ok, ok, ok, i got a couple shots.. the engine is clean, but need some work. besides, it is bout to go to the shop to get about 600 ponies stuffed into it. . now after that it's the trans..
at it is now, it is a mostly stock 454, holly 4bbl carb 750cfm, mild cam, headers, 3" pipe, flowmasters 30 series, and 4" tips. no cats and true duals. the trans is a th350 with a shift kit, and stall converter(not sure which size), final out put through the 4.11 posi. i got 255/70/r15 all way round on rubber. i got a lot of stuff planned for this truck. engine: 454 0.030 over, high performance crank, rods, bearings, pistons, cam, lifters, and valve train. heads gonna get port and polished, bigger valve jobs with 3 angle job to it too. intake is gonna be the holly airgap, and a street adveger 800cfm carb. the trans i gonna get replaced, but with what, i'm not sure. later down the road, i will be adding a blower to it. but like i said much later. i'm glad y'all like it. thanks |

Built 700r4 would do it.. but a built one, billet servo's, clutch packs, etc. Street rodders use em all the time, i know some 600+ ponied ls1's on juice with 700r4's behind em, holds up fine.
