Default My T/A Christmas gift

I sold my red Formula but kept the procharged 455 out of it, went through it, changed bearing, 236-244 solid roller, ported 4X heads with chambers opened up to 121cc (7.8 to 1compression)t-400 trans, 3.08 posi 10 bolt rear.ect... and droped it in this 81 Trans Am I've been working on for 3 years. Just finished it except with a few small details here and there. It only had 64,000 miles on it when the 301 expired and has been garaged ever since, soooo, no rust anywhere and no dents. The guy that I got the car from had it more than 10 years and just didn't want it and just gave it to me. We totally disassembled the car and I built it the way I wanted. 77-78 front nose, Changed the color from Charcoal to black. New interior, dash, 160 speedo, 8000 tach, Vintage air a/c, and Restore A Musclecar platinum T/A graphics. Body and engine is solid mounted with urathane bushings throughout the suspension. Stock sway bars with 600 lbs springs up front. On the chassis dyno I stoped it at 5000 rpms and the torque had just peaked at 567 lbs. It was table top flat in the 560's up to that point at 5000 rpm shut down. Hp was 540 with an agressive uphill curve. I didn't want to take it any farther as I already worked too hard on everything just to have to pull it all apart again. Yes it drives awesome and 100-120 mph is effortless. I've waited a long time for a car like this.
