Post by: SUX2BU99 on November 24, 2009, 10:14:08 am: Wow, sounds like an awesome driveline! Can I ask what the ballpark budget figure would be on that? You are going to have a completely new animal when all that is done!

Post by: Lt.Del on November 24, 2009, 10:23:00 am: the torque of a 383 added to 4.11 gears. I have one thing to say....

sounds liek a ~500hp motor... going to need just short of a max effoer 700 for long term realibilty...

just have a 700r4 get busted up with a 454bbc that dynoed 250/400 at the tires...

sounds like a nice moter

Post by: HAULIN IT on December 19, 2009, 08:23:20 pm: My Two cents...Too much gear, unless you have really BIG tires. Sounds like a good, powerful engine! Lorne

Too much gear,

Ah c'mon. You can't have too much gear...you gotta have fun with spinning tires often. Besides, I don't think he needs to go 200mph. Now, if there is a lot of interstate driving, I agree, you don't want to be taching 4800 rpms to go 65mph.
