If the Desk top dyno is have way right will make 685 HP at a mer 5200 RPM's and 600 foot pounds. Say it is off 15% that is still 582 HP and 510 foot pounds. Part that made my head hurt at 2000 RPM's 300 HP and 789 Foot pounds.

I am tired of fighting at my age, stock 440 is starting to sound pretty good to me.  PM me and we will talk Have a line on a 25,000 Mile 440 69 motor like I care about the date codes.

Ken, not doubting what you're saying, but just wanting to get this figured out.
According to this: http://www.race-cars.net/calculators/et_calculator.html
It will take 545 RearWheel HorsePower to get a 11.02 ET for a  3700 LB (being generous) Charger.

And BlockHugger, don't  cut up that car!  Its worth more than that, and is only growing in value.  Especially an original BB car, and if it has any options at all, and is in good condition.

 I just did it with a trap speed at 119 so that would be right at a 11.2. Showed 486 rear wheel HP. Hum, what can you say. I all so listed it at 3700 pounds. I will stick with my bible, has not let me down yet.

you will have to let us know what you have to do to get down to 3700.
are you gutting it out or keeping it on the street?
don't forget to tie your frame rails, i neglected that with my 440 and stress cracked the paint on the driver side A pillar.  sounds like a great challenge though.
