pulled out the sleeper today..and a termi got his *** handed!
Well..after an exhaust problem the truck hadnt been run in a month or so..that and a few little tweaks later..we decided to run it to the car wash..on the way back kuldnt help but gun it out of the lot and it was sideways qwik. caught the attention of an 03 cobra going the other way and he turned around..right in front of me..a red light..he pulled up next to me and gave me this grin..and revved it a little. i put it in first and just got the stall up..he had no idea what he was about to get..i had just got some drag radials for the truck and this was a good chance to put them to use..at green i hit it and it slipped a little but half way thru first it got traction and an immediate car on him..into second i pulled away and kept pulling..cut it off about 110 and had 3 cars on him..at the next light..he did what the last two cobras did after i handed them..his windows were rolled up and on green he was outta there..lol..it was fun. needless to say i had to stop and put gas afterwards. lol..but it was worth it.

Lol it wasnt four wheel drive, i know what a transfer case looks like, it was a big block with what looked liek a turbo 400 trans and then something slighlty smaller then drive shaft to rear end

I agree, the first engine i put together was when i wa 16 goin on 17, had a 79 malibu with a straight 6, me and my dad bought a 350 from a junk yard out of an 70s impala, bored to a 355 with a small cam, no idea what kind of power it made but it got my 4000lbs malibu to run a 13.8 on street tires
