Vehicle Description
If you're looking for an easy going, cruiser Mopar, we can show you
something else in our inventory. Instead, this 1970 Dodge
Challenger is a Hemi pro-street machine rated at 1,000 horsepower
on E85. So it can eat up any asphalt from the boulevard to the
dragstrip. The fact that this full professional build also happens
to be made from one of your favorite classic American sports car
icons is just the cherry on top.
This might be an iconic classic, but you can also instantly see it
was built for intimidation. Everything from the side mirrors to the
badging was deleted for a sleek coupe And there's no mistaking the
stance of a small front tire and tubed rear end. While the
ultra-sick two-tone looks like it went over classic sheetmetal,
this is a true full build. So that means weight saving pieces like
fiberglass bumpers and a carbon trunk lid. You also may notice it's
missing one of its quad headlights (to directly feed the turbo of
the monster motor.) The reason for such an intimidating machine is
because you're looking at a car that was not only engineered by
Kurt Busch Inc., but also fans of the show Pinks: All Out will
remember seeing Kurt Busch behind the wheel!
Inside is more of that race-ready attitude. You get a full true
race cage built to the special chassis that was done for NHRA 7.50
Sportsman specifications. You and your passenger strap into proper
racing seats with full Schroth racing harnesses. There's more of
the right safety with a Stroud parachute system and full fire
suppression system. This doesn't mess around with pedestrian
accessories. Instead, you have RacePak on-board data system and
clearly labeled toggle switches for all your important components.
The steel steering wheel has that hardy professional feeling, and
the dash is dominated by a AutoMeter Carbon Fiber gauge package. Oh
yes, this is everything you need for a true racer.
We know you've been waiting about all those amazing details about
what's under the hood, and we can tell you it's even better than
you imagined. It's a 6.1-liter Hemi V8 built by famed master Jimmy
Barton. The build starts with a Mopar aluminum block dry-sump
motor, and it gets enhanced and fortified with a Bryant Racing
custom ground crankshaft, Carrillo H-beam rods, Mahle box-in-box
pistons, Thitek billet cylinder heads, Jesel valvetrain, Comp Cams
custom ground turbo camshaft, Wilson Manifolds throttle body,
Injector dynamics ID1000 Injectors, and a FAST fuel injection fuel
management system. And yes, it's a turbo machine with a Precision
110mm turbocharger, Precision dual wastegates, and KBI custom water
to air intercooler. It's an awesome setup that has pulled dyno
figures of 1,300 horsepower. It's currently tuned to make 1,000 hp
with 12lbs of boost on E85 fuel. The transmission is a HD
Powerglide unit built by Bernard Weaver. It includes a Greg Slack
torque converter and SFI-approved ATI bell housing. This feeds a
Driveshaft Shop driveshaft on its way to a Speedway Engineering
custom Ford 9-inch rear end. The undercarriage photos show the full
custom chromoly chassis with all the best suspension pieces. It
includes tubular front crossmember with custom KBI control arms, a
four-link rear w/pro stock wishbone, and a four-wheel disc brakes
system with a Strange Engineering master cylinder and front line
lock.
