Hey Franz, that 409 runs as good or better than it looks, I helped Jim put it on the dyno.:) ........ just don't let enyone mess with the carbs or the timing. It's all ready to move one of those mountains.

Hi everyone. Yes I've been absent for a couple of months I think.
I had a huge reaction to a couple of radiation treatments. They call it a radiation flare. They tell me it doesn't happen very often. For the last 2 months I have been extremely sick because of it. I've started to come out of it...
When first installed the 409 & 700R4 the car had 3.36 gears in it. I wasn't happy with it because I never would get the trans into hi gear around town. On the freeway I had to be going 70 or so MPH for it to be happy. For my driving which I'm guessing is 70% around town or on secondary roads...
Just my opinion.........
It is very cool......... but for the money it's not an idea. As soon as you put it together and fire it there is no difference between it and a 409 that's bored .030.
