Now that is impressive. I am hoping that my truck will be able to handle similar situations if I need it to. I have an "RV" roller cam that is "all in" before 5000 rpm couple that with the 406 with TPI it "should" be able to pull a house, we will see....Painted the 205 case and the cast iron adapter last night so now I just need my bearings and gasket kit. I'm looking at NV4500 rebuild kits now....

neat! i like the 400 small blocks and roller is the only way to go now days. While building for go dont forget the whoa. Hydro boost transplanting is not that hard. Consider looking into it. 600+ ft-lbs is nice for getting the house moving but 4 wheel disks and hydro boost is nice for slowing it down again. Consider sway bars for keeping things under control through the transit too.
