Needs all the front accessories as well. My dad was looking and figured it would cost another $2k or so to complete which he does not have right now. I told him he needs to sell his old trans and we need to pull the motor and sell it and he could do it quicker!

There is no way I will be able to afford a blower anytime soon so he will spank me for a while when this gets dropped in.

Does he want to make the the accessory drive pretty or just work? If he just wants to make it work, and you have cores laying around, you probably can get everything you need from Autozone (Duralst) for a few hundred bucks. In other words, less than 1G$ altogether if you try hard.

I am not sure what he wants to do as far as blingy vs functional. We are have so much sh1t sitting in the garage waiting to be done I do not think the engine at this point is the push, short of getting the one we have running.

The swap can be done in 6 hours by one guy. I can attest to that.


The trouble is the little shit.


You got the frames mounts yet?

The "Streetfire" is virtually an identical copy of the original GM HEI dizzy. Very reliable, and hard to beat.(All parts interchange).
