1970 Dodge Challenger T/A

SCCA rules required Dodge to sell production editions of it's track car, and Dodge responded with the Challenger T/A. Race cars ran a destroked 305ci version of a 340ci V-8. It had a four-barrel carb and 440 bhp. Street T/As kept the 340, but upped that with a trio of two-barrel Holleys on top of an Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold. The T/A carried the same 290 bhp rating as four-barrel 340s, though that was actually closer to 350 bhp.

The T/A wasn't a consistent SCCA winner, and its street sibling wasn't a road racer, succumbing to debilitating understeer around corners. Only 989 examples left the factory with a 4-speed manual gearbox. This car is finished in Go Mango Orange. The car appears at Mecum.
