Under the hood lies a meticulously built Dart 400 cubic-inch
small-block stroker engine, delivering a staggering 678 dyno-tested
horsepower and 608 lb-ft of torque. This powerplant was crafted
with premium components, including a Compstar 3.75" steel
crankshaft, Eagle H-beam rods, and Wiseco blower pistons. A Weiand
6:71 supercharger (6% underdriven) forces air into the engine
through dual Holley 710 CFM carburetors, ensuring breathtaking
acceleration and performance. The Dart Pro 1 aluminum cylinder
heads and a custom Comp roller camshaft with roller rockers further
enhance the engine's efficiency and power.
Keeping this beast cool is a custom-built radiator, 4 inches thick

system ensures flawless spark delivery, while the March Performance
serpentine belt system adds both reliability and style. Built by

transmission featuring a B&M drag shifter with a reverse shift
pattern and a TCI 3500 stall converter. This setup transfers power
seamlessly to the rear wheels, ensuring the car performs as well on
the strip as it does on the street.
A narrowed 9-inch Ford rear end with 31-spline axles, Detroit
Locker, and a 3:55 gear ratio ensures durability and performance.
