D150 with a RV 440, just to see what it will run

[318willrun]

today was a beautiful day! I thought to unload the truck off the trailer, and get things started. However..... I decided to play with my new chainsaw instead. I can't cut trees when they bloom because my allergies would have a "hay day".... (no pun intended)

 

[318willrun]

But.... we are counting down....

68 days to go!

I am proud it made its self a new great home, I actually went yesterday to pick up another 8.8 ford out of a 78 or 9 V8 Granada, rear drums, turned out to be a good heavy 8.8, always good to have a exack spring purch location of my 66 Plymouth Valiant Sedan, my 8 1/4 I build would not except low gears, 3.55 is what I would like or something close to 3.23 .
100 bucks, he loaded it with hose tractor, may go in my sons 88 short box hemi build, or my 66 A body. Congratulations on the transmission

• 14's - 22 people
• 13's - 11 people
