i got it dyno tested and it made 473 hp @ 5200 and 526 ft. lb. @ 4200. was already making 500 ft. lb. @ 3000 where the dyno started reading. i am starting on the rear end which is a 12 bolt which will have the big bearing ford ends welded on which also use the gm drum brakes, 33 spline axles, detriot tru-trac w/ 3.08 gears. i built a th400 and had it tested on a tranny dyno. it has an ati valve body, 2.75 first gear and approx 2800 stall speed. will hopefully only have it down for a week. once the camaro is buttoned up i will start onĀ it, hopefully this week. the torque curve is almost like a diesel.
