The motor doesn't care what's behind it. You can use a 727 behind it. Just use a manual trans PCM for the motor, as they don't look for feedback from the trans.

Like Steff said its not going to care what car it is in or if the rear tires are big or not. I would think the only challenge would be getting the converter right to handle all the instant torque.

I am looking for ET's on a pro-street application or drag race application....Doesn't look like anyone has done one except Gas Monkey Garage....And for the price of one, I am surprised. When you look at all the builds on here, many approach or exceed what one of these costs.... I am at a cross roads with my G2 and my thinking is these are not getting any more affordable, maybe its time to switch as I got real lucky this week when a part in the valve train failed...

I knew someone would post that...I am looking for some actual feedback....The engines are under $15k, and I never see any in pro-street cars, only resto mods with a stick.... Ron Polidora put one in a 64 Dodge. Beautiful build.

http://soundgermanautomotive.com/talk to this guy about the trans, he supports the trans and software for nag1 and TF-8 swaps.

I think the Pro Street fad died with Disco Dancing
1970 Duster Edelbrock headed 408 5.984@112.52 422 Indy headed small block 5.982@112.56 mph 9.42@138.27

That's exactly what I have been looking at. I talked with Byron, I think his name was about it. They mainly install them in resto mods...No drag race based cars. Seems like the are a bit over 700hp in stock form. I have also talked to Rich at FastManefi about it.... The biggest problem I have is mounting it in my pro street car...

Also looking for real world swap details. How much fab do you need to do to fit one in a 70 e body? Best trans to use? ETs in an old muscle car? Thanks From the pics I have collected, they look small in the engine bay. B & E body's have the same engine bay essentially and a G3 looks tiny in there.... My transmission plan is currently to run my billet drum 727 and my convertor from the 605 Hemi......If I can get the Hellcrate up 100hp, they will be in the same ballpark. But I did see an entire Hellcat drive train with the 8 speed trans and full wiring harness for sale on Racing Junk...I really never looked into the Nag 8 speeds to see of they fit. I would have to change gears in the Dana if I went that route...

Well, unless its bigger than this engine....it will fit in my E-body....My biggest issue is the motor mounts I need to run a motor plate, and to date, nobody has done one for a Hellcrate. The AEI one is for the other NA applications. For the efi I was thinking the Holley Dominator system....

the TF-8 in my 2012 charger is 9" tall at the back mount as an FYI to the differences in new car tunnels

Negative on your negativity....Look up JW Ultra Bell, I have two, one for a big block, and one for a small block...It bolts on to the trans and is easily switched. Best thing that ever happened to a Mopar other than efi
