Re: 1982 Different Iron Duke

Thing was I wanted it to be reliable and fun. It would not be real reliable running 10+ pounds of boost to a cast crank just saying . Plus a fuel injection system was more than I to spend on just that. A good blow thru carb was a decent chunk of change. I already have 90% of the parts go a mild 350 around 350-375hp.

Re: 1982 Different Iron Duke

I have no love for the Iron Duke. I never understood why people salivate over them. You made a good choice putting something decent underhood. Good luck with the project.
