Has anyone heard of a bell houseing to match a T56 to a BBC and do you think that the T56 will hold up to the torque....This is just an idea for a project 89 Camaro
Check out a company by the name of Quick Time. I think they are in Iowa. They have all kinds of bellhousings for what you want to do.
just out of curiosity, why the t-56 for a BBC? i'm not really that informed about mix-matchin transmissions w/ motors but isn't the t-56 geared for a small block hence the 6 speed? i just don't know if a t-56 is a great idea for a BBC.... just my $.02 but i'm sure i will be corrected

Ordered the 408 from LME. Callies/Callies/Wiseco (coated). Should have 11.75:1 with 66 cc combustion chambers. ARP rod bolts, main studs and head studs. Should be a couple weeks before it's here. Waiting to hear back from Brain @ LME for a cam recommendation. My shortblock and cam are for sale.

Good deal! The AFR heads will like the bigger bore of the 408. What CR will you be at with your heads? Did the heads need decked at all? Shuold be able to adjust CR with gaskets I imagine. Your cam has to be close to what you need, BUT better to get a brand new one anyways....
What are you asking for the short block? Do we know the damage yet? I imagine the pistons/rods/crank are fine...block should be ok as well...

Haven't really decided on a value for the shortblock. I looked up a new Lunati crank and it was $2k. Lunati connecting rods and pistons were almost $2000, IIRC. Maybe take $3k for the shortblock and cam?
Of course, the heads aren't even off the car, so something could be wrong with the rotating assembly. That'd be my luck. Huge hole in one of the pistons or something.
Probably going to need bigger injectors and maybe a restall on the converter. Going to call PI soon for their recommendations. Brian said this motor will be happy @ 7k, so I would think a 4200 stall would be a good street/strip compromise. I hope Nate and Mike M. can get the fuel system sorted out. I'd go external pump, but that's $2k, or more, I don't have.

I dunno, maybe a place called Quick Time? I've heard the possibility that they're in Iowa.

I am not too sure on that to be honest. I dont know if the 6-speed would be good for that or not I am helpin dad out with finding info on what stick would be good and if it would hold up or not. I am concerned that it will never use the 6th gear. So would the older 5-speed tranny be as strong or better geared?

SHouldnt need new injector, they are the Ford green top 49 lbs...I would imagine they will be good for a lot NA

Well, since shit is weak in here today, here's some action. T/A vs Me vs Tony's Rx7. Also may want to check out the other videos on Tony's youtube profile.

WHose TA is that, and why does he think he has 700+rwhp...that would be enough to shit all over your 636!!!!!!!!!! You ran what mid to high 11's at low to mid 120's? That TA should be good for 140-145 mph in the 1/4

Just checking to see if anyone wants to meet up to head down to muncie tomorrow. Leaving my house at 5. Oh and nick, just checking to see if you noticed the extra set of headlights at the end of the video

Can't remember what the guy's name is, but I'm told it's 715whp with an air filter and 800whp+ with out an air filter (I am NOT making this shit up) 383ci with a d1sc and a 9". From how it ran compared to the bike I honestly think it's a stock motor with a blower. Upper 400s low 500 whp range. My 415 whp 2400lbs civic beat my bike by a half a car from a 45 roll. 636s should run low 10s at mid-low 130s but i fail epicly at launching this thing and have ran mid 11s at mid-high 120s. I relly don't know what the deal is with that thing, Blake saw it launch as was unimpressed as well
However, that RX7 is SIIIIIIIIIIIICK. And it's still on pump gas, it's built for E85 but he keeps blowing out the spark on his LS2 truck coils at high boost

get your what nots done and bring it out again this weekend
Just sayin, I thought I saw some, looked sorta like a s10
nah, it couldn't be. trucks are slow especially 4 banger 2.2L trucks
God this city is getting nuts. In a good way, like how nuts on top of your peanut buster parfait is a good thing, or if your luke, how nuts on your chin is a good thing
WHats all done to the RX7...never heard of truck coils having difficulty maintaing spark! those things are used on 1500 hp builds!!!
RX7 does look impressive on a kick!
Fucking TA is no ways near 700 rwhp, I think your right, stock with blower, he probably bought it that way someone told hime a bunch of shit, and he doesnt know any better
