1969 Plymouth Road Runner
Randy F's '69
383 Road Runner. It's auto on the column, has A/C, power
brakes, and power steering.
I sold Randy this engine
out of my '68 383
GTS. He wanted a mild motor that was very driveable and would work
great with A/C. The motor put my 3,500LB GTS into the high 11's with
the exhaust open @ 112MPH. It's a 10.9 to 1 438" 383 with stock 915
heads and a small solid cam, Performer RPM intake with 800 Edelbrock
carb, and runs through exhaust manifolds. Through the mufflers with
3.55 gears, it pushed this 4,000LB car to 105MPH in 12.85 seconds with
a huge stumble out of the gate......come to find out, the fuel in the
tank was sloshing and the pickup tube was sucking air. He was happy
with what it ran and since it was the last TNT of the season before the
track closed, we never ran it again..
Wheels and tires on the
car are mine that I
loan to customers to race their cars. Normally, this car runs around on
14" Magnum wheels and hard street tires.
