Are you going to install some heilium tanks in the nose for the whale motor wieght?

[GeneralLeeTESH]

WEIGHT is the correct spellin'. He (on the Periodic Table of Elements) is spelled "helium".
The car will have a "Static Balance" at its fulcrum (C.G. point) as we Boeing Flight Test guys say.
The HEAVY Lincoln Versailles 9.0" rearend with POSI and Disc Brakes weighs 212 lbs. The WING weighs another 100 lbs with all its attach hardware. The car SHOULD evenly balance out with not too much weight removal/addition. We'll see as we PRE-Flight it !

Had a ? on your wiring harness pictures .Is it from a 68 or 69. 68 had a short style ignition switch .69 was a longer one.Which I use for quick ID ,What I found on the 68 charger wiring harnesses the front park running lamps or when using/Daytona grille lights go off when using a 68 charger harness. when the headlight switch is fullly on 69 stay on in that headlight switch position.I personally experienced this when a friend with a real daytona used a 68 charger harness

[GeneralLeeTESH]

Gosh-  I can  not answer that honesty. My car is just a "scab-job" of old parts thrown together.
