New to these forums but it looks like a great place to talk cars. I'm 29 and have been playing with cars since I was 14. I've had my Cuda' since I was 17 and done 1 restoration with help from my dad and 1 hot rodification myself. Unfortunately I blew up the engine and trans on a nitrous pass in a drag race. Grenaded the 727 real good. When I tore it down there was all sorts of scoring and grooving on the inside of the case that pretty much said I destroyed it. Tore down the engine and found 3 cylinders with big FAT grooves in the cylinder walls from ring butting. Bummer. I guess I didnt gap the rings wide enough when I built the 360. So now its time to go with a BB 440. Just trying to decide on the heads right now. I'll post up pics later of the project. Talk to you guys here.
