Help me please tryin to beef up 318

You know the best solution is a bone stock 2bbl BB-A/T, out of anything. This neatly sidesteps the rear gear and TC issue. All you will need is some brand new sticky tires, steelies, and a traction aider. Oh yeah let's not forget the exhaust, and schumacher mounts. Let's see that adds up to about $1300 plus the BB. Poop!
