Been awhile since I logged on. Just wanted to update on my Dakota R/T.

Did some engine modifications back in June.
M1 Intake Manifold
52mm Throttle Body
1.7 Harland Sharp Non-Adjustable Roller Rockers
Mid-Length Headers
Aero Turbine 2525 Muffler
Performance E-Fan
Mopar Performance PCM

Ran a personal best of 14.817 in the 1/4 mile back in June. I'm far from my goal of 13.9 but it'll happen!

Need to replace the shocks soon because the stockers are shot... Planning on having new shocks and a Mopar Performance PCM installed by November. Going to run it again and hope to get into low 14's, maybe high 13's.

Here's how it sits as of today... 20130814_200431_zps0392a80d.jpg

Also just added a Mopar Performance PCM to it. Took it to the track Friday night and ran a new personal best of 14.565 @ 95.73

Looks pretty good to me. Pretty sure you've got a 5.9 if it's a real Dak R/T.
13.9 shouldn't be that hard to get out of it.

You should have 3.90s and a Posi too, I'd advise you get a Torque Converter & valve body next. Those really help ya get n boogie.
