've become a lot more successful than I (or anyone in my family) imagined. I could have purchased a charger or roadrunner project but I decided to please the kid in me... and fulfill my childhood dream.

Very nice Adam. Makes me miss my 68 Camaro and my 72 Dodge Dart Demon.

Re:MY LSX DODGE PROJECT 2 Years, 6 Months ago  
I've been lagging on the updates... but I went ahead and did some more stuff...

.030 milled 243 heads
Trunion upgrades for the rockers
Comp Cam lifters
Performance valves
new pushrods
dual platinum springs
232/234 Cam






Then, I went and got a Nitrous Express 10lb Bottle- Harris Speed Works Throttle Plate, NX Proton Solenoid Block, relays, arming switch, activation button, feed line and brackets. I can switch tunes on the fly (Nitrous or NA)
