Moving 800 pounds from the front to the rear sure changed it's weight distribution and roll couples.

Here's a modern day AWB Dodge running brackets at Mokan dragway. A friend of mine said he was running a wedge with the crazy Hilborns. I had a set of MW Hilborns years ago and they were short rams going across straight out from the ports. Apparently this guy put on some elbows and tall tubes for the "caliope" look ala, BBC.
