Got my new driveline back from Quality Repairs in Danville yesterday. When asking about shortening my existing driveline, Bryon told me that it was built for about 100 horsepower and probably wouldn't hold up under the 300 HP I was putting in and said I should go for a whole new setup. Turned out great and when I asked Matt if it would take the 300 HP I was putting in, he smiled and said, "this baby will take 800 Hp if you want it to". Enough said. I did a quick line up with the dummy tranny and rearend and looks like it will fit fine. You will notice the new one is about 6 3/4 inches shorter than the original, that takes care of the bigger 350 V8 block and longer 700R4 transmission.
Gas tank is ordered from "Tanks" in Monticello Iowa and should be here by the end of the week. Also ordered a cab mount kit from National Parts Depot in Canton Michigan. That should be here by the end of the week.
Gonna get cold outside soon and will have to move my Mig welder inside and start working on fenders and running boards.
