Sounds awesome.
I had planned to go with a FAST system as well. I have spent the last 6-8 months researching EFI systems and plan to go with this. http://fitechefi.com/default.asp.pg-Products Lots of good systems out there but these guys have a ton of flexibility built in and the feedback is awesome from the reviews. If you aren't looking to do over 600HP you can add a system for $1400 with everything. Check out their fuel command center, its kind of ingenious. |

I still have some research to do on the throttle-body EFI systems. Holley has a good one too. |

Nice choice with the auto. What rear end is it? My current car is a t56 and I just really liked my 4l60e better.. and its just faster, easier to drive, smoother... and just damn better. Never again t56! Last edited by hometeam; 12-17-2015 at 10:52 PM.. |

All of my hotrod friends have 396's, 454's or 383 strokers. Come to think of it, seems like every other hotrod has a stroker motor in it these days. You just don't see too many 327's nowadays. That's for sure. ![]() |

Nice looking pickup man. I'll say it again, you're way tougher than me owning a black rig. My pearl white one I posted recently is tough enough to keep clean. Quote:

Yeah, I'd change out the wheels if I were you. The fenders are made for the ginormous wheels. I don't know what you're thinking, but some of the GM wheels are pretty decent looking. Oh, and do the wheels fairly soon so you can dump the factory tires without wear. I still have them on mine and they are beyond worthless. |

Yeah. Chevy, Dodge and Ford are definitely in a battle for who has the biggest and baddest hp right now. Going to be really tough to top the Hellcat, but I imagine somebody will eventually. That's kind of cool to see. Nothing I would want to have on the street though.
I am fine with 425-450hp. Should be more streetable and funner to drive. For me, anyways. I have a backup plan. If I want to go with a little more power I am going to go with a little roots blower. Like the Weind 142. |

But yes.. all your LS/LQ motors that enthusiasts love are small blocks. I had a 396 stroker in my black T/A and i REALLY loved that car. However, my 396 was an LS small black with a massive stroke and is a different 396 than you think of, since the old 396 was a big block motor. |

I do dig the builds they are doing these days with small blocks to match the big block numbers. ie: 427 and 454 small block builds.
