Thanks. Hopefully I can get it running in the next couple of weeks. It's a 1999 Vortec 7400 engine that I converted to carburetor. Should be good for around 350hp and 450lbs-ft torque. I'm using a 4l80e with a TCI stand-alone controller. Rear end is the original 2.73 10-bolt, but plans are to find a 3.73 locker after I get it drivable.

Re: Whatcha got under the hood?

Had one of my 400 Pontiacs in it, but it is going in a 65 GTO, so I needed another source of motivation. The only thing close to the Pontiac would be a rat. I will clean it up and make it all purdy later, right now its a tad too cold with too much snow to mess with it.

Here is the 400



here is the filthy 454 I pulled from an 87, still needs a cam, intake, springs, etc...
