hey guys thanks for all the warm welcomes, ill try and get some pics up asap. my car is a stock slant six right niw because i am doing som structural repairs to her, new floor, frame straightening, i put on a whole new front end cause it was wrecked. it was a freind if mines and he wrecked it and couldnt afford to fix and didnt know how to either. so after she is in running order im going to be putting in a 440 six pack with around 600HP, frame connectors, rear trac bars 4:11 posi and prbably some cragars with 275's or 295's in the rear. she will be my daily driver as well so im thinkin a 727 with like a 4000 converter. i was driving an '89 firebird formula, but i recently got in to an accident with her and i now have to rebuild her whole front end. the axel is broke and all. ill definately go ad join LIMA. talk to you guys later

[novadose454]

Welcome!

[RICHIESBLOWN34]

Hey , thats all I can say, wellcome , the 440 sounds good but if its your daily driver ya just might want to lower that converter, 4000 is a bit on the daily driver. Buy the way you and your friend should maybe take a driving course, ya seem to be prone to accidents...WTF!:violent1::poke:

[novadose454]

dont listen to richie.....new guy.....hes a douche......the stall speed sounds good....you might want to do a 456 with a spool....hooks up good.....and..anything below 12.5 -1....compression...is for girlymen....

[RICHIESBLOWN34]

Gears are good ...the converters to loose for around town unless you want to stay in 2 gear all day......under 4000 the converter gonna slip and slip meens heat and you know what next........water temp climing...not good.... watch out for any advice from Nova, they say hes got Old Timers.....dont know what the fuck hes talking about ! Hes got a Jazzy thats dressed up to look like a Nova...he looks retarded in that Jazzy...they make him where a helmet for safty reasons....might fall outta the cart...and cause more damage...like there could be any more damage, yah right ...might straighten him out!!!:violent1:

[novadose454]

sure ..your direct drive willys is some piece....gotta push start it...and then pray you dont have to stop at a light or something....there are things like oil cooloers..for engines and for trannys.......oh yeah you should know what a tranny is......you cross dressing fool.......stick with your red pumps and camisole and let the real men drive thier cars....you just keep pushing that walmart shopping cart..and keep greeting people at the door....

[FANTASY FACTORY]

440 YA SAY,
well if you dont know already. you cant go swapping engines like a GM in that A-body. every engine series requires the correct K Member, 6cy. la, b/rb.
440 is taller than a 383, you are going to be getting into some very specific parts ($$) for a project like that. I'd start a comparision list against a small block first.

[novadose454]

true..crossmember is different....damn mopars ...not really that great on things like that...thats why they cost so damn much to build ....at least it had the larger bolt pattern than the 68 models had.....another pain in the ass.....try and find parts for that stuff.....lots of upgrading....so lets get started and build that puppy......

[RICHIESBLOWN34]

Cheap way out maybe an engine plate.Nova shut up ,your a fool, you forgot your Prozack today

[novadose454]

sure put an engine plate in it..and you can vibrate all over town with the damn thing....wake up richie......you would be better to get some car craft and hot rod issues and learn what real cars are supposed to be like.....only one i see is the one you bought from someone who actually races.........

[spikeybabe22]
