thing is in orange crush-unknown gear ratio in rear,2wd,heavy half,31 10.50 tires on 15x8 rallys,stock suspension,longbed,no air,p/s and p/b and not much else weight or mod wise with the above mentioned 355 in it was a dog out of the hole.it would run high speeds ok but off the line was a joke.i think in ol red the engine with a tune up and maybe a few other mods will wake up nicely just trying to get an idea of the convertor i should go with and other mods i should make.
