Yeah, should have replaced the bearings, but the original plan, (which I forgot to mention) was to run this engine until winter, and build a blown beast over the cold months. However, construction equipment sales are a little slow right now, and I don't expect to see the $ 6,000 I was counting on. Priorities, priorities...
Anyway, you only reccomend the 3.55's? running a lot of curves and turns, will I really feel a difference? I know I will with the 4.30's, since I'll be running a majority in the lower gears(1-3)?
GT40-P heads are popular around here, with explorer intakes. Makes great power, too. I think guys around here are running the B cam, though (?) could be wrong, I'll have to check tomorrow night.
