lol, yah, that's kinda what we were talking about... I was tellin him you've had no issues with your setup, but considering the turbo Grand National-based engine he's puttin together, I don't know if your 4.9 would be in the same range as far as torque...?
I know your motor was modified, but I don't remember ever actually discussing any actual numbers on it...
again, as long as he keeps the boost down, and/or drives civilized, it will be OK for a while, anyway, lol
Like I was also tellin him, I was planning to use an Izuzu for my swap too... at least until I can afford the 6-spd swap...
Of which, I found out yesterday that there's now another gearing option available... the new Buick Regal GS has a 6-speed manual option for this year... behind a 270hp turbo 2.0L, lol
