Welcome ! Car looks great . Very nice father son project. What is the specs of the new engine. Way to go on keeping it Olds powered

So this is what the build is making for power.

Now I am building a 2004R brf code transmission and swapping out the rear with 8.5 posi with 3.42 and drive shaft with 1350 yokes. Also will be installing lightning rods, so that may be a bit interesting. Also try to properly set the transmission so it doesn't burn out. Running a 750 brawler, so be some different connections there.
