ratsun73 Posted February 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 thanks, that is my high school shop, the teacher is a professional mechanic that has run his own business for years, so its a great opportunity. I'm still thinking about what engine to put is this thing, i am leaning towards a 4.3 chevy vortex with a hei dizzy, an eddelbrock intake and a Holly 600 cfm carb, i might even be able to find some headers :devil: 2 Quote Link to comment

ratsun73 Posted February 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 not much of an update but I'm just trying to get in the habit of doing this daily. I got the fan, clutch and fly wheel off the 4.3 today 1 Quote Link to comment
dat77sun Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 why the 700r4? bad choice, go with a turbo 350 or 400, way stronger, or go with a nv3500 Quote Link to comment
ratsun73 Posted February 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 oh ok. ill look for a turbo 400 Quote Link to comment

Boxcar Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 The 700 R-4 and 208 T case combo is a very good unit . A bit large , but in your case a good choice. It will be much easier to find as it is more current than the turbo 400. The overdrive is a big advantage as well. Good to see you decided on a direction for the build. Quote Link to comment
ratsun73 Posted March 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 ok there is a 700r4 close to me, why is that better than say a turbo 350? i will have an update soon Quote Link to comment
heretic Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 for one....... 700R4 has over drive Quote Link to comment
