Thread: Tell me about a 400 sb

Tweet

I sounds like you know exactly what I'm looking for, a driver with decent power, not looking for every pony possible.If I would use shorty headers,would I gain much and would that change the receipt for parts? The choices for exhaust on this car come down to 2 1/2 true duels with pressure bends hooking to manifolds. Or shorties with a y pipe going to a single 3 then splits to 2 1/2's to a dual muffler in the rear. At least that's all I can find on the internet, they really limited what you can do under this car, It's pretty tight under there. Right now it has 3:42 gears that can easily be changed because it's a non posi rearend. I'll be getting a different one to swap it with so any gear ratio is possible.It will be getting 4 speed trans also.Thanks a lot for advice on this. I would like to get the exhaust ordered and throw that on the 305 for now and do the engine and trans swap later this winter. My banker has cut my funds until some stuff sells, I sleep with her so I better listen I will need more learning info on the pinch point but I might as well wait till I get the donor motor out and apart.
