Blueprint 383

Well my LG4 went to 305 heaven the other day, and I am now looking for a new motor. Summit and Jegs have this motor http://www.jegs.com/i/Blueprint+Engi...30CT1/10002/-1 They also sell a 355 around the same power. Not sure which one would be better for every day driving.

The only reason I am hesitating on buying it is the power. Can a stock 700r4 and a 10 bolt 7.5" with a stud girdle and locker take this power or no?

maybe you guys can recommend something else for me if that's not good. I plan on driving my car every day.

thanks

Re: Blueprint 383

the axle will with street tires but not drag radials. as for the transmission thats definite no go hoss.

you would need the minimum of a transgo reprogramming kit and a good aftermarket converter, i'd highly reccomend a built r4 though.
