Well Im going to pick up my next project that probably wont get finished. Its an 84 shorty. I was gonna scrap my 84 long bed to build the short wide, but am starting to think neh. I recently got a 454 that needs gone through and wouldnt mind putting that in the shorty. Should I go rat or with a newer 5.3 liter? My long bed has a 350 with about 350hp and 380tq. It doesnt seem like enough sometimes but I also dont get any traction either. lol Opinions?
