Well done Short-T.
Did you rewire it and do the tuning yourself?

Thanks, so far it sure beats the old 383/700r4.

Harness and tuning done by Speartech. Turn key, so far no problems!

Im really curious to see what your thoughts are on it vs. your old setup.

Me too. It seems to start about the same but revving is a lot more responsive so far. It was ok with the efi but if you revved it cold sometimes it would die.

Yeah, I am interested in the performance I am going to get with this setup as well.

The cam is a Comp Cam High Lift XR281HR. Semi aggressive but still should be very street-able.

Here's mine just about finished up. Need to add an electric fan, some antifreeze bolt up the torque converter and its ready to start. I also need to order a drive shaft too.
