New toy and money pit! 4.3 Vortec, SM465 trans 203 T-case corporate 10bolt axles, in its near future!

This is our future......

Online metals has 3/4" x .035 aluminum tubing. 0.75" OD x 0.035" WALL x 0.68" ID 6061 T6 TUBE I have bought from them before. Decent company, a little pricey but they UPS small cut sizes. Real handy.

I'm not sure what the gap is supposed to be, but I do know the one to ask. Jake he is a member here http://nastyz28.com/members/jakeshoe.1785/ PM him he will get pointed in the right direction. Good score on the drum!

Funny you should say that my truck has dual batteries and I didn't think of it at the time but I could have popped one in the car from the dually and made a couple more passes :rolleyes:

Gonna put the bigger pills in next time. Go from 225 kit to a 400 kit. That should give me a single digit ET.

With 33" tires I'm not turning that hard at the trap. Shift a 7K. To be honest, Only got to make the two passes you see last night. Neither time did the shift light come on on the big end, so I was under the 7K. The car wouldn't charge and I don't have a generator (yet!). The problem was a...

Finally got back to the track! Better axles and 5.13 gears. Only got two passes in but it was enough tell I'm moving in the right direction. Time slips are with their respective videos. Note that I let out early, about 1-2 car lengths before beams. Right lane.

Never posted to this thread. So here it is. Me and my Panther

WoooHoooo ^^^^^^^ She sure is purdy!

I grow Carolnia Reapers, and they are insanely hot. I can't imagine eating all those in one sitting, each round getting hotter. I like spicy but that seemed to be crazy. Like holding your hand on the stove while it heats up, the one that holds their hand there the longest wins? Really something...

As mentioned, if you are looking at a specific use then buy accordingly. If you want to show off old school brawn or put some low ET slips in a photo album the a BB is the way to go. I you are looking for some modern retro pizazz the an LS with maybe some trick EFI might be your choice. I...

Wonder if they make a quick change transmission!? Good luck with you build. Mind your seals some can be tricky!

There is a good chance that both may have what you need.

The intermediate drum in your trans (if you got it already) may have a "good drum in it. Then you just need to purchase the sprag. Don't put it in upside down! If it doesn't have a good drum, they readily available. Quick search on eBay for example...

Small world!

Little joint called New York Pizzeria? Think I know where you're at. Probably be that way in the spring!

Is your shop on South St.? Thinking about getting up your way come spring. Been to long since I visited. And of course I'll have to get one of them pies you keep posting pictures of!

How ironic. I was just thumbing through this brochure this morning.

Either kit should work for you well. A TH400 has a notoriously weak sprag. I would advise that you upgrade to a 34 element piece and make sure your intermediate drum has the smooth race. One on right is what you want, not the left. Get a good trans cooler and you should have a solid setup.
