well thanks dave and pat for the information the motor is together i got the motor from a buddy that had it in a three quater ton i was going to freshing it up and but a cam in it and then i was thinking after talking to my buddy he said i would need a good set of heads and springs for the cam to work at its best iam just trying to get the motor and transmission ready to go in my truck so all i haft to do is slide it in and go with it the reason i said something about the truck hookin up is cause my first truck was a 49 ford with a 455 big block in it and when you hit it it would just spen unless you was going about 65 mph but yes dave i agree with you i do just wanna deal with one issue at a time thanks for the input thanks
