Did I mention that this is a LOW buck project.

The engine is a 455 with 6x-8 heads, a CC Magnum 292H cam/Rhoads lifters, and some free 3-tube headers. It has a TH400 tranny with a converter of unknown stall speed.

The rear is a 12-bolt with either 4.11 or 4.56 gears(I forget which). Either will be OK, since our local track is 1/8 mile. I'll pull the axles and try to check everything out. It's been quite a while since the car made a pass.

It still needs a good driveshaft and a few other improvements before going to the track. But, I sure hope to make a pass or 2 next season.
