426 Wedge possible install challenges
Then I woke up one day and pulled it out. I replaced it with a re-cammed, junkyard EFI'd 5.9 Magnum bolted to a 727. It wasn't long before I upgraded to a 500 hp 408 Magnum bolted to a 2004R with a Reid Bellhousing.
Now that motor is out and I'm replacing it with an 820 flywheel hp 408 Magnum based motor with Edy CNC'd heads, and a Holley Terminator Max controller with a Stage 2, re-geared 4L60 from Performabuilt Transmissions.
It simply as addicting as it ever has been. Captain Kirk explained it best when he told Scotty, "I've got to have more power!"
