Wow, you weren't messing around ordering that motor. Geez, she should go real nice. 9's on pump gas!

That's what I'm hoping for. :spin:

Got a few more odds and ends done recently.

Took out the 4:88 and swapped in some 4:10 gears on the posi unit.

Noticed something in the axle tube I have never seen before. Both axle tubes have a pressed in steel insert that starts right after the c-clip eliminator and goes into the center section just short of the carrier bearings. I guess they were installed to strengthen the axle tubes? You can see the machined/cut end of the insert inside of the axle tube in this picture.

I also installed some QA1 Endura Chromoly series rod ends on the 4-link to get those bushed units out of there. I just didn't trust those "street rod" type bushed rod ends to hold the power. The QA1's have a Nylon/PTFE injected ball race to keep them quiet under normal driving. Very nice part if you ever need anything like that.

And finally got those Thrush Turbo mufflers out and installed some Borla ProXS mufflers under it. These are offset straight thru design and they sound great, very deep and more defined than the old muflers. I'll try to get a video uploaded soon. At less than $100 each for a stainless steel performance muffler I highly recommend them.

Borlas have been highly recommended as of late.
Nice work!

Well UBER coughed up a hairball, Lol.

I wasn't ready to jump in and redo the front suspension yet (was about to a order customer drive shaft). but I had an upper control arm bushing come out while at Cruising' the Coast. But since it had to come apart, why spend $$$ on repairing the old when the change over was going to happen anyway?

So after a month long back order wait, I finally got Global West's Drag Series upper/lower control arms (TLC-42 & TLC-42H). I also installed AFCO's A-body double adjustable coil over conversion kit (3840F/BNC shocks & GM450 springs). A note about the lower control arms is that there is no sway bar provision. Not a problem for me as UBER and high speed cornering didn't mingle well anyway, I always cornered at low speeds. So off came the sway bar as well. Every thing came together and worked well with the drop spindles I already had on it.

The upper arms added more caster to the alignment for better straight line stability and reduced bump steer.

Also, in doing this I took 28 pounds off the front end. Not a huge amount, but I'll take what I can get.

Getting rid of that front sway bar will help immensely with weight transfer as well. This thing is a beast, now put some 88's on it!

Yep, sway bar is gone bye-bye. That alone was 13 pounds off the front end.

BTW, what's 88's? LoL
