Hello g-body folk,
I just ran across a running ready to drop in Olds 425. I don't know much about this engine (I originally planned for a 455) but from what i've heard, the 425s are pretty badass and RARE!! The only problem is that it's $1k for complete engine. He has a video of it running and it sounds good and looks to be in good shape, is this too much to pay?? I don't plan on racing, but I wanted a torque monster to do burnouts and spin donuts with ease. Also, what transmission would you recommend to handle that amount of torque and still be able to cruise down the highway/freeway. I know this is a loaded question, but this is ALOT of money to shell out on a working man's budget, THANKS FOR ANY INFO FELLAS!!! 😀
