By the time it is set up and complete it will be right at $2900.

1987 Shortwide · 01-02-2006, 02:44 PM

thanks.

I'm tossing around the idea of either TKO or T56 in my caprice wagon.

I think the T-56 is rated at 450 ft lb torque. the Tko will hold 600.

Post a few pics when you can!!

phantom dually · 02-05-2006, 11:27 PM

Ordered the parts I need to finish the TKO 600 tranny. Got the MCLeod bellhousing and there Hydraulic throwout bearing. Also got the McLeod street twin clutch and pressure plate setup. It is supposed to hold up to 1000 hp.

Chevrolet4x4s · 02-05-2006, 11:59 PM

Lets hope that youll have enough power to at some point break it and have to upgrade.

That would be nice but a little over the top I guess. Just wanted a stout unit that I know will hold some abuse.

plungerbugger · 02-13-2006, 11:11 PM

nice job on the truck man, keep the updates coming

Had a friend paint my engine today. Here are a few pics.

Mike76251 · 03-26-2006, 01:27 AM

All I know to say is WOW!!
Very nice everything!!!
You have good taste in rocker arms.....those are the best.
I have never been able to break one.
They better be good too as they are $360 for a small block.

The only thing I kept thinking when I saw both of those rear setups is the word "gussets".
Maybe I have too much time welding up steel for Nuke plants but I do think a few gussets make it look all the more pro.

phantom dually · 03-26-2006, 10:23 PM

On my setup we actually with a few added braces. I went thru the plate frame with the crossmember and ran pipe at a angle at the front of them. Should hold great!!
