Hey thanks for the replies. I can do the work myself no problem, and if i need to hot tank it or clean up the block, there is a good machine shop not far from me. Like I said, I would like to pull a little more power out of the original engine, so I am thinking heads are likely a must, but I don't know if the stock manifolds will bolt to the different heads or not.
I do not know what the rear is, but if I had to guess I would say 3.42 or even lower.. it does not have posi I know that..
does this sticker help with identifying the rear end?
