I think your going to need bigger injectors also. The trans is going to hate you.. Should be a nice ride when it is done. The murdered out look has been beat to death IMO, but I still like the way it looks Slap them wheels your talking about on there, a 5-7 or better drop on it, your golden... BTW wth is it with all these Canadians joining up all the sudden??? jfwy

Thanks, yes i was thinking a 4/6 cause they do sit really high from stock. What brand of drop kit would you recommend? I would like one that will work with a set of cal tracs. Thanks for you input!

All us Canadians need hobbies too! lol. And it don't matter where your from, we all love the smell of burnt rubber the same! haha. So you don't think those injectors will keep up? Thanks for your help.

Im with mangled...

Not too sure how well those 39lb injectors will do with that 454, that depends on how much power you really want and how high you are planning to spin the engine. As far as the trans goes, the 6L80E should handle it OK, but a good shift kit and good converter will help out alot.

I know everyone has their own particular taste and that is what makes this hobby great, not a bunch of cookie cutter rides on every corner. That said beings you’ve chosen one hell of an engine and pretty cool transmission, I would keep the theme going and put some lighter weight wheels and a set of tires that at least stand a snow ***** chance in hell of possibly trying to hook-up in lieu of the big wheel, big tire combo. With the amount of power you stand to put to the ground, I’m sure you’re fixing to be investing in rear-end components, drive-shaft and so on.

Good luck with the build, I’m sure it will be a fun ride and I for one can’t wait to see the outcome.
