    No worries! I forgot to mention its a aftermarket rear bar, I think Addco? The rear frame rail spacing was correct, however I had to order much longer end links to get it installed correctly.

    Project: White Trash

    Made my decision on the transmission. Going to gut one of my overdrive A833's and throw the guts into my extra iron case. The ratios 1-3 are practically the same as 2-4 in the NP435, but now I'll be able to snick into a .73 overdriven 4th. That should have me at a very friendly 2k rpm on the...

    I actually got a few more things done on the ole girl. Mostly been my daily driver though. Replaced the wiper motor and the bushings in the linkage, works like new now. Building a 406 stroker for it and want the trans/exhaust done before the motor goes in. Found a set of Doug Thorley tri-y...

    Hydro roller cam for LA

    Yeah, I've been eyeballing the EQ heads for some time, as well as the Indy X. I have a few intakes to choose from, so I might experiment between the Airgap and the older performer.

    parting 74 no rust truck

    Looking for a smallblock bellhousing for the A833 overdrive transmission (5.125" pilot hole), not the NP435. Would you happen to have one?

    Hydro roller cam for LA

    Didn't see a engine section sooooo, figure I'll ask my question here. :-) I've decided to rebuild the NP435 instead of swapping to NV3500, I'm used to the gear spread now, and actually like it with the 2.90's out back. That, and I hear the 3500 trans is weak in comparison. That opens me up to...

    Working on that, the rear is easy, but the front has me concerned. I want to mess around with it when I rebuild the front end and see how much drop I can get away with without getting bad control arm/tie rod angles. If there is enough interest I' like to see if we can get someone to develop some...

    Thanks! I took a leap of faith with this wheel choice. I was going to get the Dukes of Hazzard style Vectors, but these popped up for cheap. Really, anything in my eyes is nicer than the previous wheels. LOL

    This in not internally regulated, still use the external which is a good thing. Current output is great at idle! I should have time to get the swap done toomorrow and I'l Post up the details. ;-)

    Oh, and for anyone that is interested, I can do a write-up for the Denso swap when I do it, its pretty simple. Plus, they came in sooooo many cars/trucks (Caravans, Dakotas, Durangos, Rams, ect) that they can be found in the yards freshly bolted on, and $25ea. I bought 3. Hahahah! Here is the...

    Doh! Can't do Saturdays, single dad to a 4yo so social things are pretty much out until she gets to be older and into cars like dad. Hahahah! I do usually have Sundays free though. Thanks for the invite!
