You are a frickin genius Chris. Smurf deserves a bow and a white over B5 blue. It would be off the charts a fun and pretty car. Just like I like my women.
Between you, Andy Wood at Unity Motorsports Garage, David Freiburger, & David Vizard, you guys are gonna dispel the old tunnel ram wives tale! Would love to see you at the No Name Nationals, but it is quite a pull from Vegas to Sikeston Missouri.
Seen all your vids and been watching for awhile. IMO, this is the best vid I've seen. Isn't it great to finally have a car run the way you want and it does it reliably...every time!!!
I love the sound of Smurf at the autocross so mean!! nothing sound's like the Big block mopar.. deep sound mopower. Smurf also need's the goofy hump removed out of the outer wheel house so u can get the bigger wider tire under car, Man pedal's with woman's hydrolic cylinder lol
Hmmm interesting Chris, I tried to do this exact mod (flip front leaf hangers) on my Challenger E-body several years ago but the factory must of decided too many line workers were sending out lowered Chargers so they changed the design so that the bolt holes are narrower at the top I think and wide at the bottom, so therefore you couldn’t flip it upside down dammit! Also maybe so that line workers didn’t accidentally put one in upside down one side and the other up if the bolt holes were symmetrical…got around it by getting some custom made hanger brackets with three hole settings. The lowest ride height setting might of torn the drive shaft weight off on the tunnel first drive, you wouldn’t think there is such a thing as too low but there is! Keep the awesome work, keeps me entertained over here in Australia, cheers. PS, I might have written this BEFORE you got to the bit where you mentioned the different size bolt pattern!
Smurf is my favorite out of all your chargers! Every time you post stuff about Smurf it’s like hell yea a new episode of Chris”s version of roadkillgarage
Waiting with bated breath to see what Smurf will do with the slicks and 3:91's. Any chance that you might make it up to Minnie for the Mopars in the Park show this year come June?
Respectfully inquiring Mr. Birdsong. Isn't it time to build a dirty Mary crazy Larry car? 440, black interior, except maybe a four speed; but got to have them slots. What do you say?
Really awesome video Chris at the end you're drifting it looked like the rear end was moving in and out on the wheel well would it be good idea for a panhard bar
Oh yeah some more stuff just FYI. Get some solid spicer u joints. I think you already have a drive shaft loop. If not get one. Your headed into the sub 10 second range I don't know what HP you have but you are soon to find out. I would get a custom drive shaft made. But that's just me in fear for my LIFE
Don't waste your time with a Dana. Highest gear with a Dana is 3.55. 8and three q. Can handle what ever you can throw at it. Where your screwing up is trying a 2 whatever or 3 whatever with a clutch. Before you take out the mighty 8 put a 4:56 in it with the Auto. That will be your best time. I put a tremec six speed in my pro stock 67 GTX with 850 hp.. pure love.. I'm just playing around on the street with it now. It'll run 200 mph with the 4:56. Check out some web sites with the gear calculators on them. My hyd clutch only has about a two inch stroke. Clutch is nice and easy. Make sure you weld a pedal stop under the clutch or you can damage your pressure plate from over extending it. Rock On Bruder man.
Sliders work well but not really roadcar stuff. And you will need a Panhard or Watts or the back will go everywhere. Some racing garden sheds have been there and were just dangerous until lateral location was resolved. That will also be your roll centre then
Actually opposite of everything you said 🤷♂️ the axle is far more stable with sliders than shackles also rides nice and smooth. I’ve put thousands of miles on them already
Great idea about back to back testing. You don't see this with youtubers much. I don't think those 2.91s are gonna get you into the 11s though. I hope you prove me wrong.
How do you handle vapor lock/ percolation? Do run electric fuel pumps or mechanical? I ask since I have been having some issues with a mechanical pump.
Oh man i know your pain, i run a mechanical fuel pump and i have a cast iron manifold with a Thermoquad. One thing that helped a ton was to get a fuel filter with an extra nipple and run the return fuel back to the tank. You can usually get a fuel sending unit with a return line so easy to circulate. That dropped my fuel temp at the carb by almost 20 degrees. Cheap and effective way to go!
Ummm a few friendly warnings... Der breeze... If you go the 4:56 route, weld an oil pan guard to your k member. You probably will need wheelie bars. So be a good boy scout and be prepared when your front end is 4 ft off the ground. Ignore me and your day at the track will be very short.
0 - 5 oil weight is horrible for any engine especially during summer months and since most new used and new vehicles run at 210 ° normal temps . I run rotella 15w40 in our 90s jeeps and a my mopars with a WIX 51515
Don't let the look fool you. There is big money here. This guy is not poor nor are his cars "cheap" To quote dolly "it costs a lot of money to look this cheap"
@@junkerup yeah and how much tied to investments and money coming from you tube? Don't insult my intelligence. I have a few mopars including a triple black 69 440 rt dana car like the one you picked up on that cash and trade. You just traded a charger and 14 large on a whim and now claim poverty? Sure, whatever you say.
You're handing out bad advice on oil. Mixing 0w with 50w doesn't give you something in between, it gives you two strata of the different oils in the oil pan. The denser oil, being the one on the bottom, will be the one sucked up by the oil pickup. Not a wise move considering both oils are probably wrong for the engine. Different oil weights don't mix just like oil and water don't mix.
the coolest guy on youtube
I'm pleased your expense and modifications to smurf have panned out so well. Great video.
Don't know how you got to live my dreams but sure glad to see someone is and doing a damn fine job at it,,best channel on youtube...
Chris you cracked me up again with the "Man pedal and the woman's hydrolic cylinder" ! Your grasp of the English language is "More better" !
Can't wait to see the slick and gear results! sweet ride! and tunnel rams rule!
Super vid` as always, screaming engines and tires . Nice .
Always like the patina look of smurf but ain't gonna lie can't wait to see it painted b5, good stuff bro!
Hey Junkerup. Good video. Things are looking up. Thanks for sharing.🍁👍👍
Lol I follow Liv and Craig too! Fun to watch!
Your neighbors are incredibly sound tolerant. Wow
That's so awesome, Smurf so cool and will be better after change's 😀👍🏽👍🏻🤙🏼
You know it’s Turbo Mode when the wipers flip up! 😆

That was great and paint 🎨 lol yea at last 😆 👍👍

Love me some Smurf action footage, and this video delivers.
Please tell me you already have the pistol grip for the 5 speed

Smurf is a 100% certified badass ripper. Love that car
You have some great neighbors! Smurf rules. Love what you've done and going to do to your entire Mopar family!
Mopar family cool video

Mopar madness ,love it!
Would love to see daisy completed one day, its the one that started me watching love them chargers makes me sad that I had to sell mine 30 years ago
Gonna drive my RoadRunner out there one day and watch. Not racing though. Looks like a fun time just to be there.
Great stuff, looking forward to the results with the slicks.
Always a pleasure to watch your videos Chris, even when the infernal go pro does lose your content.
Sits just right now. Perfect rake to it
Such a wicked car Smurf 👌 Poor Liv got smoked😁
That car would look very nice repainted to original spec. I think that's a killer idea!
Waiting with bated breath to see what Smurf will do with the slicks and 3:91's. Any chance that you might make it up to Minnie for the Mopars in the Park show this year come June?
Respectfully inquiring Mr. Birdsong. Isn't it time to build a dirty Mary crazy Larry car? 440, black interior, except maybe a four speed; but got to have them slots. What do you say?
if your roadcoursing these cars do they need anything like an accusump, or is the oil system as it sits fine for the job?
What? Your mom drove NASCAR?!!! Lol!
Sorry couldn't resist a joke - great video as always.
Really awesome video Chris at the end you're drifting it looked like the rear end was moving in and out on the wheel well would it be good idea for a panhard bar
Ngl kinda like the monster truck look Smurf has rlly makes it look rlly good
I love the way Smurf sits
Smurfit look great re-sprayed and The correct stripes put on it and Tub the rear end
Man Arizona looks cool.
After you pass roughly 20psi of oil pressure, the bypass opens up on the oil filter, and the filter doesn't filter too much.
grummpy ole nascar driver looks like me having fun
What Charger is that in your garage? Is it one that was for sale a few short years ago for $2,200?
Car's doing everything you built it to do 👍
How much is fuel were you live?it's 4.19 for regular on the Mississippi gulf coast,2 week's ago it was 2.20 a gallon.
Hey Chris thank you for the video 👍
What was your best 60' at the Duct Tape Drags? Can't wait to see your next test at the track.
2.3 on the coopers
I wish my channel was this awesome!
Awesomeness✌🏼
dude i thought i was the only one that blended oils like a mad scientist, lol.

The keyboard math shows it being a little over a second faster being lower altitude and grip here in vegas

Was this Duct Tape 2021 or 2022? I missed 2021 and I’ve been waiting for any word on 2022.

Hey Chris where can I get a charger that’s need work ? So I can build my own General Lee
Just scour the web bud
Groovy
I'm surprised Smurf still has drum brakes in the rear.
Can only afford so much
You gotta love Iiv. 🥰😙
👍
Looks way more gooder nice low
I have forgotten, is Smurf a low deck ?
440
@@junkerup Cool. I have one of the early truck '72 400s I am building into a stroker. I LOVE the way that 440 runs.
prolly woulda been faster to just install the leaf spring sliders rather than go through that driveway rodeo.
Hell yeahz!
WAIT WHEN IS DUCT TAPE DRAGS?!
Double bulbed her.. Hope it was an oops. Lol
Nice... Smurf,, get Buff...
