Holy crap, that is some cubes. How much power is rated at?



It's estimated at about low 500's on pump gas. It was built mainly for torque. The guy that built it said he put bigger valves, a cam (don't know specs) and shoule be good for about +/- 600 lb ft of low end torque.

Not sure what he used to build it or specs on hardware, but I'm adding a 750 Four Barrell Holley Carb, MSD ignition and removing the stock exhaust manifolds to slap on hooker headers. No cats, Flowmaster mufflers and I'm getting the stock c6 tranny refreshed. It already has 4:11 gears, but not sure if I should go with 3:73's for highway travel. I still have time to decide that.

No doubt it's gonna be a haulin' beast!

i would say keep the 4:11's a go with a AOD!!! with the big tirwes you might not need the od but it wont be any more expensive to just get a OD!

I got quoted $1,300. The guy said it can withstand tremendous torque and off road abuse. Tires are being swapped to 37's from those 35's too, so I'll leave the 4:11's.
