Re: Crossbred, 454 into an '85 Ram

Thanks, not to many Mopar guys are happy with me. I have nothing against Chysler motors either---its all i really know to be honest. But i can't give the truck up and Chevy stuff is generally cheaper and plentiful. Plus i am at a time in my life where i dont care what others think, for god sakes its all the same metal when it gets melted down.

On another note, i do like the design aspects of a big block chevy over the small block, but obviously they cost more to build.

On the brake booster, i am going to do one of two things. Ether try and raise it up a hair or get the smaller booster for it. Right now i kinda stopped as this week i am working on our 1920 model T pickup--its stock, slow, and cool.
