Damn, I leave for a few days and these monumental things happen. Congrats Cody, that thing sounds mean as Hell. Guess there's not gonna be much excitement around here now that you got that build done.

Bout damn time. Congrats Cody, I know what a pain in the *** it can be when BS keeps happening. Im glad this happened to you though, I was actually considering a 418, but I think Ill stick to the 408

He left last night around 9:30 to go to TX. Maybe he stayed awake! I hope 
It was cutting up good with that Corsa as he was pulling off. And I thought my little 293 was pretty loud at idle

It took me about 24 horus to get from Northern AL to Austin, TX I had to finally go to sleep at about 4am this morning then got up at 7 and kept driving. It is a little loud at idle it was fun sitting at red lights and looking in my mirrors at the peoples faces trying to figure out what the hell was going on with my truck
I had two guys follow me into the gas station to ask me what kind of exhaust I had. A dude cut me off and so I went out around him and gave him an ear full of corsa sport with lts and no cats with 418CI pushing the air through it. he flicked me off
Thanks guys. There will be some new problems to come Im sure. Its burning a little oil right now but Ill deal with it later. A 4l80e is coming sooner than I thought it would the 2-3 shift just slips and hits the rev limiter so its time for a built 80e already
Wont even get to take it to the track in its current state
Matt yeah get ur butt out to the GTG in March hopefully Ill have the 80e in there and we can get some fun 4wd action going.
Jim its CODY
Thanks for all the compliments guys it has been a long road to get it going and it fun as hell to drive it will still spin them in 2wd from a 15 roll with 600#s in the bed a trailer with my bike 4 wheels and tires, two tires, and about 400#s in the cab and spin em for 20 or so feet, needless to say its a bit of a torque monster
