I power washed the truck today and the green mold is gone along with minor grease in the engine compartment. I started figuring out my drive train...mostly which trans & engine.

Trans will be a built TH350 able to handle up to 700HP

I have a shop I can go to that will take the powerglide as a partial trade for the work.

The engine on the other hand will be a stock bore and stroke 5.3L with this intake:http://www.jegs.com/i/Holley/510/300...ductId=1646023 and a pair of 600 cfm carbs. More than likely a pair of shiny DP's since I have one already laying aside.

Cam will be from Comp:

Duration @ .050” 239°/243°

Lift with 1.7 Rockers .624“/.624“

Lobe Sep. Angle 109°
