th350 is the tranny i pulled from it, replaced with muncie 3 speed plus creeper gear
I run the 650 for gas conservation, i have a proDominator 1050 for when i get the urge to woop on it
Don't give me any shit about vehicles
i could park my truck on top of your pos

[Rage]

your hunk of fuck couldnt catch my pos

and why would you be so dumb to post and what it had and what it has thats pointless.

650 aint saving gas its starving a motor and most likely idles ruff and 1050 is to much dude a 454 needs between 750 to 800, 900 with an agressive cam

[CHEVY_454_POWER]

You don't know anything about big blocks obviously. With brodix 2 heads and a heavy thumper cam, eagle hp pistons, it roars with a 1050.
Has your POS jeep ran a 14.5? I have, no not with a 13 lift or 38.5's, but when it sat factory with 31 street strip Bfg's it did. That was also when the th350 was in, I tore it to shit.

[Rage]

do you honestly think id dump money into a jeep come on there alright but not a GC yeah they got coil suspension which is nice but its not a racer

all im saying it 650 might run it but at 1050 doesnt your truck run 8000 rpms or so

and your right im not dead nuts on big blocks im more rice and diesel to each his own but my car is gettin closer to layin some good times at the track with no bolt on mods done to it

[CHEVY_454_POWER]

i never tach over 7200, big block= mid to top end, with the 1050 on it i tached it to 8100 once and it wasn't doing anything but screaming

[Rage]

is the motor/ vehicle to old to have a rev limiter, my four banger topped at 6000 till i removed the limiter know it runs 7200 which screams but i wish some how i could make the top end high it tops at 120 and really wanna hit 150

[CHEVY_454_POWER]

it came out of a 71 chevelle ss

[Rage]

how the hell you afford all that shit on your truck

[CHEVY_454_POWER]

My stepdad and grandfather both own their own garages and body shops, i get stuff for dirt cheap or free.

[Rage]

nice, i gotta pay full price for all my shit so mods come slow, im hoping to work the oil fields this summer so i can afford to do an evo conversion on my eclipse

[CHEVY_454_POWER]

Evo conversion is gonna be expensive. Your probably just better of buying an old GSX and restoring it. You can use the drivetrain from an evo but its gonna be hard to find and you will have to do alot of custom fabrication to make it fit. That can be the cool part though. Btw, i think you know already but I got a Jeep, 2000 Cherokee Sport I6, AW4, NP231. It is pretty nice.

[Rage]

Its like 20,000 so im probably gonna pass and just put an evo 7 head and turbo on it and call it good,

That style of jeeps have a lot of problems with the blend doors, the HVAC on them gets messed up and there isn't as much off road potential in them but there nice and look good with about 3 inches of lift.

[CHEVY_454_POWER]

Well then it ain't going to be an evo conversion. That would have to include AWD. You must not be thinking about the Jeep I have, they have great offroad potential. They are light, I6 is torquey, SFA. I don't have the wimpy dana 35 rear. I have the Chrysler 8.25, which is beefy. It has seen offroad already and performed quite well for a factory vehicle. All it needs is a 4 or 6 inch lift, bigger rubber, and I want to lock it front and back.

[Rage]

I know what the conversion involves, i stated because of the cost and putting in a new rear section and all that it would be easier for me to just swap heads and turbo it instead of getting into the AWD conversion.


My bad i thought you said you had a Grand Cherokee instead of a regular Cherokee, the regular ones are some going sum bitches. I was gonna buy a cheap one to beat the shit out of this summer before i leave but i aint got any more room at my place to park it.

That 6 banger is a damn good motor, they usually need rebuilt around 100,000 miles but the got more torque then most gas v8 motors.

[CHEVY_454_POWER]

Hell yeah, they are definately torquey. I have a new set of rubbers on the jeep because of it, well that and the locker I just got. Smoke'em all day. I have to do something with the exhaust though. I am thinking glass packs, but that might be to raspy.

hey i dont hae a licence but i can and do drive and i ride a YAMAHA WR-250F

[CHEVY_454_POWER]

JORDAN, we are talking about driving vehicles, not dirt bikes. What year is your bike? I am looking into buying a '99 YZ400F, really nice shape, and about 14 hours of run time on it. They want 1,400 bucks for it, but I might just go and offer 1,000 grand cash in hand and see if they take it.

Hey Rage, I finally got the Jeep locked and lifted. I got a rough country 4 inch, and Woods SYE for the rear, I guess it isn't needed but it helps. And put a detroit tru track in the front, and an eaton posi in the rear. I am looking for tires now. I have 29's on it and it looks dumb as hell. I might try and fit 35's under it, but I want flex, so I ain't sure yet. I am sure that I am getting the BFG's MT 2, lot's of good review on them and the aren't too pricey.

How is your Jeep doing?

And I know there is alot more drivers out there, speak up fuckers.

I've had a license since I was 15 1/2 (minimum age), but then they took it away when I was 48, about 4 years ago.(NO, I Wasn't DUI). I just got it back 6 mos. ago but now I'm stuck in this here Cactus Country with no car .... details, details. Had a M/C endorsement, too-- I loved to ride Brit Bikes--Triumph Bonnevilles and such (hear that HeadCase? I like Some things British. Jaguars /Aston Martins/Spitdfires/MG's are cool, too.)

And Chevy 454..you mean talking Cars, not "vehicles". M/C are vehicles, too. They get you 'round in style, also.
