First, I would like to say hello to everyone!!!
My name is Kman and i am starting my first build, she is a 1982 Cutlass that is mainly gonna be a street ride. I have recently pulled a late model 350 with a 350 turbo transmission. I purchased a 383 a week ago, it was Dyno tested at 420hp. I am planning on putting the 350 turbo transmission back in do you think that is a good idea or should i look for something different? I have been looking into the Ford 9in rear end and i am almost 99% sure that's the way I am gonna go. I have very little knowledge about suspension's, but I know that my factory suspension will not be enough for what I am planning for my baby. I would appreciate any suggestions that can be thrown my way.
P.S. I am planning on taking some pic's and posting them within the next week.
Thanks
Kman

(ok ok I'll fess up -- my uncle who is building the engine for me said he would charge me 2x as much if I put a ford rearend in the BU, or pour glass beads in the oil if I put it in after the engine was installed)
