47-55 weight?
What does a 3 window shortbed with a MII frontend weight? I`m guessing about 3500lbs? sound about right?

Re: 47-55 weight?

Re: 47-55 weight?
The reason I ask is I`m still trying to buy this truck from this old man I know and I`m getting a great running 327 from another friend and I figured if the weight is close, it should run just as good in the old truck if I gear it the same. Thanks.

Re: 47-55 weight?
What BHP is the 327? What are your plans for the pick up?

I don`t know the hp rating of the motor but it would probably run high to mid 13`s in my buddys chevelle. My plans are pretty much just to drive it but I want to burn up some tires sometimes too,lol. deabt54,yeah that does help alot. i plan to run a th350 and a 9" so the weights should be similar. Are you running the stock fronend or a MII set up? |
Re: 47-55 weight?
Its stock with 5 lugs and drums. Getting ready to put a 89 corvette suspension up front. Got the cross member from Progessive Automotive. Should be fun LOL!!!!!
