Default Re: I finally did something about the performance of the XF

I'm pleased with it, although I must admit that I would like more punch. But since it sits at the airport in Atlanta most of the time, it suits my needs just fine. For performance, I have a 1973 Plymouth Duster with a Mopar Performance short block and Edlebrock aluminum heads, ported and polished with several other upgrades. It's not really streetable (nor is it street legal) but I do take it to car shows and cruise nights occasionally. Best time at the 1/4 Mile track (Silver Dollar Raceway in Reynolds, GA) is 10.96 at 127.55 MPH. 0-60 in about 3.5 seconds. So when I feel the need for speed, I know where to go...but when I feel like cruisin' Chrysler style...the Crossfire fits the bill perfectly for this 49 year old Mopar nut. Enjoy your ride....whatever it is!
I guess the ricers live you alone when you cruise in that Duster hah !
