Stock 4 speed? If so, and it hooks, it's not going to last long with 700hp. Need more pictures!

The new engine has been dyno tested and is ready to go. It is a pump gas 508 with TF 270 heads and a Comp street roller. Made 700 hp with a Sniper XFlow on a ported intake. Should be fun. Car is a four speed with a Dana 60 so we'll see how long the transmission lasts. I would think he went with a roller cam not sft and if so what springs and psi are they?

He is planning to install a 3/8 fuel line. Brake lines will be replaced with reproductions but not moved. It isn't a race car, just a street car with a bunch of power.

He does have a Comp street roller cam. 260/266 at 050. The springs are dual conical with T&D rocker arms.

Andy, do you have any experience with Comps roller rockers? Not the aluminum ones.

Ideal time to examine the "what oil pan clears what cross member?" question.
