Street Driven 1971 Dodge Demon Dips Into the 8's

8 second 1971 dodge demon 540 drag racing

After drag racing the 1971 Dodge Demon on 29.5/10.5 tire for years, Josh Peloquin has decided to try 275 drag radials and dipped into the 8's on his very first 1/4 mile pass at Byron Dragway. The Indy Maxx aluminum block 540 Dodge V8 engine paired with 727 trans and Dana 60 with leaf springs seems to be working very well for him as the 1971 Demon launches with the front wheels in the air and runs down the track like it's on rails.
