Here are some pics of mine. I sold it back in 05 and miss it every day. Would love to know what happened to it.
I am using a 1989 caprice. Fits very nicely between the rails. I have seen others use a firebird/camaro. I am quite happy with mine though.
It worked great. Runs like a champ. Thanks for all your help.
Ok, I did that. I will be putting the engine back together and in the truck tomorrow. I will keep you posted. The only thing I could see as a...
I have a question about these. I am using a newer 2.3 (95) in an older vehicle with a 94 harness. The 95 has 2 wires for the crank sensor and...
I like what Delaware is saying here. Can you weld a plate or something to the back of the wheel? If not, maybe the idea of a keyway might do it?...
Any progress? Just checking in. I have mine on the frame, after it has been subframed and sectioned the rear end out of the caprice in. I now...

Man, I really appreciate the help on this. I had found a 200 r 4 but had hear that they wouldn't hold up either. I think that if I get it built...
how well does a gear vendors overdrive work for mileage like that? Does it make that big of a difference?
Is your 472 stock or did you change some stuff on it to get that?
How could you not get on it though? I mean it's got it. I thought the same thing. I could maybe baby it, but who am I kidding? 20 to 22,...
It's going in a 55 buick century, my avatar. I intend to change the gears out to higher ones soon. I just found a cam from mts that says it gets...
Indeed. I know the rear axle will have to change. It's a 3:42 pos. The 400 was in working condition. The engine had a bad cam and bearings, so...
