    Hi,

    I just registered today because I am getting close to getting my 10 year 1956 Dodge Seirra project viable as a daily driver. The car has a 440 engine with a A518 OD trans, a Dakota frontend (power R&P steering, disk brakes and airbags), a 8.8 rearend with disks (has air shocks and watts link but I will be changing to a Corvette Dana 44 lurking in my garage soon), a custom 30 gallon stainless steet tank and a '66 GM tlit column. The interior is not restored except the dash is painted as are the interior window frames. I have all but a 6 pieces of the 120 chrome parts and all the glass.

    I plan to drive it abit to work out the bugs and after it has a few hundred miles on it, I will install EFI and a Vortec blower. My goal is to get about 650 ft-lbs of torque to the wheels. That might mean changing the heads to the Edelbrock RPM.

    Best regards,

    John :Handshake:
