Reply to "Cop car engine"

Thanks George. That's the plan, then. 351-W bored and stroked, Viper Spanker and 3.77:1 gears for the ZF. Low ride mainfold and carb. I also want reliablity, simplicity and versatilty. Reliabilty and simplicty: carb. Veratilty: abilty to bolt on more ponies later, much later, like when a project beckons me. I like to always keep wrenching on my Pantera. It just intrigues me and I get a kick out of always having a project to learn about and accomplish.

Now, I have to save up a few bucks. It would be nice to do the ZF and engine at the same time, when they come out. Any idea how much the 3.77 gears cost, ballpark? I have a fix on the engine cost, looks like I'll need to save up for a couple of years. I'm beginning year 3 of Pantera ownership. Never paln to "finish" the projects, just keep evolving the Pantera, with versatilty to go back and change it to stock or whatever I may want. Storage shed full of spare parts and all... stacked away in WD-40 which stands for Water Displacement in the WD part of WD-40. Thanks again, VFI or Ron, whatever you like to call me.
