It has the diesel drum which holds extra clutches, Raybestos blue plates, means steels, LFP valve body, B&M deep aluminum pan. Everything I could think of to make one last. Rob wanted 950 plus R&R for both trucks. I will swap this for a good working trans for 1,000 cash installed turn key job. Throw in another 400 for an Art Carr 2400 converter and you will be set up tight:tu:. Our normal built trans is 2000 plus 250 for R&R. Half price ain't bad. I need to have your truck at the shop ASAP Friday or Saturday for the swap. If you have ever driven a built trans truck you would know it is like a mod all in itself.

This thing is looking more like a stolen truck by the minute. I am not wasting any time getting the job done. Just be patient as I have a lot of trucks to transfer and install parts to. The drivetrain and exhaust is out! Tomorrow will be Ron's engine pull then back together with them.

Tom
Transmission is SOLD:nana2 . I like my insane deals what Rob doesn't know can't hurt him:D .
Holy Crap Terry....you just picked the truck up this morning!!!!!!!!! Since your getting so good at swapping the motors....do I get a discount:d ?
I sent you a PM.....I don't know if I can handle seeing a pick of my truck without the heart.
You are going to crush Rob with that pick:( . I have been trying to talk him out of all this....I guess it is done now.
Rocks:crying:
Did you buy the tranny??? If I hadn't run out of money, I would own that too.Quote:

Yep. If I would have known beforehand about the mass sell off I would have fought you for the motor.:hammer:Quote:

I would like to get into the nines with it now. My goal was originally to take the stock block and super charger into the 11's.....I got that done. Now let's see if I can make my next goal.
Rocks:nana2
I think everytihing is spoken for/or mine:D . Ron you owe me big for the PITA your truck has been. I spent 4 hours trying to get the headers off the truck:hammer: . After using the air hammer, blow torch, and pipe wrench they came out:throw: . Then all of that idler crap, Eaton over tortqued, stubborn engine mount bolts, freaking plasma booster:flaming: . The result today was two motors side by side which is which:d .

Geeze Terry,
:beer:
Rocks
Ron,
I thought all your idler sh!t looked cool. How much do you want for it? :cool:
Make me an offer Dennis......I will try to forget about you ignoring me in Florida.Quote:

Thanks Terry. You got the old blower taken off and Ron's Apten installed in about 1 hr. Now all we have left are the gauges and the heat exchanger. knana I'm kinda takin it easy right now since I still have the 2lb upper on and the 4lb lower with my old tune. Gotta get to the dyno and see how everything looks. So far no detonation.

By the way....with the combo you have on there now, I pulled off a 12.18 in Florida...LOL. Be careful...and no open road WOT runs if you want to keep your rods.
Rocks:nana2

Wow....check out the new, GAY, smilies Doug set up.
Rockshttp://www.svtgalleries.net/gallery/data/500/226532.gif..................I like this one.
I'm just following Tom's example, I believe this is how he's running his. I may grow a pair and leave the 4lber on there. I gotta wait untill I get my boost gauge so I know how much fire I'm playing with.
Call me Adam...........It would be easier than typing. Here is the dyno I got from 16lbs of boost. That is about what your making with the 4lb lower and 2lb upper. I think I have a couple bolt on's you don't, but it will be close.Quote:

Yep. I dropped back down to the 2# pulley when the Apten went on. I'm planning on putting the 4# pulley on tonight. I'm getting a lot of belt slippage with the 2# now, so I'm going to slap the 4 back on to see what happens. should help with my low torque numbers as well.

Cool. Have you run with the Apten yet?
We went out to Denton last night. Air and temps weren't in our favor, but it felt good. Still havent taken it to a 1/4 mile track, so I don't know where it will perform on the big end. Consistent 8.40s at 84.xx on street tires.Quote:

With the 2# yesterday (on my new program from Swanson and a different dyno) I pulled 410/460-ish with approximately 14# boost. It is weird because the boost gauge jumps to 10, stays there for a second and then jumps to 14 which implies to me belt slippage. We'll see if I can correct that.
Tom
Those dyno numbers don't sound too far off. That's about what I made at 14lbs. I may have had a bit more torque.Quote:
