thats a pretty good deal. you could probably find an engine for around 5/600 and have the whole thing done for around 1k.

 

well...heres an update!!!

i bought the transmission for 425
im looking at this engine for 700
im gettnig quotes on a paint job at the dealer that nathan used to work at
and im about a couple weeks away from starting the whole transformation of my truck

i was a lil worried abotu the color that i wanted to go with on my truck...nathan wants to go with the original PLUM CRAZY PURPLE color off of the challenger/charger...but ill be the one driving a purple truck!?!?!?

ill make a poll in the OT

 

I'm happy with the 4.7 in my 04, but wasn't to happy with the tranny, and the way it shifted. There is a speed shop about an hour from me that does engine and tranny modifications called Brougher's. I called them, and he said to bring it in, and he'd "tweek" the tranny. He told me not to waste the money doing anything to it. Being it is electronic, he could program the shift points. He used a lap top and did so until I was happy. When you pull out now, it will keep on pulling until you very slightly let off the gas. Also, if your kinda getting on it, it will shift into second , and the truck pulls like crazy. I'm real happy I had that done. Feels like an old day shift kit was installed, and only cost $50. The Tech said the newer tranny's will take a beating if you keep clean fluid and filters in them.

 

....sig worthy

 

wheres this???

 

what ever happened to you leaving us and getting a Pontiac GTP?

Regardless, if it all works out it will be sick as ****!

 

ummm..the guy that i was gonna buy it off of sold it lik 20 mins before i could get there...so hes a douche..

i was looking at the extreme s10...but he wanted to much for it and nothing for my truck

and there was the idea of getting a honda RR600..but he sold it b4 i could get the money



either way...im installing a shiftkit and a tuner for the trans...and probably HO cams/intake for the engine
