Was it already an 18-spline with hemi internals as well? Mine is unfortunately not aluminum but for that cost I may give them a call to see what can be done to mine to make it last. If it's not a PITA to drive a pro shifted trans on the street I'd love it! Quote:
I am using an 833 tranny, its an Aluminum over drive case with all the 4 spd guts and built by liberty gears. I had it Super Pro Shifted on 2nd and 3rd gears and just pro shifted on 4th. I shipped it out to Liberty gear in a box they sent it back ready to bolt in for under $1000.00 and that was with an after market aluminum tail housing. They said good for 800 Hp all day long. I have been beating on it for 4 years with just over 400 Hp to the rear tires and has never mist a beat. best 950 dollars I ever spent.

 One of the last big $$$ items I want to have done....even at our power level more like 450hp it just makes sense to me.....by the way, Congrats thats a killer ride you put together 
Now....only to fund the rest of our project...lol

Nice running... sure wants to skate around on you when you hit the pedal... what rpm will you be shifting at on the track.... that 7000 is low(but I guess its fine for the street)

Thanks for the little cruise,Steve! Ya got yourself a REAL runner there! BTW...what RPM was the shift light coming on at?Also..what carb are you running?  Hope you meet your 9-second goal,on motor!  Randy B. 
Shift light was set at 7000 rpm. The carb I had built by Pro systems, it flows a true 960 it was built for my Eng build. I thought maybe a little small for the power, but pro systems guaranties me this carb will get me to the the end of the track the fastest. ? so fare very impressed.
Here is a pic of the Carb
What does this carb cost ballpark? I hae a 750 annular now, but if my engine wants more I might go with something bigger from Pro Systems. I really like what I hear about them. Never any drama...
It was about $800.00 with my shop discount.

nice ride..was that your place of business in the videos...I watched them all...sweet runnin machine..
Ya , My shop is called S&J Auto Service. I started the shop in 1990. I opened my first shop in Vancouver in 1983 Called Steve's Centerline Performance, I was just 20 years old.I have had this Scamp since 1979 I was 15 years old when I bought it. The engine was done so I found a old dodge out in the bush that was left for dead with a blown trany. I built a try-pod out of tree's write there and swapped out the engines, Ive been driving her ever since between all the projects she has encountered.

Open to suggestions on that one, the #s with my set up with 600 hp 2900 lbs 0 slip 4 gear 30" tire 4.88 gears @ 7500 should run between 9.5 and 9.8 at 138 to 141 mph I will be very happy to get a 9.9 and I think there is some rpm to play with here. Car is certified for 8.5s I have not yet licenced for the 9s but hoping to. If the car will dip into the 9s on eng I don't no that I will run the Nos at all ? Your thoughts on that.
