been off work for a few months due to an achilles decompression surgery, and have way to much time on my hands, planning upgrades.. my little truck currently has a 360 , 6 pack in it with a 727 and 3:91's.. i had built a 512 , 440 based stroker for my gtx , but decided to sell the car and it's currently being planned to put in the truck.. , so i think i can go a few different routes. keep the 727 and do some 3:23's in the rear or keep the 3:91s ad maybe do a 518 swap?? what do you guys think.. will the 518 survive the 512??? it will be a street truck with maybe an occasional 1/8 th mile blast ... the ultra bell bell housings sure aren't cheap. i had thought about the gear vendors overdrive , but they are just to damn expensive by the time they get to canada... $4000.00 can plus duties and freight would be a $5000.00 bill ... and if i go 518 can i run a 2400 rpm stall converter??? the truck now absolutely fries the tires at 50km/h on dry pavement , and i know i don't need the 512 , but i got it so i might as well use it..
