Default A bit more power

A #350/270 engine/TH400 can out of the 71 this summer, and the original engine came in today, now as a 383
New FTI converter, and a Transgo kit was also installed.

Maybe later, my spare 3.70 rear will come into the car also (is 3.08 today)

Oh, it's not my car, it's a friend.

The best thing i ever did to my 80 Vette was get rid of the 3.08 gears, and install 3.55 gears. The car now accelerates and drives way better. I have 350 HP and 390 TQ.

I have 3.70 rear from the factory in my 69 L46 car. And I love it, not long ago, I installed a T5WC 176 transmission, that makes even better.
