Roadkill (2012)
S04E05 Farm-Find Rescue! Plymouth Duster Big-Block Swap
Episode Overview
Title: Farm-Find Rescue! Plymouth Duster Big-Block Swap Plot: In this exciting episode, we unveil a fresh Roadkill project: the Crop Duster! This 1970 Plymouth Duster, long forgotten by Freiburger after numerous trades and five years of abandonment on a grape farm, is ready for revival. With a 440 Mopar big-block from the General Mayhem '68 Charger at hand, Freiburger and Finnegan journey to the farm of Steve Dulcich, the Editor of Engine Masters magazine, to rescue the Duster from its overgrown fate. Their mission: to install the engine and have it up and running—complete with smoky burnouts—in just five days. Throughout the process, they tackle engine enhancements, improvise a driveshaft, and perform some creative bodywork, all while maintaining the signature chaos of Roadkill. The adventure culminates at the chassis dyno and drag strip, with minimal setbacks. Special thanks to MSD Performance and Optima
