I look forward to your updates.
Hard to beat a magnum if you go manual! Honestly the 200-4r is an awesome trans, especially if you dont want to have to modify a ton to gain overdrive.

Smile Re: My 64 Project

Got the truck back together and running again. Unfortunately due to work, I didnt get much chance to put miles onto the setup. I was able to makea few shows though. Hopefully I can get a bit more miles put on her this fall and next season. Need to do a lot of tweaking and tuning, but slowly getting things dialed in.

That was the plan before the 6.0/4l80e purchase. I had a 408ci sbc & purchased the 200-4R off C-list to go behind it. G-body Malibu SS (stupid simple)

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
