70 Challenger Big mods

[6PKRTSE]

Nice build. I like your mods throughout.

Wow ... It looks great , I assume the 340 is out & the 6.1 or 6.4 is in !!
Great job on fabricating the body !!

Hey everyone, is anyone still following this build

If anyone here is at SEMA, check out the Stewart Warner booth in the central hall. Booth number 22316!

Keep the pics coming….so putting a hellcat motor in it?

Looks pretty awesome, love my Viper and my 2 Challengers so this is the best of both worlds.

I almost did the very same thing as you did raising the center bulge on my R/T hood. I decided to go Super Shaker instead.

Hey, yep we ended up going that direction. The Hellcat was a challenge to get in the car especially with all the coolers and pumps, hindsight is 2020 and a Viper V10 would have been easier and arguably as good but here we are. The hellcat will be awesome!

Thats exactly what I'm thinking. I love my 97 GTS, and a E body Challenger has always been a dream car of mine so best of both worlds


Also everyone check out this video I did for the car at SEMA. Theres a few odds and ends we need to button up on the car but we got there and it will be ready for next summer.

Its already cold up here in Wisconsin!

Here's a shot of the car at SEMA

If you haven't checked out the build series we have on YouTube for the car I'd recommend checking it out!



We still have lots of build footage to edit and post, and then of course once we finish a few odds and ends, and the snow melts, we will be posting lots of action videos of this car on the street and on the racetrack

Well,,,,,,,,,,,,, been a while. Other projects, life, covid (almost got me).

Was at SEMA last november. Next time it's out of garage, I'll take pics of interior.

 

[HighwayStar]

It was a ton of work buttoning up the plumbing/wiring on it but we got it done in time to travel all the way to California to Laguna Seca for an event with the Ultimate Street Car Association!

We have completed the autocross and judged portions of the event, and I've been on track for a practice session. Today we compete in a acceleration and braking challenge, and bit the track for timed laps!

This car is an absolute animal!

 

[HighwayStar]

Update! This thing is an animal on the big track, traction is a challenge however I was passing everything in sight! The car has a sub 1:40 in it but I didn't get a chance to prove it as I was held up by some Corvettes. As it stands I was able to get a 1:42.7, which interestingly enough is Randy Pobsts record for a Hellcat Challenger Widebody at that track so you gotta feel good about that.

 

[HighwayStar]

Hey everyone! More updates on the car, added some purple, and some aerodynamic aids to help keep the car stuck to the ground.

Headed to Daytona International Speedway as we speak so stay tuned!

Here's a shot of it at our last event at Road America

 

[HighwayStar]

Hey all! We have been busy all year with this car at events all over the country. With the USCA we headed to Daytona, then Moparty in Kentucky, SCCA Time Trial Nationals in Bowling Green, Kentucky, Las Vegas Motor Speedway and SEMA with the OUSCI and now we are at PRI in Indianapolis! If anyone is here for the show stop by and see the car in the Peterson Fluid Systems booth and get some free stuff!
