Yeah mine looks pretty lol... I detailed the underside of the truck too.... now to get the real engine in it and toss the boring old LQ4 out lol. It worked good as a place holder for the headers to bolt on to and allow the exhaust to be built. Everything is here... all I need is time... winter usually gives me more of that lol.

408 stroker? I really have a hard on for throwing a super charger on mine, don't have the money or time though. Plus all the other what ifs that go along with that. And since its got to last me another 5 years or better i should juat leave it alone.

No lol. You don't stroke stock blocks if you want it to live more than a couple thousand miles. Forged 30 over 6 liter, custom Isky ground cam, Lingenfelter cnc'd Edelbrock catherdrals we reworked ( because I had them kicking around) and a TVS 2300. Should do something... I am not investing a dime in the 4L80e down to the stock converter ( flashes to 2600 anyway)..... I want to use an aftermarket controller I sourced and run a 6L90E.

Oh come on go big or go home lol, that should be a real nice runner, im still kicking around the idea of shipping my heads off to Texas speed so they can work a little of their magic, with the right bump stick i figure a 30 to 40rwhp gain is reasonable. But the wife needs a new ride and we just bought a new house so no go fast parts for me for a while.

It will run... If it's not 700 crank hp it's a fail... and I might see if in can break that number at the wheel lol. But that's the fun of it. I have a 70 GTO to make a runner now too but that's the project life lol.
