didnt it dyno in the low 400's before??
Car dynoed 405 RWHP & 418 RWTQ all motor. That will probably go down a tad with the new Automatic tranny though. Car has never seen the track though. Look forward to seeing you guys at the track as well! Thanks again,

just look thru this tread, great job on the car. what size is that belt i am planning on running the same style set up. i dont need smog, power steering, or ac. hell i want an electric water pump but not sure how that would work.
I think it's 47.5" my car is a 351 based motor and every car may be slightly different. Just take a string wrap it around the pulleys and mark how long it is. Then take it to Napa or where ever and tell them you want a belt 1/2" shorter than your string. Worked on the first try for me.

Great numbers Orange. I look forward to watching that orange streak fly down the track.
I'm a little nervous that it's going to be slow. My BOSS never performed to it's full potential and this car has never seen the track in any form, so I have no idea where it will be. Not to mention that I'm gonna have to learn to drive this reverse manual automatic. I'm excited as hell to get out there though, but a streak may be an over statement. You know how it is, I don't want to set my expectations to high and then get my heart broken.
then think of it as a hond fit until your first run 
i think you would be happy

i think you got a wheelie puller in you hands. Cant wait to see what does.
If the car was gonna have a transbrake I would say maybe, but it will only have a 2500 stall converter which means I can't launch the car real high. If I ever get a trailer I'll switch to a brake and all hell will break loose!

why so low of a stall?
Yeah, only because I have to drive to the track. The stall converter was calculated by cam, tire size and rear gearing.
