Bruning Auto Design: 70 Challenger Build - C5 suspension, SRT8 Hemi Crate motor, etc.
 1970 Dodge Challenger - built by Bruning Auto Design E-Tikit Challenger Concept: Stance is key with any build. Ultra-low ride height, maximum performance, and subtle body mods are underlying themes throughout the build. - A Solid Foundation: We began by fabricating an elaborate tubular chassis constructed around Corvette C5 suspension and drive train components. The 5" of ground clearance at the lowest point of the car at ride height is achieved without the use of air suspension. - Modern Muscle: Yes, It’s got a HEMI… An 800 horsepower twin-turbo charged 426 C.I.D Stroker based on the new generation 6.1L SRT-8 HEMI. One-off dual throttle body intake manifold, 321 stainless steel turbo headers and exhaust, aluminum oil pan, and new generation twin-plug HEMI valve covers are all hand-crafted originals. - Body Mods: Subtle changes made throughout: fender openings which are moved forward 2 inches and up 1 inch; chin and deck lid spoilers; lower valance treatments; functional R/T Hood, modernized door handles; and lighting improvements. - Industrial/Mechanical Finishes:The Challenger will live up to its “R/T” Road & Track MOPAR heritage. Show quality finishes with an emphasis on reliability and durability throughout the build. The ultimate driver that looks as good on track day as it does on display at a show.

The car was media blasted and motor & suspension is on hand and ready to go.....
 The wheels and tires in this picture are not for this build. They are actually going on the Chevelle in the background. Crate motor- SRT 8 6.1 HEMI 370 cu in 10.3:1 compression 425 hp @ 6200 RPM 420 ft. lb torque @ 4200 RPM forged steel crankshaft aluminum intake 6400 rpm redline    Twin turbos will be added, but there is still a lot of research to do....

More on the bellhousing/adapter combo... Not going to use the factory Corvette torque tube because of size limitations (Too bulky and would have to be shortened anyway). The adapter & carrier bearing will make it possible to use a slip yoke driveshaft instead. The bearing was purchased at a specialty race shop in Portland.
Hopefully the pics will make more sense.    Can't wait to see it with baer brakes.....
