    Lift measurement

    Im trying to figure out how much lift I have from my rear springs. They are 11 pack and I measured from the bottom of the frame to the top of the 9" housing and got 16.25 inches. Anyone care to measure that height (bottom of frame to top of 9" housing) and compare? Thanks!

    NP205 and exhaust

    I have long tube headers so I'm assuming new headers are needed? I like 2 into 1 down the passenger frame rail but I don't see how with the long tube headers. Anyone do it successfully?

    NP205 and exhaust

    I have a 351 with long tube headers with a C4 and a D20. The exhaust is a true dual exhaust with no cross tubes. Comes right off the headers and follows the frame rail back. I am swapping to a 4R70W and a NP205. What kind of exhaust do you guys with 205s use? Since the 205 sits so close to the...

    351 piston/head

    Yes I would like to keep my pistons as I don't want the cost of a building a new short block. My concern is piston to valve clearance if I go with an aftermarket head with a new camshaft. Are you saying I shouldn't have any issues so a piston change is no needed? Thanks

    Tell me about Dana 60's

    Just a thought...how do you plan to mount the full width D60? Depending on mounting and how much lift the pumpkin can get in the way if you are not carefull. I used extended radius arm mounts and used a '78-'79 HP60 that was shortened to around 65" I think. Not sure what they are stock. Then I...

    351W and 4r70W

    Yes I am carbed. I was hoping not to use them. I thought I read how Dan fabbed a bracket up to use a TPS on his carb. Was this required as part of the Baumanator install or just something extra?

    351W and 4r70W

    Thanks for all the advice. I just read Dan's thread and have no clue about a VSS and a TPS. Do I need these? What are they? How do they work? What do I need? Im lost on electronic stuff. Any help? Thanks!
