Project Demon Spawn: the rebirth of my 70' Duster-efi, 408ci, t56, dana 60

[ALLstrokedOUT]

Thanks Erik, Im so greatful for my dad helping build the demon, itd probably take 5 times longer if he wasnt doing what hes doing while im away at school.
Ive got a small update: On the last day of welding class, i did some tig welding for the efi intake 'hat'. Welding ~1/8" sheet metal to such thick aluminum requires a completely different technique than i am used to. This is the prettier of the four corners, but im going to grind the welds down later because of the uglyness. Before i left home last week i drilled the intake for the injector bungs, theyre at 1/2" dia and need to get to > 3/4" still but theyre mostly line up where they need to be.

I made a very general piece in solidworks about a year ago, the finished product will look similar, its really pretty standard:

Progress is progress. The build is coming along and looking good.

Thanks a lot Will, that means a lot to me...I love your project, that thing has evolved into a beast very quickly, top notch work..ive been meaning to compliment you on your latest updates too. My dad sent me a quick pic, thought it looked kinda cool and worthy of posting-On all fours for the first time.

Hey guys, just a small update, I got an email from my dad. Hes working on the doors. Were mixing and matching doors so theres the least amount of rust repair to do. My dad got the rust repair finished and just primed them today. I ordered the rest of the AN fittings needed for the hydroboost and the fuel injection setup. The Flatz sublime green paint also arrived this past week.



Finally, i had some free time, so i redid the emblem idea for the demon, this is the last update on that before its on the car-so what do you guys think???

Its basically the same demon emblem with the mopar blue "m" in the middle. But i added in a set of viper eyes (to hint at the 6spd and eventually the viper brakes) but i cant decide on what set of horns to use, the more traditional demon horns or the dodge ram horns...Thanks for looking!

[craigs73]

demon for sure

You've been busy...she's looking good man.

Always great work on this thread

[ALLstrokedOUT]

Thanks a lot guys! ...and as always I wish I was doing more work on it instead of being stuck up in school. The last day of school is about a month away, I hope to be down there once before that to finish up the fuel system plumbing, maybe some wiring for the efi so that mid/early may we may be able to try and crank the engine over.

Looking good. Can't wait to see what the Lime paint looks like.

Just a small update: More primer and sanding. This is after primer, 150 block sand, and a second coat of primer. My dads halfway done with the 320 grit block sanding, and will hopefully have it sealed and in sublime green within two weeks. I have an exam every week up to finals, so i wont be home until three weeks from now. The plans for that trip are to help mount all the body panels, finish wiring the fuel injection, and continue on the intake.

Thanks for looking

I like how much the hotchkis springs have lowered the rear, i hope i can get the front low enough without dragging the oil pan to make a decent stance

[sokoloka]

You guys are making great progress. I already LOVE this car!

[rfalker1]

I say use the ram horns. I like the design too. and the car is coming along!!!

[ALLstrokedOUT]

Thanks a lot guys! My dad painted the body and trunk lid today, and will paint the doors and front quarters tomorrow.



I hope its obnoxious enough haha. I still have a week of finals before i can go home and do anything...

[ent72olds]

Dude...I think my eyeballs are burnt lol! Definitely a Mopar look! Keep up the good work! Dad rules!!!

[ALLstrokedOUT]

Haha thanks! I said i want people to see this thing from a mile away so they dont slam into it in traffic again. I hope it doesnt blind anyone though, im excited to see it out in the sun with the black wheels and hood/bumpers (the hood has a LOT of work still needed when i get down there).

[wellis77]

Looks awesome Tim!

[ALLstrokedOUT]

Thanks Will!

Ill try to restrain myself and only add one more picture until my dad takes some pics of it out in the sun tomorrow; the color looks better than i was hoping, sorry to those who think its ugly, repulsive, and obnoxious (my girlfriends comments, paraphrased) but thats why i like it i think hahaha.

[linkstar69]

Loving the look. Great work

[454bug]

Color looks great Tim!

Thanks to Dad for keeping the project moving forward while you're at school!!

[MattWash08]

Love it! Id like to do a flat red of some sort on my mustang after seeing that green. Im sure it looks great in the sun too!
