Very nice! That motor is very very close to the 383 I've got in the 64 right now and let me tell you it puts a grin on my face from ear to ear every time I hit the skinny pedal. Your going to love that motor.
If your running regular street tires and they aren't wide then you will simply burn them off the car and shouldn't damage the rear end. If your running stickies or a wide tire that has some traction then you may want to think about a ford 9" under it. =)

Running a little wider tire. Looks like we are gonna have to plan and budget for the rear end.

It has a 373 in it now. I know that we will have to change it, but I will be happy to make it through a day being able to just drive it.

Very impressive, should rattle a few windows when you fire it up in the neighborhood.

I am glad that the way that the garage is set up, that I don't drive between houses to pull it out. That kind of echo would not be good when you want to leave early in the morning. My neighbors kinda like me now, don't want to make em mad. I honestly don't think that the car is any louder now than it was when it left over a year ago. I think that the flowmasters have always made it sound beefy. But now it "is" really beefy.

My brother texted me last night and said the motor is in my car. They did not get the car running cause he ran out of energy. He spent the weekend at Norwalk and told me that the first round of eliminations on Saturday went til 5am on Sunday morning. He lasted thru the 2nd round. Sounded like he got home around 6pm. Then he had dinner plans and finally made it home at 9pm Sunday night. Then he got up and was at DART at 9am Monday morning to pick up my motor. So I am still here keeping my fingers crossed. Oh, by the way my brother was racing his 1972 Corvette.
