This is my buddy rodney's ranchero.
We put this car toghether last year and had it dynoed at livernios here in michigan.
300 rear wheel horse, not flywheel, which is estimated at about 500 hp or so at the fly wheel.
It has a small block 302 ( 306 ) bored with forged pistons, h-beam rods, 650 lift cam, cast iron 200 cc heads with 2.02 valves and roller rockers ( chevy rocker conversion ), tri springs and roller lifters/ chain.
It has an over volume oil pump with spring and remote filter/ cooler.
Full length headers, 3" exhuast with 50 series flows and 4" pipes to end the system.
I would state all of the other parts, but you can see them in the pics.
The tranz is a c-6 with shift improver/ bands/ pump/ valve body/ ect...
It has a shortened 9" with a 456.1 rear gear ratio.
This thing is sick, the car wieghs nothing and acceleration is amazing for what we have done to it.
I would say it's in the high 9's low 10's now, but we need to get it to the track this year after we put the N.O.S on it, it may be faster than that.
