I'm not really sure if it would be cheaper to buy a ready to run 70 challenger stocker being that the car is already owned. Ultimately depends how fast you want to go and how much $$ you can or want to spend. Good Luck!

I am fond of the 318 Thermoquad @ 230 HP.
I have run it pretty fast in both stock and SS on a budget.

What happen to the 1970 Challenger. 318 2bbl is over rated at 185. Hopefully its a nice car to start with. John knows there isn't a 318 with a 360 top in 1970. Sounds like you'll be looking for a Aspen/Volare soon to race cheaply.
