Cheaper than dirt 318 build

AJ I am thinking his tire size is off, a stock tire is a 235-15 which is 28" tall.
It really does not matter, years ago I put 4.56 behind a slant OD, it still sucked.

I did have an 80 d-150 that was not that bad, slant, but the auto went bad on me, put a NP435 behind it, the truck actually pulled good, I was happy with the trans change, but I remember the bell-housing was a sob to find.

The crank and rods in a 225 are so heavy it ends up using all its power just to get that internal mass moving instead of accelerating the vehicle once shorter gears are put in lmao. I wish so badly Chrysler made a diesel variant, it's literally already built like one.
