If you get tired of them let me know, I would be interested in them.

I have a "waggy 44" and a ford 9 inch under my TJ I will be putting up for sale in the next couple weeks.

Land Rover was impressive to be on street tires.

Squeak, man I never heard that horn until you were right beside me LOL. I wasn't trying to hold you up at all. I had a blast, this was the first time racing a RZR for me. The course was great, the rock downhill section was rough but other than that I had a great time. The short course was...

Im betting it was the R&P or it broke the broached spool. In my opinion GM did it with the 14 bolt, I have been running them for the past 5 years or so maybe longer I cant remember. Been with Yukon gears since I built my first set, pretty sure the only reason mine broke was lake of gear oil...

I like it for a budget build. Makes tons of torque and good HP. It will also spin up as fast as you want due to the fairly short stroke. Actually its a 4.25 stroke, 4.310 bore. Mine is 4.25 stroke with a 4.320 bore making it a 498 but I just call it a 496.

Marine Cast block that is 4 bolt main on all 5 Main caps (RARE). Merlin Aluminum heads, on average it stays pretty warm. I don't have a huge radiator and I think it would run a lot cooler if I did. The engine usually settles around the 200-210 range at the filler neck on the intake. At...

Yes, I was running a 714/322 off the shelf. It ran real well.

Its just what I built with what I could afford. My engine builder PeeWee at Riverside Machine has been begging me to build something bigger with an aftermarket block. I just cant afford it, mine has had a few come aparts but mostly self inflicted.

Mine is not a small block but I have real numbers for you. My specs are: 496"BBC 4.25 stroke, 4.320 bore 6.385 Rods Lunati 4340 Forged Crank, H Beam Rods 14:1 JE Pistons 755/305@50 Comp Custom Grind Solid roller cam Triple Comp Valve springs #300 pounds of seat pressure Merlin "Grumpy...

Did this ever happen?

400 turbo 205 and 5.38 in my chunks. 1st gear is pretty much useless for what I do other than pulling it in the trailer. I am happy with the way mine performs in 2nd and 3rd right now. I think the 4.10s would be stronger due to the larger pinion but I have never broke a 5.38, setup is key to...

Well people are wondering how they are holding up?

Re: Yes sir Robert Roach is still running them, Shane Keller built those axles a long time ago at least 8 years or so.

I think he is running Mark Williams 3rds which are only good to like 3500 HP.
