Its a 64 4 speed with a 408 stroker motor from blueprint. Unfortunately the rear end is still a 7-1/4 so im saving for a 8-3/4 to replace it. Its not a show car but a solid driver. It has front disc's and I plan on converting to rear disc at the same time as I replace the rear end. I also need to install lap belts.
Nice combo. Just FYI a 81/4 is good yo about 500 HP and then you can steal a track lock and rear disks from a 90's Jeep What I run in a 440 dart. Tons of good info on this site and we have a blueprint builder also on here. @Johnny Mac

Man this has to be the quote of the year!
But that warmed up 360 will be WAY more smiles per gallon. If that's not why you're in this hobby, then, join a Prius club.

Ehhh doesn’t seem like it. Schedule slipping pretty quickly. Framers want to wait till windows come in(back ordered now till mid November), which pushed the siding guy to back out of doing the siding as he doesn’t work past Nov 1 as he leaves for his second home in Florida. So having to hunt for a new siding guy.
Well the Blue Jays are going, hope they beat the Dodgers!
Nahh, New guys don't read back either...kkkkk
Dung Roi..!!!!
So close yet so far Chris.
I don't know who All is but hey....Good Morning All
Well that must include me lol! Good Morning Tike!
Good morning.
Talking with body guy yesterday he was asking if I wanted subframe connectors put on, am I building a 408 etc. after I told him I'm doing a mild to med HP 340 for street. Seems guys do that, had a home builder do that when we were talking about the shop, mother in law apt, finished upstairs etc. etc. Body guy does have a good eye so will take on some of his ideas I think
I would say yes
I would if I had a hot engine. Hard to justify them when I run the stock 2 barrel 318 in both cars.
Well if you look at where the rear quarter panel is cracked where it connects to the roof. Almost all of the old cars have that. That is a direct result of body twist and even 6 cyl. cars have it. So my thoughts are if I put the time into a nice paint job put connectors on. AND there are 2 versions. Again my thoughts are get the ones that connect to the floor. Those that are just a piece of square tubing helps but is not as good.
