Any recommendations for parts/upgrades/suppliers are welcome. I plan to use red alto clutches w/ more than stock in each drum and some sort of shift kit. Also plan on hd cooler and bigger pan. Any recommendations for additional upgrades are welcome. Truck will occasionally be used for towing.

There have been several threads about using the 518 behind a bigblock. One member even used it in a truck. I have 2 518's and an UltraBell sitting in the shed...waiting
