Re: Starting my engine build

Some head manufacturers are different but I've seen a few require different length push rods than oem ones. And I'd check what rear end gear you have to see kinda where your cruise speed will be its kinda gotta jive with the converter. Basically you'll end up burning the trans up. If the cruise speed isn't past the flash point of the converter. If do some digging I think b&m or I'm sure someone else also make a chart to tell what converter to use depending on rear gear and cruise speed. You may also want to get a descent additional trans cooler stalls tend to heat up more. The one piece pan gasket I was talking about is a oil pan gasket really cool gasket. Better than any cork one I've ever used
