I thought they were pretty good too. I was gonna look at the brodies and see how they matched up. I dont think i'll ever take this guy up to the "big boy" level though

as much as I would like some aluminum heads....I have my TBSS to play with too

I'll have to see if I can wrangle up one of those pushrod tools. Or just buy one.

03zq8, do you run an aftermarket pan or an auxillary trans cooler? always good insurance with the stall. If you run a standalone cooler instead of running it through the radiator, you will notice a nice drop in trans temps.[/quote]

No man I'm not. I will definitely look into it though. Thanks for the input. I'm gonna order a Walbro 255 pretty soon. I hope it'll make an improvement.

BTW...I keep looking in this thread and the more I look at the pics the more I want that darn Edelbrock 2114!

It might not necessarily make an improvement or noticable difference, But its a more solid base to work with and off of.

98SS, I know exactly what you're saying. I have thought several times about selling all the stuff I have for the zexel and 3.73 swap and just going with a 8.8 rear.

98SS do you know how much power your truck is putting down?

98 SS · 11-08-2009, 07:04 PM

its been a while and a lot has changed. But it put down 313 and 404 at the wheels. 15-18psi with belt slip. The knock sensor doesnt work on my setup so the tune is mild to keep it safe.

All that is changing though
