Why do you think you're crazy? I've made my four door Dart handle so well I'm afraid to actually test it's limits on the street(cause' I haven't found them there yet, at least in a manner where I follow the speed limit). On a parking lot it's quite a bit of fun, but that's a little different feeling than a windy road. As for the speed part, I'm working on that. Then you have to think that you're talking to people that are trying to make there slant sixes go faster than most V8s and lightweight 4 cylinders(a lot of which actually accelerate faster than the stock musclecars of the 70's. If you really want to put a 440 in your Dart you might try out www.bigblockdart.com, over here we would root for you to keep your slant six.

I'm fairly sure I've seen someone post a picture of a four door Dart with a fiberglass hood and a 4 barrel carb with headers.
