Welcome!

Sounds like a very good plan.

Spend a fair amount of time assessing the majority of you driving time and get that rear end ratio right! It's the difference between a constant annoyance and always enjoyable.

You should be able to find a ratio calculator for the 4L80E that will let you play with tire diameter, RPM, and rear end ratio.

so I have the casting burrs on the block all smoothed and the block is just about ready for prime then paint, I am using a limco single stage on the block can anyone recomend a good primer for painting an engine block?

also my compressor died last night so progress may be a little slower till I can replace it.

Make sure your "custom upload size" is set correctly. Top right, go to your account settings, scroll down to Upload Options. Change that to 1024x768 click on save and done.

I have been making slow progress on the car but nothing too note worthy just rust repair, but I do want to post something cool that happened, I won the ridetech shocks contest and got front shocks for my sons 72 ventura build, so he is very happy and motivated to get going on his car now.

What are these... pictures for ants?!!?

Haha just kidding.

Want my Speedtech tubular UCA's/LCA's? I'm looking to get hi-clearance ones.

Oh and PS.. I'm a fan of the color scheme!
