TexasA&M Captain Registered: 10/11/04 Posts: 141 Loc: Austin Texas	heads are dart heads and already had a good coating on them, so we left them alone. Can barely see them under the hood anyway. Transmission is a built 700r4 (overdrive). Holley is a 670cfm Truck Avenger. _________________________ '05 Sea Ray 185 Sport

seabuddy Admiral Registered: 12/15/02 Posts: 28024	Now thinking of getting a higher milage car instead of a Tahoe for my one way to get around. The Admiral has her's, so we can switch back and forth for now.
