Will have to get a new flexplate and trans shiels (expires while sitting onthe dam shelf!!!) $275
Converter may be a little tight, but it will work for now $0
Replumb the fuel system with -8 $400
Really need to dump the locker and put a spool in it, but will wait till the locker explodes $0
Just put new DOT tires on her, and 5.14 gears. Will have to get a pass and see, but I suspect it will need gears again ($375)

I'd spend over $2k and this is a 'free' 660HP motor I have sitting around. Sheeeeeeeze I think I need to attend a 'meeting' or something!
Ah it's only the banks money I always say! ;-)
Both of my cages in my street stocks went through the top of my cab down the the axle housing area of the frame I guess roundy rounders are built different...
