Is a free - really free?

He didn't but since he has a 700R4 and the big block had a turbo 400, if he is geared correctly now, it will probably be too low for the big block to be a good freeway car.

 

Hell I see guys on here with 3.23's and 3.08s behind OD's all the time,(although I honestly wonder what the hell they are thinking) so that doesnt mean anything on here.

 

I passed on a free Pontiac 428/400 Turbo, AND the '69 Gran Prix SJ they were STILL in 5 years ago. The guy had bought the car from 15 years before that, and thought I might want it back. I passed because it was rough, he hadn't had it running in several years, and I didn't have a place to park it, nor a use for the engine/trans. Of course, a week later I bought the '51 Pontiac wagon, minus engine and trans, by then he'd found someone to take it off his hands. Sigh...

Glad it's working out for you!

 

Go for it and don't look back.

 

If you PASS on it let me know and i will come get it.....

 

ha Ha, good point!
