is with the 408 sold u

congrats on the time.

is with the 408 sold u

Yeah it was. I ran that pass making 5psi of oil pressure at idle. It was the end of the year so I said eff it and ran. When I got home I cut the oil filter apart and it had copper flake in it. Bearings got hurt. I won't have time to take it apart for a couple weeks though. It may not be too bad, the motor didn't make any noise.

wow still ran decent number lol keep me updated

I just looked at the datalog and used a converter slip calculator... 21%! It should have a ton left in it when it's fixed and has the right converter. If you watch the vid it shifts into 2nd really quick. I think it was blowing through the converter straight to my shift point.

tried opening ur video wat open u got another link

Wat kind exhaust u got? sounds good!

1 3/4 Pacesetters into a Pacesetter Y pipe with a piece of straight pipe into a 3" glasspack with a turndown. The end of the Y pipe necks down to 2 3/4 so I'm sure it was a restriction lol. I want to get some 1 7/8 headers and a better Y pipe or true duals for next year.

not bad their skippy lol

Yeah not bad for all the stuff that was a little less than optimal lol

Congrats, hope the motor isn't hurt too bad.

Thanks man, me too. It didn't make any noise so it may not be. May need to turn the crank 10/10 worst case scenario, but hopefully just a polish. There was no steel in the oil filter, only copper flake.

what kind of harmonic balancer was or still on the 408 u ought from me and wat kind of rockers?

also wou;d u be able to take couple pics for me of motor

It's still exactly the way it was when I bought it from you down to the TB, flex plate, and the motor mounts.


Here's a couple. It's dirty and apart though

I don't even know what kind of balancer it is. Some kind of SFI balancer. Factory rocker arms and a Hughes SFI flexplate
