383 stroker roller motor with trick flow heads. Shorty headers to a 3 inch pipe to a 40 flowmaster then dumped in front of the rear axle. edelbrock Victor JR air gap intake. Berry Grant silver claw 750 double pumper (the toilet bowl i call it) GM hot cam with 1.65 roller rockers. Ron Davis radiator. dual electric fans switched with a hot warning buzzer and light on dash. all fuel lines are braided and use -AN fittings. Holley fuel pump with a rear tank sump to supply.
Interior
Custom built roll cage. 5 point harness. Kept the bench seat.
Exterior
I installed the front clip from a 1978/79 only because i didnt like the 4 headlight front end (reminded me of my old parole officers car). Shaved the bed rails. flared the rear fender wells. Built a custom cowl hood (wide like the mustang 5.0)

Th350. Gforce cross member. G80 carrier, with 3.43 gears. Rear upper and lower arms non-adjustable Lakewood arms. Poly bushings all the way around, body mounts, control arms front and rear, upper and lower..
Suspension
Lowered all the way around by at least 2-3 inches. Bilstein shocks. Front springs from a s10.
Wheel and Tire
Rear 275-60r15 fit nice and tight. Front 235-55r15.
want to upgrade to a 17 inch wheel but dont really know how wide i can go. (alot of money to put out there just to find out they dont fit)
