Be very careful with a 305 in your truck bed, they have been known to power up and tear thru the cab. Talk about snot flying.
lol, again with the snot. hasn't been much of an issue lately.
might have been a good thing for the engine to start up. that 2.8/700R4 in the truck wasn't even safe. I'd hate to end up in front of a semi. _________________

All kidding aside Nate, You have a lot of guts starting a frame-off at age 17. It looks like the project is coming along nicely. Also seems like you have became somewhat of an expert concerning information on brake conversions. My hat's off to you.
Now where was we on 305s?

All good here Down Under. Our economy is still strong but it seems our Government are trying their best to stuff it up.
Hey, what's this about our accents? We don't have accents you Americans have accents _________________ John (from Down Under)

I appreciate the encouragement, but I think I'll wait to see whether it stops, or if I get some new sheet metal before I call myself an expert, lol. gotta figure out them rear brakes at some point...
yeah, but back to 305's, I want to see if mine can take a 400 shot of nitrous... I'd have almost 1 HP per cube _________________

You guys are crazy. lol. I'm a tough girl though, I can take it as well as dish it out! haha! John, we may have accents to you but an aussie could just read me the Three Little Pigs and I'd be happy! LOL!
Aside from all of that, I am just about ready to put the motor back into 'Pedro'! (well me and my friend Rob) I've put everything together myself but I'm still learning. I'll get it though, just need some time. I cleaned up the engine compartment and just need to get it to the car wash for a good rinse and then I'll be in business. I'm hoping to have it done in a week or so. The exhaust is another story though.... I need a welder. _________________ Bleeding knuckes are worth it when you're building an awesome Elky.
