For the first time in Dodge Charger history, the 440 six-pack was an available engine in the R/T version. This engine is not the most powerful option available, but it is by far the most impressive. It sat from edge to edge inside the engine bay, with a trio of two-barrel carburetors sitting on top of the intake. The center 350 CFM Holley carb was used in daily driving, while the other 500 CFM carbs were used when mashing down on the gas pedal.
Starting in 1970, the 500 was a simple package that could be added to the base level Charger. Luckily, the 1970 Dodge Charger was the first year of the large metal bumper in the front.
In 1970, Bobby Isaac won 11 of the NASCAR circuit races. This is important because he drove an orange 1970 Dodge Charger with a 383 Magnum and a pistol grip four-speed transmission. Isaac took the pole many times and won more races on the circuit in '70 than any other car or driver. To top off his exceptional year with the Charger, he also won the final race, making him the circuit champion for the year. In turn, this makes the Charger the best car of 1970 for all those who love to race, even on the street.
