yeah it went right in with a pilot bearing spacer, and some shims on the converter bolts to make sure it doesnt pull out the converter too far.

stall is too big, out of a big block truck, so we are gunna try a 3000 my friend has laying around.

then its going to the track with a set of 28s on it

12.1 @ 111
1.70 60ft

not bad at all for a first outing on 10psi.

truck needs gears badly, 3.23s are killin it, corey is going to run a 3.73 and a 28 inch tire, should be right on the money.

4000 stall is blowing through badly up top
