I cant quite figure out the difference between the 1970 dodge challenger RT and the 1970 doge challenger TAbut 1 more question. Is the 1969 ford mustang mach 1 428 cobra jet ram air or the boss 420 better then each dodge challengerand what about the 1972 dodge charger.
Basic things about What it the difference between the 1970 dodge challenger ta and the rt
Dodge Challenger
Chrysler Corp. had plans to continue the 1970 Dodge. It resembles the 1970 Challenger R/T. The SRT8 received a new 392. to its 2008 counterpart, with the main difference.
Dodge Super Bee
… hood carried over from 1969, the 1970 cars from Dodge were. rear tail-lights providing the only difference between. Super Bee and now is called the Dodge Magnum, it had.
Dodge D Series
As default, it introduced the first Virgil Exner-inspired “Swept-Line” bed where. 1970 Dodge “The Dude” pickup
Plymouth Road Runner
The Road Runner of 1968-1970 was based on the. car with higher level trim and slight differences in the. GTO and Chevy’s SS-396 Chevelle outselling it. Dodge.
Dodge Charger (B-body)
In the 1970 NASCAR season, it was the 1970 Charger that tallied up more wins (10) than. new sheet metal, and while the rear roof C-pillars looked like the only difference.
The Challenger was introduced in 1970 with two models BASE CHALLENGERhardtop SE formal hardtopconvertibleCHALLENGER RThardtopSE formal hardtopconvertibleThe standard engine in the RT was the 383 Magnum. Optional was the 4404 440 Six Pack and 426 Hemi. The 340 was not available on the RT no matter what anyone tells you theyre wrong. The base Challenger could be had with the Slant 6 or the 318 standard. From there you could get the 3832 and the 3834 almost like an RT incognito. The 340 also was available on the base Challenger hardtop and ragtop only as the 340 Performance Package.
As Dodge decided to offer the 340 package on the base Challenger it only makes sense that the Challenger TA package was offered on the base Challenger. This package only available on the hardtop came with a fiberglass hood similar to the 1969 A12 Super Bees and Road Runners special striping sideexit exhaust except in CA I believe a special spoiler package and a 340 engine with Six Pack carburetors among other heavyduty equipment. This model was produced to certify certain modifications legal for TransAm racing get it TA But Pontiac already dibs for the name.
Despite a 1971 advertisement showing the TA would return none were built. Regarding your Mustang question Id say the CJ is equivalent to the Challengers Six Pack. Parts are much easier to find for the Mustang. The Boss 429 was practically handbuilt and in some ways it cant be compared to the Challenger because of the modifications that were required for it to be built. However bonestock Boss 429 cars tended to disappoint road testers at the time because it wasnt as fast as it looked despite 13second times like a Hemi Challenger RT.
The 1972 Charger. Depends on the model. There was the RT replacement called the Rallye which had a 400 standard and could have a 340 and 440 optional about 5 or so Six Packs were built before it was cancelled on the first week. You could also get the 440 on the SE. This was the first year for the lowcompression engines so 1971s tend to be more desirable but the 1972 have their own appeal and can still be fast.
