update.
the truck sounds good with the highflow cat and supper 44 muffler. not too loud nice deep rumble...

got a minor exhaust leak at the header collector...

compared to the 302, holy crap! this thing gets up and goes!!! only half throttle at a dead stop squawked the 35's on a stock 3.55 gear ratio amazing what an extra 60 lb.ft. will do lol


im thinkin 393 stroker when this one blows

Glad to hear it runs good!! At least one of our Windsors runs good, I don't think mine would spin tire if I had the rear end jacked up.

my 302 used to be able to light up my 35's with help from some ATF lol that was till my old tranny dropped 1st gear and then the motor died lol...

i may need need to get a larger MAF sensor, seems like when i get up to about 3000 rpm it sounds like its choking out and running real rich, but idle-3000 it runs awesome

Nice job man, looks really good. You have done a lot of work to that truck, didn't you do 4x4 conversion a few years ago?

Sounds pretty good. I like it!

That sounds like a pretty good price for a gear swap. At least I think so, I've always heard of it costing $1,000 or so.

Oh ya, I forgot it's only 2 wheel drive.

I can see roll cages and bull bars in the future now.

im thinking a pre-runner brush guard. and 4-linked solid axle w/coil-overs up front lol

ive been doing some 3-D CAD sketches for a linked front figuring all the measurements/angles.

gotta love when my dads best friend works for a metal supplier and can get any type, shape, and size metal for cost, even seamless DOM tube.
