Thanks for the clips, looking forward to your turbo install. FI is also on my list after a rear gear install.
im tryin to get all parts in a pile so when I tear it down it will for a week instead of a month. I’ll keep y’all updated. I think I’m gonna use a corvette regulator to make it return style instead of using different rails completely

I haven't sold it yet... its still a roller. I haven't had time to put it back to stock yet. Soon enough. It deserves a good home... its only got 76k on it and the interior is flawless. Still have all the factory driveline parts to go in.

At the height of that build what was the best et it would run on a good night. It was making 700+hp correct?
Just trying to get a ballpark figure for mine.

I still think I’m gonna put a true 4x4case in there and have selectable 4wd.

I never got the most out of the 2300 before it was out the door so I wont even count that... but with the 1900, cam and bolt on mods with the 80e it went 11.43 at 118.5.

I would keep the AWD case. Its strong as hell.

something about blowing the tires off at 50mph is attracting. But traction is name of the game. I’ll probably keep it. Can’t find a whole lot of detailed info for the 80e swap. I know you have to swap input shaft on the tcase. Is there a lot involved?

In the grand scheme of the build the price of the modified input gear adapter isn't terrible. When I did mine I had the transfer case gone through at the same time. Time2Kill is the guy I got in contact with for the input gear adapter.

plenty of info for the trans swap out there, I meant not a whole lot of info for the input shaft stuff on the transfer case
