And here's the current condition:
Sone notes about these last pics:
The grey front end is all fiberglass and is being joined with a fg valance and bumper in the near future.
The 512 Max Wedge bullet is about half aluminum (Heads, intake & water pump) and the heavy exhaust manifolds have been replaced with 2.125" TTI steppped headers. It weighs about the same as a stock SB Mopar engine now.
One of my major goals was to get as much weight off the car as possible. I'm shooting for a 3000lb total weight (stock is about 3600lbs) car when finished. Most of that is coming from the nose of the car. These E-bodies have a nasty tendancy to understeer when pushed hard. It becomes almost rediculous when you have a big block up front. I have a few more tricks up my sleeve to shave a few more pounds from the suspension and brakes. These mods will also increasing handling and stopping performance so it'll be an ideal win-win situation when finished.
1972 Dodge Challenger R/T/A (Road & Track Attack
) 512ci RB Max Wedge, 727 TorqueFlight, mini-tubbed, 3" spring relocation kit, engine and chassis has been put on a major aluminum and fiberglass diet.
