Sounds like a good plan. My brother had a GM 10 bolt behind a SBC 400 and a turbo350 in a Malibu wagon he had, it held up well, motor blew before the rear end did, and that car had a lot of weight to launch with :P

I have the 904, a TCI full manual valve body for it that needs to be installed, ordered a Hurst V-Matic 2 floor shifter for it because I think Hurst shifters are badass and it will fit in the black center console from a Hornet that I got for it :P and I'll probably get a 2500 stall torque...

Yeah, that's the base of the stroker, 4.2L crank and con rods in a 4.0L block, and then usually headwork and pistons for a nice setup. I'm not looking for a stroker though, it's great for bottom end torque but the Gremlin is a street car and doesn't need to be crawling around, it does that with...

And you can get a "crate motor", but it costs more than a rebuild on the shortblock should cost. They announced they were offering a Mopar 4.7L stroker crate motor, but I'm not looking for a stroker. There are a lot of companies that have been building those for years for cheaper than the Mopar...

It's a low miles motor that's going to be somewhat built for steet and strip. Ported head, ported intake manifold (offenhauser 4bbl carb intake), Davis Unified Ignition distributor, Crower perf. camshaft, Yella Terra roller rockers, stuff like that. I would feel a lot better having new cam...

I have a '96 4.0L, the shortblock needs a rebuild, I have a rebuilt head for it already. Looking for a machine shop in the area (I live in the SW 'burbs) to drop it off at for tear down, cleaning, machine work, and then longblock assembly. So far I've only been pointed to shops that only do...

Those pesky tremors.

Now on Comcrap at home =/

:smile: On the fiber at work.

:rofl: That pope one is damn creepy.

Water pump, oil pump, oil pickup & screen, fuel pump relay, and Holley blue electric fuel pump.

Damn, that thing is bad.

Those prank wars were awesome.

It's a conspiracy, clearly the Saudis own VW.
