Thread: 302 Stroker??

So I'm just about over the flu, but my arms / legs are sore from sanding and buffing and standing / crawling / hunching over and here's where I left it this afternoon. Pics aren't in order but you can figure it out!

I'm exhausted but I'm not sure if I'm hypoglycemic or just tired so I'm gonna go test and find something to eat.. I'll see you'all later.

Well, Good for you! I guess You and Randy were reading the same schedule!?!?

I was busy wrenchin' for to many hours only to also discover that my new front shocks are too short!!!

Well, if they're too short, maybe that's just a sign that you need to lower the front end!!

I can barely sneak out the driveway now! I avoid quite a few places as I'm scared of dragging the frame in / out of the driveway.. Even taking some driveways at an angle is getting old.. Gotta raise it another 3/4 of an inch at least.

Hmmm.....you could always air-bag it so you can raise it up and down when necessary.....unless you want it to look like a 4x4!

You mean something like this??



So far - not a problem

I've got a trans mount that seems to find every speed bump and it appears every driveway is out to snag me and try to hold me right in that spot. Most embarrasing!

And it's worse with 2 in the car.. and I've run out of shock length for adjustment.

Mike, I'm just trying to do for you what Dave (IC2) does for me.....help you with practical solutions and spend your money!!!

BTW, Dave, you'll be happy to know that I ordered a rear mount fuel injection gas tank w/in-tank pump for my truck yesterday! But that's for another thread!

Well it is real comforting to know that you (and IC2) have got my back and are always looking out for my wallet!

With a buddies help (he located on C'list) I got a pair of 390 cfm holley's this morning. Real nice shape and a good price! So we took a step closer. Also got the leaky trans front seal replaced. It was awful cold for too long in the garage and once my feet got cold I gave up and came home. Maybe tomorrow I'll make some more progress.

Good find!!! Should work great on the neat intake!!!!!

I thought so and once I saw someone on here do exactly what I wanted to do ( pair of 390's on a tunnel ram ) and they had great results.. I just knew I couldn't stop! LOL..

So I went ahead and got a trans "re-programming" kit ordered.
There's a B&M setup in there now but I hate it! Thought I'd try this Trans-Go setup.

It's only money right Randy?!?! 8-)
