I did rich kid in bagdad had one and let me try it out. Did a wheel stand in 2nd gear. I don't know how he ordered it I do know he had a 440 mag. with 2 four barrel carbs from the factory.
Those were the days you could order different rear ends , suspensions, brake sizes ,and transmissions just to name a few things, nobody was interested in safety just performance.

Two four barrels was unusual, the standard seem to have been the six pack, I believe more punch for the buck, but harder to keep tuned. Not positive about that issue, since I never owed a car with this option, although I am familiar with the three duce options on other makes
Never cared much for them, basically was a twin for the barracuda.
The Hemi had more punch, but added a lot more cost, which is the case in the new Hemi cars today.
I have had faster cars than the 1970 challenger, that could lay some rubber in second gear, wheel stand no way.

well a bad choice of words the front wheels did come off the ground in first and second gears if you wanted to push it
