Heres my 355 stroker that im slowly getting up to scratch
Factory V8 Calais with Factory Sunroof
Now has a VN headed COME 355
Solid Cam, Torque Power single plae, Barry Grant 750
Built trimatic, 2500 TCE stall
Built VL Turbo 28 spline diff with 3.08 gears
Was a skid car when i bought it last year so now im slowly turning it in to a tuff streeter.
In the process of putting in a bigger stall and shorter gears in the diff.
After summernats this year it will come off the road for a full respray to repair the years of skid comp damage.

May 29, 2015 at 10:37 am #7314cheers guys,
Hoping to either wrap or spray the wheels Alpine white to match the car soon.
May 29, 2015 at 11:19 am #7318started work on the weekend on replacing my shifter. had an ugly B&M mega shifter sitting on top of the console which i never liked and was a pain in the ass to use.
Bought a second hand Pro ratchet shifter and a drop box to suit so i can mount it under the factory console.
Turns out when i pulled the old shifter out the previous owner had already done some serious modifications to the trans tunnel and effectively put in a whole new base eliminating the need to use the drop box. Bonus for me i guess.
Old shifter coming out:
new shifter almost in. just have move the sifter back slightly and to trim a few bits under the gear selector display and put it back in and its all done. will look so much better.
May 29, 2015 at 9:37 pm #7328Shifter all done. So much better now.
