Re: the new guys project 68 swb

the first picture is with the old small block i havnt jerked it out yet but it was a good little street motor that made 587 hp on a 75 shot but with kb hypereutectic pistons dont really like nitrous no matter how much you give em ..or how less you give em, had some timing issues (stock hei vacuum advance) weight curve kit and gutted for msd box. but none the less i built a new small block (post pictures soon) and i built a th-400 with a manual valve body reverse pattern with tci transbrake and 3,800 stall with anti balooning plates and the new engine is bigger....beefier, and more nitrous i dont know what the truck will weigh in at but hopefull i will get it around the 3,300 mark...shooting for the stars i know but thanks for any imput guys.
