Getting ready to pull the existing (too mild) 350 that was in the car when we bought it last year.
Working with engine shop to finalize build of new motor, and should (conservatively) be in the 450/400 (hp/tq) range.
Current 350
Have already done Wilwood front disc conversion as well as dual master cylinder (for safety). Will also have Muncie r&r'd along with rear end.
1. Plan to also use stronger drive shaft and rear axles (again just for safety). Has anyone here done same, and if so could you please send suggestions?
2. Any preferences/recommendations better aluminum radiator that still fits stock shroud, mounting points?
Would like to get car off the lift in the next three months, and any advice on above would really help!
These made a huge difference in terms of how the car stops. Also converted to a dual master cylinder at the same time (for safety).
Currently getting the car ready for a stronger little 383, along with removing some weight from the car (aluminum cylinder heads, intake, Li battery, etc.).
What rear end gear are you currently running? Now might be the time to think seriously @ a TKX 5 speed and forgo having the Muncie r&r'd ! Just sayin' . . . Good Luck with your project!
The car has a 3:36 posi (and M21 Muncie). New motor is fairly mild, and dyno'd at 423/460. I'd like to get the car back on the pavement in the next two months, so may look at a five speed down the road a bit (unless there is a solid vendor that offers a complete/readily available kit?).
In the event of sticking with the M-21, is there a reputable transmission vendor that anyone can recommend to R&R the box?
