The engine is a ProCharged/carbureted 406 that actually came cross-country, from Speedomotive in West Covina, California. The Dart SHP block was bored 0.030 over, and the stroke is 3.750 inches. The rotating assembly was balanced and blueprinted and the compression checks in at a boost-friendly 9.5:1. The cam is a Comp solid roller with 0.613-inch lift and 255/262 duration at 0.050. The heads are also from Dart, 230cc aluminum casts with 72cc chambers. A Proform Hurricane intake holds a 750-cfm CSU-prepped 4150 blow-through carburetor.
The supercharger head unit is a D1SC that makes 12.5 psi of boost. Exhaust is 1-7/8-inch Hooker headers blasting into with a 3.5-inch Torque Tech X-pipe exhaust with two-chamber Flowmasters. There are no tailpipes. Transmission duties are handled by an ATI Turbo 350 with a reverse manual valve body and an ATI 4,000-stall ATI converter.
