Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is proud to offer this drag strip ready 1972 Plymouth Duster. This Duster isn't just a drag strip monster but is also a show car with the factory steel body painted in a white pearl base coat with blue metallic flake and custom airbrushed graphics. This one turns the power up with a motor built by Big Al's Tox Box that includes a 8/71 Blower Shop billet supercharger with dual QuickFuel E-85 650CFM carburetors, a highly polished Enderle BAU-2 top hat, 408CID V-8 with an Eagle stroker crank, Eagle H-beam rods, Eagle forged pistons, ARP fasteners, COMP camshaft, lifters and rocker arms, Edelbrock Performer RPM aluminum heads, ceramic coated Super Competition Hooker headers feeding into a 4" exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers, MSD distributor and a 727 TorqueFlite transmission with a PTC 3,500 RPM stall converter. All those goodies add up to an estimated 900hp and 800LB-FT of torque on around 14Lbs of boost. Of course, with all the motor upgrades the interior needed some safety upgrades that consist of a 8-point roll cage, a pair of SCAT ProCar bucket racing seats trimmed in black and blue, and a set of RCI harnesses to keep you in place during those mile runs. The suspension has been given some attention in the form of ladder bar back half done by Jimmy Vines out of Midland, Texas, a narrowed Chrysler 8 housing with Moser 35-spline axles and Richmond 4.56 gears with strange single adjust shock at all four corners along with 4-wheel disc brakes. Up front is a set of 15x4 Billet Specialties Street Lite wheels with Mickey Thompson Sportsman tires and in the rear is 15x15 wheels wrapped in sticky 31.5x18.5-15 Hoosier Quick time tires. This '72 Duster is a "sit down & hang on" type build and is most definitely NOT for the faint of heart!
