Original rear end 10 bolt with a pro series posi and c-clip eliminator kit. That I made my own gaskets for to seal it. 3.73 gears. All richmond and eaton products.
4 link is boxed in and adjustable. Factory parts, I bought steel stock from the steel plant and welded them together. Looks factory under there. Just a few extra bolt holes for adjustments once we get that far. Energy Suspension bushings. All front end parts ball joints, tie rods etc are new.
69 disc brake spindles. I couldn't find the calipers for the 68 4 piston spindles I got. Don't matter it is a 307 malibu. But it would have been a nice touch.
Pair of 68 muncies I rebuilt one last year. The other is for when I tear this one to shreds. Hurst competition plus shifter.
I am getting a crate 454 mercruiser engine I so impressed with them after the one I put in the van. Dynoed and guaranteed to have at least 500 HP and 550 tq. Not shabby for a daily driven grocery getter I a thinkin.
I have a 454 4 bolt main but after finding this I liking it alot.
I got to buy interior and engine everything else I got and is done just needs assembled. I gettin it whittled down and getting ansty to drive it now. Interior in the spring once it is in we in the home stretch. Now undercoating and putting the brakes together. Stereo in are the next projects.
Here is a you tube of the engine in question. Smooth idle and torque off idle. Perfect for the little whoops sideways shifts. Tame enough for the air conditioning and power brakes. Enough power to be fun to drive.
