Have you received it yet? I have its younger brother, the 406. Mine is going in my 69 Camaro. I do not have it installed yet. I have been very pleased with responsiveness of Smeding. So far, they have been great.

Didn’t make it today. My Son called on it and was told it will be Wednesday (tomorrow) now. Fingers crossed

The anticipation has to be brutal, at least for me it would be.

LOL. He got a call this morning. Engine will NOT be delivered today
The New date is Friday Next Year.

[1970 CST Short Wide]

He couldn’t wait. He went to the Trucking Terminal and picked it up
Carb is 855 cfm. Check it out. NICE

[SCOTI]

2900-5900 @ 500+ torque. Very nice curve....

[SRU1436]

Wow, that’s a beaut Clark! ��. I think I found my new motor for my Chevelle.

[67RS/SSx2]

Congrats! I know how it feels to be so excited over the arrival.

[1970 CST Short Wide]

Heading over in the morning to install this Bad Boy. Can’t wait to drive it and feel that torque.

[BRL]

Very nice, glad you got it home.

[1970 CST Short Wide]

It’s in and Running. The new 3” Stainless exhaust with Spin Tec mufflers (if you want to call them that LOL) Sound Great. Cam has a Nice lope, Very responsive. This was a dry run as we’re still working on PS hoses and Rad hoses, Just HAD TO HEAR IT. Will finish up tomorrow and take it for a ride if it’s not Raining to hard

[Palf70Step]

Glad to hear you got it in

[Steeveedee]

We'll see how long it takes before everyone gets tired of those "mufflers". I put a Flow Master exhaust system on one of my vehicles back around y2k, and my sons could tell I was coming from a block away.
Glad that the engine is working out fine!

That is Funny right there.

Many do not want to spend the money for the Flowmaster big block mufflers (70 series). Maybe no room, which is understandable. They are almost stock at idle with a nice added rumble. Love the one on my 94, added just after purchase. Will see how two of them work out on my 72 project.

[1970 CST Short Wide]

Took it for a ride today. YA BUDDY This thing Rocks.
Don’t know how to attach video ,can anyone help me there

Yeah, I paid something like $300 for a header back system. So the mufflers were bottom of the line. It was much better with Cherry Bombs. Ended up selling that car because the wife said the doors were too heavy. (2-door '72 Le Mans)

BoT, I'd like to see a video of this truck rumbling.
