I prefer PB&J with less preservatives but hay to each his own.

I searched back some and see you have a trans by Cope.I have the A&A stuff also but put togather by a local trans guy who has done mine for a long time but is retired now so it will be Cope next time[200+ passes]

had tranny for 5 years then went away and did same thing....a&a stuff also which is where cope gets his stuff......A&A guy is top shelf and really helped my tranny guy do it up with all the heavy duty parts

Good thing you went after it. I bet that motor makes over 800 horses. A tough street life with drag racing etc, I would say that you did very well and the parts have held up well. You can't really ask for more from your monster! So heres to another great 5 years!! :cheers:

Got to be worth it George the videos I have seen on that car are great. You can tell it is making lots of power. And we all know the more power you make the more parts you break! I Hope I have good luck with my Hemi. It has The Eagle Rods and Crank and has Je pistons. I am sure once I learn the Engine I will be playing with it. I had 3 400s built into Strokers. One 474 which was pretty reliable as a bracket engine. It had the Stage 6 Mopar heads. My 499 had all B-1 Stuff and it was hard on Rocker arms etc. T and D made a fix but it was expensive. The last one had all Indy stuff and I did not run it long enough to see how it was. I know you are building more power with your rebuild and I am sure we will be impressed!
Hang in there, "it is only money" and remember "If it was cheap everybody would do it"
Thanks for the lead on the book!!!
