Are you ******* me? Mine starts to shake like a mother at 80!

I got tire shake, but that was expected since for some reason they won't hold a balance. :roflsquared:

Glides right along otherwise....no shake in the wheel or anything. 2800rpm at 105.....lol Sometimes you gotta love 3.55s and 33s. :crazy:

My truck is slow. :roflsquared:
What's crazy is it never kicked down because I applied throttle slowly, only want to a little more than half throttle I think. :naughty:

105 is movin pretty good for a 4x4. But I bet you'd hate my truck I've had the speedo buried when it was also not reading the correct speed. My best guess would be around the 135MPH range when I finally let off!! Haha this was before it was lowered to.

Removed some parts from my truck but lost it I think:crazy:


Looking good man!! Can't wait to see some more progress on this build!!

Oh as for my truck I did nothing again today but it will be back home on Saturday morning!!! :D

We did however get the trans installed back into the Cuda tonight. So now as soon as we get the new driveshaft home (looking like Monday) we can get the car out of the shop and move my truck in for the final rebuild touches!!

105 is conservative too since it's 3mph slow....soooo 108-110. :crazy:
I got to 80 before I said nah lets not blow up my truck today lol
Won't blow it up. Turning lot enough RPMs. :naughty:

Haha I wish. I'll be lucky if I ever get to even drive that car anytime soon!! That car has seen plenty of burnouts from my uncles over the 30 years he owned the car. We've still got the line lock hooked up even, just incase we feel like playing around ;)

I didn't get to drive this car last summer but I did get to cruise around in my grandpas 74 road runner a couple times last summer haha

I used to have a bunch of stickers on my truck but peeled them all off a year or two ago. My truck actually got faster without them ;)




Nothing fancy. The cuda has a 340 bored .040 over with a very small cam that's barely bigger than stock.

The road runner just has a stock 318.

My grandpa likes keeping things stock and original as much as possible usually. Still fun cars to cruise around in though.
