Thanks for keeping up with my labor of love (SPEED!!). Close as I can figure I've spent about $891 not including parts for the 390 stroker. But then again, I'm going way overboard on some of these things because I'm crazy and I like to make stuff. My plan was to build a 390 stroker with around 375/400 HP. But the more I think about it I'm wondering how the car will launch with the lower 1st gear (2004R) and 4:10s in the rear. The 318 in my Cuda run real good. I already have a new posi in the rear end. If it launches like I want I may not have to build the 390??? I've bought the rods, adj rockers, heads and valves already and all I need is the crank , pistons, cam kit & timing chain. So I'm pretty close. If it car does well with the tranny and gears I might just sell the engine stuff...but we'll see. The 390 sounds so sexy:burnout:.
Thanks again for reading my posts. I wish more folks would comment or suggest, I'm flying blind here!!!
PS- I just bought a '67 fastback Cuda for parts. It's a pretty nice body with no front suspension, no engine, no tranny but it does have a bigger rear end with these neat wide aluminum wheels. Real nice front and rear stainless!! It also has the grill stuff and many interior parts. I hate to do it but I'll probably cut it up for parts to sell. I'll post pics tomorrow. Maybe somebody can tell me what type of rear it has.
